Tuesday Featured Artist: Bob Dylan

Listen for a song from our Tuesday Featured Artist every hour from 6 a.m. to  6 p.m. 

Bob Dylan's influence on popular music is incalculable. As a songwriter, he pioneered several different schools of pop songwriting, from confessional singer/songwriter to winding, hallucinatory, stream-of-consciousness narratives. As a vocalist, he broke down the notion that a singer must have a conventionally good voice in order to perform, thereby redefining the vocalist's role in popular music. As a musician, he sparked several genres of pop music, including electrified folk-rock and country-rock. And that just touches on the tip of his achievements. Having just won the Nobel Prize in Literature 2016, the legendary Bob Dylanreturns to Louisville Tuesday Nov. 1, for a sold out performance at The Kentucky Center's Whitney Hall, and we could not be more excited! Bob Dylan is our Tuesday Featured Artist.
