Eklektikos

Eklektikos is the name of John Aielli's radio show on KUT
in Austin, Texas. Most of the last year's shows are archived
and available for listening if you click the following link.
You not only hear some great music performed live in a
casual setting, but the artists also discuss their lives and
their creative processes.
