Fund Raiser to help keep the Show on WKPX
For the Past 20 year’s Dar Lopez has been
bringing South Florida the blues on her weekly radio program on WKPX. Dar has volunteered for the station for 2
decades, in an effort to promote Blues music to South Florida and beyond. June 2, 2013 at the Bamboo Room
in Lake Worth, located at 25 South J Street, Dar along with her husband Gerardo
( who has been part of the show for nearly 9 years) will engage local and
national musicians, blues fans and sponsors to celebrate this milestone with a
live show which will be recorded for airplay the following week on WKPX ,
88.5FM Sunday Blues with Dar 10am-1pm.
The Sunday Blues with Dar, is a volunteer effort on
the non profit radio station, WKPX, located at Piper High School and run by
BECON.
At 4pm the doors on the Bamboo Room open for all those
interested in not only seeing a great show, but also interested in preserving
this award winning program. The Sunday Blues has been honored as a fan favorite
for several year’s in New Times and City Link Magazines. Also it’s host Dar has
won the Film Recording and Entertainment
Council’ award for favorite radio personality and a South Florida Music award
as favorite DJ. The show has been
featured in national magazines and gains attention world wide with it’s
internet rebroadcast. Featured Musicians

The Regulators Rachelle Coba and Lowdown 13 are all part of this musical
