Oladokun

Singer/songwriter JOY OLADOKUN has launched “Light On Radio,” a new, bi-weekly radio show airing on APPLE MUSIC COUNTRY. The series, which debuts TODAY (5/26), will celebrate music’s power to bring people together, and shine a light on her favorite artists, songwriters and storytellers.  

“This is a radio show about life, love, mental health and good tunes," said OLADOKUN in the first episode. "I’m really excited to share songs that I love and songs that I’ve forgotten about, and also to talk about things that really matter to me. I think that music is this great medium that we have to say things that really mean a lot in ways that aren’t as offensive to the palate, so let’s have some hard but good discussions."

On the inaugural episode, OLADOKUN touches on mental health, current events, the importance of self-care and being influenced by the likes of KENDRICK LAMAR, MARREN MORRIS and ARETHA FRANKLIN.

OLADOKUN added, “I really do believe with my whole heart that music is one of the means that we have to help each other and heal each other, and it’s this really spiritual cosmic force that can be used for great good if you’re paying attention. I’m gonna play songs that I love and play songs that have helped me through hard times, or play songs that have asked hard questions of me or the people who wrote them.”

OLADOKUN joins TIM McGRAW, FANCY HAGOOD, RISSI PALMER, DAVE COBB, MORGAN EVANS, DIERKS BENTLEY and MARREN MORRIS, all of whom have helmed original radio shows on APPLE MUSIC COUNTRY.
