American Routes
Saturdays 6 – 8 p.m.
Produced in New Orleans, American Routes presents a broad range of American music — blues and jazz, gospel and soul, old-time country and rockabilly, Cajun and zydeco, Tejano and Latin, roots rock and pop, avant-garde and classical. Host Nick Spitzer explores the shared musical and cultural threads in these American styles and genres of music — and how they are distinguished. From PRX.
