Sugar's Favorites

In my wonderful life as Music Director at KVNF Public Radio, a virtual rainbow of music crosses my desk each and every week; Rock, Americana, Jazz, Hip Hop, Reggae, Electronica, World, Childrens and much more. It is a privilege and an honor to offer this variety of talent and sound to our remarkable Volunteer DJs who share it with our listeners in Western Colorado. It is with true thanks and a grateful heart that I have chosen a few of my favorites of the past 365 days…
