Brian Lillie
Host
Why did you pick that name for your program?
“The essence of the Bluegrass sound comes from the skillful use of picks and bows (and sometimes fingers) on stringed instruments.”
What can listeners expect on “Pickin’ & Fiddlin'”?
“I enjoy airing the newest releases from major artists and the up-and-coming talent as well. Also featured are releases from the legendary artists who grew the genre. Sometimes I venture into “Bluegrass-adjacent” tunes, just for fun and perspective.”
What do you hope to accomplish with “Pickin’ & Fiddlin'”?
“It is my hope to introduce quality Bluegrass music to anyone who dares to listen!”
How long have you been in Community Radio?
” I have volunteered for community non-profit radio since 1992! Not all with WAPJ of course.”
Where you in radio before WAPJ?
“I started at a non-profit community radio in Bridgeport, CT doing music programming, reading local news and co-hosting a feature on spirituality. As I moved further from that station, I discovered WAPJ, and the rest is history!”
If listeners could learn one thing about you, what would that be?
“I LOVE doing this!”
Is there anything else you’d like to share with your listeners?
“Try it, you’ll like it!”
How can listeners contact you?
“You may phone me at WAPJ during my Wednesday program at (860) 489-9033 or you can email me directly at brianglillie@gmail.com.“
