Shady Grove Rdio
An Eclectic Mix Of Folk, Roots, Blues, Americana, Rock ... More Than Music--A Feeling!
Now In Broadband!

 

Hi Folks, I'm Kenny Laing, your Shady Grove Radio host. Broadcasting from Rochester, New York, U.S.A., I'm a fan of songs from all genres of music; if a song moves me in some way, regardless of the genre, I like it! One of the goals of Shady Grove Radio is to put together songs from many genres, in such a way as to weave a listenable mix that just about anyone would find enjoyable. This station's emphasis is an eclectic mix of Folk, Old-Time, Country, Blues, and Rock. Bringing into this mix, I will play anything that may fit the station's playlist or the developing mood of a live-broadcast show.
