Tune
in to WXPN 88.5 each Monday evening at 8pm to
hear
Jamnation hosted by Matt Reilly.
Jamnation is XPN's program dedicated to the broad
variety of musical output often grouped under the "Jam
Band" umbrella. Classics of the genre like
the Allman Brothers and The Grateful Dead are
given their due and the spotlight is also shone
upon the new generation of groups such as Galactic,
Medeski, Martin and Wood, Widespread Panic,
moe, and many more.
Jamnation explores the ever-expanding galaxy
of jam bands. Many Jam Bands new and old have
made up an important part of XPN's daily programming,
and based on our listener feedback, you want more!
Jamnation was born from a dialogue between
station and audience, and perhaps it is no coincidence
that the music we feature on Jamnation
is rooted in an important dialogue between artist
and audience. Jamnation is sure to become
an important part of your XPN listening experience.
As always, please let
us know what you'd like to hear on Jamnation.

Reilly relocated to Philly from KGSR.
