Join new fun guy Ronnie Sevean as he takes you on a Musical History Tour

Join Ronnie Sevean on Mondays at 6 AM Eastern, repeated on Fridays at 6 PM Eastern for the Musical History Tour.

Since the age of 8, Ronnie Sevean wanted to either play professional soccer or be a DJ. After his college playing career didn't yield any pro contracts, he turned to his Communications education and went into radio in the NYC market..the most competitive, cut-throat broadcasting market there is on this or any other planet!

It's All Things Welsh in Honour of St. David's Day, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Sara Hillis here to tell you that we've got a positively cracking Celtic show this week! We're honouring all things Welsh as the show is being aired on March 1, which is St. David's Day in Wales. We've got lots of Welsh music, and the best part is that I'll be using a braille display this week so I can read the Welsh titles and artists correctly, or well, more correctly than I can using my screen reader by itself. I've never done this before in a broadcasting situation, so join me as I break what is for me new technological ground live on air!

Memphis Slim this week on The Juke In The Back!

The Juke In The Back” focuses on the “soul that came before rock n’ roll,” the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.

Something old and something new but nothing borrowed or blue this week on The Early Years!

And after The Mosen Explosion comes to an end tomorrow, join me for The Early Years where you'll hear the best music from Rock and Roll's Golden Age (its first quarter century) with an occasional nod to other decades and genres.
Something old and something new but nothing borrowed or blue this week. Between June 10 and September 30, 2018, I did five shows featuring "jaw-dropping songs" and you've heard four of them.

We're Leaping into another Mosen Explosion

This show has been going on in some form or other for well over 20 years now, but this is the first time it’s ever been on a leap day! And just think, if we were still on Sundays like we were this time last year before my job change, we’d have missed out again. So what a worthy thing to celebrate!

Coming up on Saturday at the Described Movies: Leap Year

Only on Mushroom escape:

From this Saturday at 2am Eastern, that’s 8pm Saturday in NZ, 6pm in Sydney and 7am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movie Leap Year from 2010.
Leap Year is a 2010 Irish-American romantic comedy film directed by Anand Tucker and written by Harry Elfont and Deborah Kaplan.
Loosely based on I Know Where I'm Going and It Happened One Night. The film stars Amy Adams and Matthew Goode.

Groove Records this week on The Juke In The Back!

The Juke In The Back” focuses on the “soul that came before rock n’ roll,” the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.

And yet even more jaw-dropping songs this week on The Early Years!

After The Mosen Explosion comes to an end, join me for The Early Years where you'll hear the best music from Rock and Roll's Golden Age (its first quarter century) with an occasional nod to other decades and genres.
When I welcomed back the Mushroom FM New Zealand contingent after its Summer break a month ago, I suggested that my time for a break might be coming. I didn't know it would be so soon but I'm taking February off. As a result, there will be no completely new shows this month but fear not friends, because you'll still be entertained.

The "Live at Leeds" you've never heard, a Bust Benefit, and commemorating a late legend this week on The Depths

Greetings fellow music travelers.

This week's journey through The Depths will be our last one together for a while as I will be going on indefinite hiatus to take care of some work and family things.

For our final trip together for a while, I have some special features planned.

Gone but not Forgotten, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Sara Hillis just popping in to say that I'm not able to be present for a live edition of Come by the Hills this Sunday, but you've got an encore presentation from last July to keep you company. It's full of interesting music and fun banter as usual, and if you were busy on July 14, 2019 and couldn't hear it then, well, here's your chance!
