Shout! Black Gospel Music Moments

KWBU

Author and Baylor University professor Robert Darden tells stories and plays recordings from the Baylor University Libraries' Black Gospel Music Restoration Project in a series of two-minute segments.

Shout! Black Gospel Music Moments explores the distinctly African-American sound of the "Golden Age of Gospel" (1945-1975). The series celebrates this fertile musical period in American history, presenting cultural snapshots that reveal the depth of a people, their community, and the influence they have had on the rest of American music.

Throughout February, listen to Shout! on both of our stations. We have the segment each weekday at 12:55 p.m. on Classical 90.5FM and at 12:33 p.m. on KBIA 91.3FM.

Trevor serves as KBIA’s weekday morning host for classical music. He has been involved with local radio since 1990, when he began volunteering as a music and news programmer at KOPN, Columbia's community radio station. Before joining KBIA, Trevor studied social work at Mizzou and earned a masters degree in geography at the University of Alabama. He has worked in community development and in urban and bicycle/pedestrian planning, and recently served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Zambia with his wife, Lisa Groshong. An avid bicycle commuter and jazz fan, Trevor has cycled as far as Colorado and pawed through record bins in three continents.
