Bill Foster returns to WAMU

We just got word from the folks at WAMU/BluegrassCountry.org that one of their wayward show hosts has returned to the roost. Bill Foster, who was a host on the popular Bluegrass Overnight show broadcast in the DC area from 1985 to 1998, is back on staff.

He will once again be a host on Bluegrass Overnight, with his return debut scheduled for this Sunday, October 22. He’ll be on live on WAMU.org from midnight to 6:00 a.m., and the show will be rebroadcast on BluegrassCountry.org throughout the following week.

Bill is a great friend to bluegrass music and an active contributor on many levels.

We join Bill’s coworkers at BluegrassCountry.org in welcoming him back to Virginia (after an eight year ex-pat existence in Florida), and to broadcasting bluegrass at WAMU.
