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 Mamma Mia from 2008.

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.

We’re almost there! 2020 will be the final year of this century’s second decade, and we’re seeing in the new year in style in our traditional Mosen Explosion new year special. It’s coming live from New Zealand, which means we get to try 2020 on for size before it gets to the rest of the world.

Yes, it's still the holiday season, so I thought I'd give you the gift of one more chance to listen to the Christmas edition of Mushroom FM's premier Celtic music show! We've got songs, stories, and of course a whole lot of fun. So, tune in tonight at 8:00 PM Eastern, or catch the replay on Friday at 4:00 AM Eastern. The archive will also be properly updated in a couple of days, and you can find it at: http://www.mushroomfm.com/sarahillis. Merry Christmas again, and I wish you all the best as we approach 2020!

Greetings fellow music travelers.

For the final session of The Depths of the decade, I have a special feature for you in the first hour of our journey together. We are going to go deep inside the studio as Frank Zappa leads a stellar group of world-class musicians through recording the basic tracks for what would become his ground-breaking second solo album, "Hot Rats."

Then, we'll explore other historically-significant treasures from the past that were unearthed during this decade from Santana, Humble Pie, Joe Cocker, John Coltrane and more.

Like Snow White FM, The Early Years doesn't take a break either, even if there are those who wish it would. That's because The Early Years precedes Snow White FM and Snow White FM follows The Early Years. Cool that.
Syntactically, it's the end of the decade even though the Common Era started in year 1 not year 0. 60 years ago, the fifties decade was becoming the sixties decade even though the purists dispute that; just like they believe that 2020 is the end of a decade rather than the beginning of one.

In the first hour of SnowWhiteFM this week, we'll find out just who actually had a white christmas this year, and it wasn't you. We'll hear about the highway patrol officer who could run 60 miles per hour, and hear all the stupid holidays that you might otherwise have missed. That plus a great lineup of tunes from the late 60's.
Hour 2 features a rundown of the current weather around the nation, a look at this day in history, and a fun trip into the early 70's. And, we'll have coffee with Ed Potter.
And hour 3 is just some of the best darned music on the planet.

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 New Year's Eve from 2011.

As we do on Christmas day every year, Bonnie and I, with some guest appearances from the bananas and others, are live with A Mosen Family Christmas on Mushroom FM. As always, it can be heard on Christmas day at 2 PM Eastern, 7 PM in the UK, that’s on Boxing Day at 8 AM in New Zealand.

We’ll have some great old Christmas stories and songs, and catch up with people from around the world about their Christmas day and how it went or is still going.

If you missed all or some of the awesome fun and the great music you voted for, we're replaying the countdown in its entirety. The 10 hour musical and social media extravaganza begins right after Steve Cutways Canadian Christmas special at midnight Eastern as we head into Christmas morning, that's 5 AM in the UK, 6 PM in New Zealand.

Do tune in to hear the songs everyone voted for as well as some of the silliness that accompanied the music by way of our Christmas party.

One more chance to hear the 2019 countdown, exclusive to Mushroom FM.
