The Chinese People

Welcome to Local Resonance, I'm Kevin Murphy. Local Resonance is WYCE's new program dedicated to West Michigan's music scene. Local Resonance doesn't just play music from local artists - instead, we like to say that we tell the stories of people in our community through the music in their lives. That means that we'll take a look at music that's produced and created locally, but we'll also feature live music events from local, national and international acts, and we'll take a look at music of all kinds that the people of West Michigan are listening to. On this week's show, it's the Jammies wrap-up show. Today's entire show will be made up of music from the winners of this year's WYCE Jammies awards -- celebrating the best in local music. So, with no further delay, let's get to it... To start out, we'll hear from the winners of the Local Jazz Album of the Year award. This is the title track to "Shout Sister Shout" from Steppin' In It with Rachael Davis. Afterwards, we'll hear from a couple of Celtic acts who won this year's Worldbeat awards. This is Local Resonance on WYCE.
