Catch the Lone Bellow at the Four Corners Folk Festival, Sunday, September 1 at 5 PM. 

The Lone Bellow's self-titled album debut has been called one of the best albums of the year by People Magazine and the band garnered raves from everyone from USA Today, The New York Times, The Associated Press, Paste, Forbes and Filter. NPR's Bob Boilen simply stated, "The world of acoustic music is about to get a new household name. The music of The Lone Bellow is born from tragedy and told with heart and simplicity."

KSUT's 88.1 FM signal serving Northwest New Mexico experienced the failure of one it's key components last weekend.  Engineers visited the site on Friday (August, 23) and were able to diagnose the problem and we are working on getting replacements equipment to the site.  We apologize for the loss of service and will get the signal back as soon as possible. 

Congratulations to Karen & James Fischer, who won the VIP passes and camping to next weekend's Telluride Blues & Brews Festival. The Fischers are regular attendees at this event, but have never had the VIP experience. They were so excited that they drove out to the station within a couple of hours of winning to get those hot little tickets into their hands.
