Hello Poppies! It is July and it is time for my annual celebrate a state series. And as is tradition I always start with my home state of CA. And this celebration we do a vertical tasting of hits from CA artists capped off by a solid hour of new and good music from my East Bay neck of the woods. Enjoy!
PopOff! is an “anything goes” musical show hosted by me DJ Bear. Every episode is a unique sonic road trip through the multitudes of genres, eras, and musicians in recorded music. So if you have an open mind for musical exploration climb into the PopOff! Bubble and let’s get to it!!
Also join me at The Bear Cave for my live streamed shows on KBEAR Radio. I put the roar in more musical variety.
Current Schedule:
Thurs. at 7 PM PST: Theme Thursday, a new theme or tribute every week.
Friday Drive at 5: Smooth grooves 5 PM PST followed by 2 or more hours of disco dance action at 6.
Sunday 12 Noon: Country BBQ, all the best in country, honky-tonk swing and roots music
Plus random pop ups where I pop off about more musical topics on many other days either 11AM or 7PM PST.
FOLLOW ME ON MIXCLOUD WHERE I STREAM LIVE FROM THE BEAR CAVE TO HEAR EVEN MORE MUSIC.
