KVSH-LP Shines its Work Day Spotlight on Music

Now Islanders at their desks and in local Vashon businesses can count on a steady diet of music on KVSH-FM throughout each weekday.

As always, the “Morning Scramble” kicks off the weekday from 8 to 11 am, with a different team of personalities each morning bringing their own unique musical sensibilities to the airwaves.

From 11am to 3pm, Caitlin Little hosts the “Midday Island Mix,” playing only songs from artists who have lived, played, or recorded on Vashon Island.

The Jazz Block from 3 to 4pm features Bill Wood’s “Jazz Guy” and John Midgley’s “Jazz Kaleidoscope” taking turns bringing jazz to the work place.

A brand new Four O’clock Music Block brings two familiar shows and three new ones to the KVSH airwaves. Rik Reed’s hit show “R.E.S.P.E.C.T.”, a one-hour homage to Motown and rhythm and blues, airs Monday at 4pm. On Tuesday, Drew and Doug Pine’s wonderful “Classic Rock and Beyond” takes you all over the Rock ‘n Roll musical map.
Wednesday brings a brand new show to the VoV lineup – “The Moody Hour” hosted by well-known Island performer and visual artist, Arlette Moody. She promises eclectic music from all genres. Another new show settles in at 4pm on Thursdays – “Conscious Sound” with Chai Ste. Marie, a reggae devotee who promises a lively and relaxing trip through the world of reggae. And on Fridays at 4pm, it’s the return of “Strange Cargo” with DJ Michael Whitmore, who will spin tunes from his collection of nearly 10,000 vinyl LPs and 45 singles.

Voice of Vashon is making these schedule adjustments in part to make it easier for Island businesses to play KVSH in their stores. We’re also trying to bring a steady diet of music, music, and more music to the increasing numbers of Islanders who listen to VoV at their desks.

Listen to these shows and live VHS sports broadcasts at 101.9 FM or stream KVSH through our free web app or at www.voiceofvashon.org.
