Holiday Blues on WHQR!

When it comes to Christmas music the Blues has its fair share, and then some. From the familiar strains of "Merry Christmas Baby" by Charles Brown to Lynn August's "Christmas by the Bar-B-Que," there are hundreds of holiday Blues and R&B cds, containing thousands of familiar and original tunes. Front Street Blues presents its take on a blue Christmas, and it's sure to please. Tune in Saturday, December 20 at 11:00 pm and again (for an encore performance) on Saturday, December 27 for an hour of yuletide Blues from artists like Lowell Fulson, Earl King, Koko Taylor, Elvis Presley & Wynonna Judd, Rod Piazza & The Mighty Flyers, Brian Setzer, Kenny Neal, Roomful Of Blues, and more. Lan Nichols will host. Listen at 91.3fm or visit our webpage at www.whqr.org and click on the 'Listen Live' button.

A Wilmington resident since 1993, Lan began his tenure as on-air host for WHQR’s Front Street Blues in 2003, later adding operations and information technology to his duties, as well as production & logistical support for the long-running music series, Soup To Nuts Live!. He also provides images, video, and written content to WHQR.org.
