Hope you all enjoy the music on my show. It's made up of a large dose of Zydeco, along with some Blues, Country, Americana, Hawaiian, Tex-Mex, and Celtic. If I've left anything out, please let me know. I will try to update my playlists as often as I can. Recent additions to my playlist are cuts by guitar greats Pete Anderson and Gregg Wright, as well as new music from Danny Trashville. Artists, if you have any music that you would like to have played on my station, please send me a copy. If I feel that it fits in with the general direction of this station, I will be happy to play it. Enjoy, Dennis
