Well known celebrated musician and pioneer of Noosa Community Radio, Barry Charles, was a welcome visitor on Wayne Carlson’s Boppin’ the Blues on Noosa 101.3fm radio.
Barry is a founding member of the radio station and one of those behind its inception way back in 1995.
The blues emerged from a black cultural melting pot in the American South of the 1890s, drawing on a rich mix of African-American spirituals, traditional songs, European hymns, folk ballads, work songs and hollers, and contemporary dance music.
Wayne’s blues session is on Tuesdays at noon – only on Noosa 101.3fm. So if you love a bit of slide guitar and harmonica, tune in and let Wayne Carlson take you on the blues train.
