DJ: Brady Fowler
The Hoya Blues will take listeners on an auditory journey through what is arguably the most important genre in music. The show will focus on the progression of the Blues from its humble beginnings in the Mississippi Delta to its crucial role in rock and roll. Blues riffs and thematic elements have been recycled and reinvented throughout the years, thus the show will also play multiple versions of the same song, highlighting differences and similarities.
