First Radio Show

by

Hello! My name is Blake and I am very honored and thrilled to become a regular DJ on Asheville FM! The Gilded Cauldron is a free form radio show, meaning you will hear a variety of genres. You will always hear international music, especially Indian or Indian inspired songs. You will also hear folk, classic country, avant-garde, jazz, blues, and more!

Aside from training and substituting for other DJs, this will be my first time officially having a radio show and I am beyond excited! I hope you find something that interests you, catalyzes creativity, or allows you to bask in something familiar. I play mostly records from my collection, though sometimes I will use other formats as well. I tend to focus on music that is acoustic, strange, traditional, and/or music from outside of the U.S., but you will hear a variety of music that I consider great.

Then, you’ll hear Callie and Heather of Friends of the Woods talking about their campaign to save the UNCA woods, 45 acres in Asheville’s Five Points neighborhood from destruction by the university in a scheme to build a 5,000 seat soccer stadium, market rate housing and retail spaces.
