Radio Memphis | Blues in the Basement

Ric Chetter started broadcasting over the internet from his living room in 2011. (Happy 10th Anniversary!) Radio Memphis, featuring music from independent artists in the Memphis area, now broadcasts from a former recording studio in the basement of an office building on Poplar Avenue. The Sunday night Booze & Blues show features live in-studio interviews and performances.

Ric Chetter - at the helm of the pirate ship that is Radio Memphis.

Here's a few of the musical guests who played in the basement during 2017:

Tony Manard - just another fool from Memphis, y'all.

Straight outta Marshall County, it's Cameron Kimbrough - the grandson of Junior Kimbrough.

Mario Monterosso and Cam Kimbrough

Robert Kimbrough, Sr., carries on the cotton patch soul blues of his father, Junior Kimbrough, along with brothers Kinny Kimbrough (background top photo) and David Kimbrough, Jr. (1965 - 2019, foreground bottom photo).
