WBOI's Side Tracks Host Enjoys Derailing Listeners With Freeform Mix Of Eclectic Music

Andy LaVerghetta
Bruce Grimm's insatiable love of music and musicians was driven and fed by frequent visits to Ruby's Red Hot Records, Karma Records, and other local stores when he was a kid.

WBOI's volunteer host, Bruce Grimm, developed a love for music, and local record stores at an early age, and that's what drives his present musical passion every Saturday night.

That's when he and his co-hosts, Brad Etter and George Seymour invite listeners to climb aboard, for a two hour, freeform, eclectic musical mix called "Side Tracks."

As WBOI's Julia Meek continues to take her monthly looks "Behind he Mic," she managed to derail Grimm into the studio, to discuss the scope of his musical interests, and the audio routes they cover.

Side Tracks can be heard every Saturday night at 9:00 on WBOI. You can connect with the show, and it's hosts, at its Facebook page.

A Fort Wayne native, Julia is a radio host, graphic artist, and community volunteer, who has contributed to NIPR both on- and off-air for forty years. Besides being WBOI's arts & culture reporter, she currently co-produces and hosts Folktales and Meet the Music.
