Local Focus

FORDHAM UNIVERSITY Triple A WFUV/NEW YORK has added the AMERICAN PUBLIC MEDIA-syndicated show "Live From Here," with host CHRIS THILE, to its SUNDAY EVENING lineup beginning SEPTEMBER 8th, from 6-8p.

THILE has hosted "Live From Here," which encompasses music, comedy and interviews, since he took over the former "A Prairie Home Companion" in 2016. That show was revamped as "Live From Here" in DECEMBER 2017. This year the show has relocated from the its longtime locale of ST. PAUL, MN to NEW YORK’s TOWN HALL 

"The show is a natural fit for our audience," says WFUV PD RITA HOUSTON. "Back in 2010, CHRIS and THE PUNCH BROTHERS performed at HOLIDAY CHEER for FUV, and we've had a long relationship with CHRIS and his musician friends and colleagues. Since 'Live From Here' has just relocated the show to NEW YORK, the timing has never been better for this wonderful show to be a part of WFUV's weekend programming."
