You’re listening to WRIU, Kingston, 90.3 FM. It’s 7 o’clock and our show is called The French Connection.  I am your host, Mike Stevenson.

We broadcast from the University of Rhode Island’s Memorial Union every Sunday at 7 pm EST, following Wayne Cresser’s Picture This – Film Music on the Radio. “

Each week on The French Connection, we will explore the wonderful varieties of French music, from the early 1920s to present day: Chanson, Jazz, Folk, Jazz Manouche and Rock n Roll.
