MUSIC NEWS - Punk rock icon, actor, author, TV host and self-described "graying foreign correspondent" Henry Rollins (Black Flag, Rollins Band) returns to the airwaves at the station where he got his start in radio, hosting a KCRW (Santa Monica, CA public radio) music show that will feature "a great mix of all kinds from all over from all time." It will air live, on air at 89.9 FM and online at KCRW.com beginning this Saturday night (March 7) from 6 to 8pm. The shows will also be available on demand until the next show airs.
Henry has warned listeners to bring their track shoes, promising his Saturday show will careen vigorously through time and genres. While his background as a musician is in punk rock, his playlist will reflect his voracious interest in "absorbing music from all over." "I am very happy to be a new member of the KCRW family," says Rollins. "Some of the first radio work I ever did was many years ago at KCRW under the guidance of Deirdre O'Donoghue, so it's a great turn of events to be back over 20 years later with a show of my own. To say that I am excited is an understatement."
Rollins previously hosted a radio show on LA commercial station Indie 103 and brings a wealth of music he has collected while traveling the world, as a musician, producer and stage performer.
