2004 - LIVE FROM THE ISLANDS presents
"Ossman's Audiola" on KSER 90.7, Everett
Saturdays - Noon to 2pm

"Live from the Islands" from The Burning Word Poetry Festival at 
Greenbank Farm on Whidbey Island, scheduled for today's April 24th
broadcast, will be heard instead, tape-delayed, on May 15th.

Due to a technical problem, the show cannot be broadcast
live this week, and we apologize for any confusion.

We hope you will join us today, April 24 Noon to 2pm,
for "Ossman's Audiola," as David Ossman presents
"1955 – My Favorite Year."

On May 1st and 8th, the "Audiola" presents "Black Magic," a two-part 
program on the great, but rarely heard, all-African-American-cast Broadway 
reviews and musicals, on stage shortly after the turn of the 20th century and 
continuing through the 1920s and ‘30s.  

On May 15th, "Live From The Islands," hosted by Judith Walcutt and
David Ossman, returns to KSER 90.7 from Noon until 2pm, with a  
broadcast from Greenbank Farm for the Burning Word Festival,
sponsored by the Washington Poets Association, recorded April 24.
Judith and David host a two-hour program of poetry, music and interviews.

On May 22nd, the Audiola spins tunes by jazz cornetist Bix Biderbecke,
including the very earliest recordings by Bing Crosby (with Bix in the
band) and new versions of Bix’s music by Geoff Muldauer.

Ossman and Walcutt will be producing and co-hosting, along with other 
regional community radio hosts when “Live From The Islands” and KSER 
visit The Northwest Folklife Festival over the Memorial Day weekend, 
May 29-31, at Seattle Center.  

Live coverage of the three-day Folklife Festival will be heard on seven
“I-5 Corridor” Community Radio stations from Bellingham to Astoria, 
all serving a mission to entertain and enlighten  their local audiences
independently of mass media and to continue the tradition of local
focus, public access, and training that community radio 
established over 50 years ago.  

Coverage begins at 11 AM and continues throughout the day on 
most stations carrying which include KUGS-Bellingham, 
KSVR-Mount Vernon, KSER-Everett, KBCS-Bellevue, 
KAOS-Olympia, KBOO-Portland, and KMUN-Astoria.

Live coverage of the Choochokam Festival of the Arts on July 10th
and 11th will celebrate a year of “Live From The Islands” on KSER.
