David Fleming speaks with Chris Thayer about several releases, all of which overlap in style, songs, or feel. This is the first of two shows talking about Monochrome, One Foot in the Grave, Loud & Clear and more! Blues based rock... rockin' blues... something a bit gritty and greazy for your musical palette!

David Fleming speaks with Benjiphonik about his newest single, "15 Minutes Ahead of Insanity," as well as the video release FOR it. The release was another in the series of videos being launched in tandem with KVC-Arts. The song and video speak of being at the point of boiling over, but with a look at lessons we could have and should have learned from. Lessons we perhaps still CAN learn.

This edition of KVC-Arts is STEEPED in guitar. David Fleming speaks with Peter Curtis about the 2026 RCC Guitar Festival and Competition, which kicks off Friday April 3rd with a concert by The LA Guitar Quartet. Saturday the 4th from 9 to 5-ish pm, there will be guitarists playing in a variety of genres competing for scholarships, as well as master classes and concerts by jazz guitarist Larry Koonse, and classical guitarist and composer Benjamin Verdery - the latter of which will perform on his own, and then will be joined by Peter and the RCC Guitar Ensemble to play a piece Verdery wrote for the ensemble and the 2026 festival.

David Fleming speaks with Marina Jurica-Preston about The Secret Garden, as well as her role as Lily. Many in this region know Marina as the meteorologist with CBS-LA. Now you have a chance to experience her as an actress, as she grew up with, and received her formal education in both music and science, currently pursuing her PhD in paleoclimatology. The Secret Garden opens March 28th at Inland Valley Repertory Theatre, taking on the most successful musical version- the 1991 musical which ran on Broadway.

For forty-plus years, beyond being the soloist and/or pianist with many of the most renowned symphonies in the U.S. and beyond, Jeffrey Siegel has been performing/presenting "Keyboard Conversations." This is a concert setting, though before each piece he explains not only a bit of the history behind it and things to look forward to within the piece, but also some interesting facts one might not know, unless you happen to have REALLY studied the piece or composer. And then there's a Q&A after the concert to cover anything else.


David Fleming speaks with Siegel about this series - including the next one, "Music of Joy and Peace coming up soon at McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert. And a bit of a sidetrack to Gershwin.
