89.1 KHOL began broadcast on April 4, 2008. In just five months we are on air live 10-12 hours a day! Check out the programming schedule to find your new favorite time of day with KHOL DJS- blues, blue grass, funk, soul, Latin jazz, world music, heavy metal, and plenty of alternative sound. Our volunteer music aficionados - DJs and dedicated volunteers - are now giving up 100 hours a week to make this possible!
! Public Affairs too. Slice of life with Cat Caldwell’s “Car Mic”; cooking with Jason Mitchell’s “Grand Table”; and local musicians in-studio with James Booth’s “Live in the Hole”.
! Fundraising gone hip, hop, rock and funk. Thanks to Thai Me Up and owner, Jeremy Tofte, for hosting our first fundraising bash on June 20. And thanks to all of you who drank yourselves silly in support of KHOL. The DJs were on and people were grooving in the name of community radio.
