This one is more on the overground tip, but should prove innaresting.  “Arts in the City” is hosted by the Penn IUR (full disclosure: they’re my 9-5) and the main act, in my opinion, is Nick Spitzer, host of American Routes, probably the best radio show on air right now if you care about American music with a capital-A.  Based in New Orleans, he has a preference for all things Louisiana, Gulf Coast, and Delta, but delves deep into the corners of just about every form of traditional American music, as well as plenty of contemporary sounds.

Take a listen to the February 10th show, a kind of Mardi Gras wrap-up.

p.s. Registration is free to penniur@pobox.upenn.edu but space may be limited.
