Marc's Hot Licks redux, Friday, August 27 6-8 pm
Sat 02 09 PM | Don O
Some of you long time KNON listeners may remember Marc's Hot Licks which used to be on KNON on Monday mornings back in the 80's and 90's. Marc used to play a great mix of pre-war acoustic blues and boogie woogie piano and his show was much loved by many KNON listeners. I recently re-connected with Marc, after many years, and I invited him to come back and do a special edition of Marc's Hot Licks on my radio show some Friday night. Well, the date has been set and Marc will be back in the KNON studio on Friday, August 27th between 6 pm and 8 pm

Southwest Blues Benefit
Wed 07 45 PM | JMAC
There is a benefit this Sunday (July 11, 2010) at Pearl in Dallas for Southwest Blues Magazine. Southwest Blues is, hands down, the single best source for information about Blues music, Blues artists, Blues recordings, and everything having to do with the Blue scene in North Texas. And, unlike the Internet, it is portable!
Marc's Hot Licks
Tue 05 20 PM | JMAC
I had a great surprise on the air last night. My old buddy Marc Tuton was in the area and stopped by to say hello. Marc is the reason I've had a show on KNON for almost 23 years and it was great to get a chance to catch up.
First Annual Harmonica Blowout
Tue 04 59 PM | JMAC
The First Annual Harmonica Blowout at Pearl on June 27th was an outstanding show. It had three of the important “B” vitamins: Blues, Barbecue, and ice cold Beer. What better way to spend a hot Texas summer day?
