Paul Bradshaw is founder of Straight No Chaser, with a record collection that matches the depth and variety of his iconic magazine.
Since 1988 Straight No Chaser has pursued the Freedom Principle and explored the concept of Interplanetary Sounds - Ancient to Future. Essentially, the root of the mission is to engage and educate. The music of the African diaspora is at the root of all contemporary western popular music and in these turbulent times a deeper knowledge and understanding is vital to the evolution of the culture and our way of living. Despite the global pandemic, despite the deaths, artists continue to create, the music keeps coming. It speaks to us. Tune in.
