DJ Kevin McCullough presents R.E.M "Murmur"
Advertisement
Join us for a 2-hour, curated presentation of R.E.M.’s landmark 1983 debut, Murmur. Host DJ Kevin McCullough will guide us through the album, tracking down the band's early musical influences and spinning essential tracks from their 1982 debut EP, Chronic Town.
To fully appreciate the record that birthed modern alternative college rock, you need a guide who lived through its sonic evolution. Host Kevin McCullough brings decades of deep Kansas City radio history to The Listyning Room. His extensive broadcasting pedigree includes classic on-air stints at Q104 (back in its pre-Country days), 98.9 (before its transformation into "The Rock"), Mix 93.3, the legendary KY102, and 96.5 The Buzz. Kevin cut his teeth and gathered the foundation of his musical encyclopedia right down the road at KJHK, the renowned college station in Lawrence, KS.
Hearing Murmur on our reference-grade stereo system is a completely transformative experience. The trademark jangle of Peter Buck’s Rickenbacker, the driving lyricism of Mike Mills' basslines, and the cryptic, hauntingly beautiful mumblings of Michael Stipe are rendered with spectacular separation and analog warmth. Kevin will seamlessly weave the album's tracks alongside the raw garage-folk energy of Chronic Town and the artists who inspired their sound. Settle in, grab a drink from the bar, and enjoy an immersive, masterclass listening session dedicated to one of the greatest debut albums of all time.
