91.9 WFPK launches Season 2 of The Speed Of Sound interview series with on-air host and music director Kyle Meredith on October 3, 2016. The series includes music selections and commentary by artists in seven minute interview segments.
"Some of this season's conversations are so personal, like talking divorce with Dan Auerbach and checking in with Sharon Jones about her fight against cancer. Father John Misty details his infamous Ryan Adams / Taylor Swift story, while Daniel Ash of Love & Rockets proclaims his love for Britney Spears. Above all, every episode celebrates music in all of its spectacular forms," said Meredith.
