BLUE SNAKES & BANJOS

Radio has always been a place to discover great music. “Blue Snakes & Banjos” carries on that tradition each week as Bob Hust and Bill Thompson feature the best songs — old and new —  from artists they have loved for many years and others they have just discovered.  The best songs transport people to a time and place.
That’s the foundation of BS&B.

Come for the music,
stay for the charm 

Bob returned to the show for the first time in a month, but barely had time to catch up before Amy McFarland and her band (Chris Kepes, John Matre and Jim Mason) turned the studio into a Tiny Desk Concert.
