LIVESET

Hosted by Larry Monroe

About the Show

LiveSet was some of the best darn anywhere on the planet. Hosted by Larry Monroe, LiveSet presented local and national musicians for an hour of live performance and relaxed conversation from KUT’s legendary Studio 1A.

About Our Host

Larry Monroe
In Austin since: Summer, 1977

Favorite thing(s) about Austin:
I can drive my Alfa Romeo Spider with the top down over 300 days a year. Stacy Park. And, of course, the music.

If I had more time, I would...:
Write three books: Biography of Townes Van Zandt, my own autobiography and a time travel mystery novel called "The Bottomless Cup."

Work/on-air history:
For more than two decades, Larry Monroe has been a prolific, artistic contributor to KUT-FM. His work has helped shape the station's musical soul. Using his programs as the vehicles, Monroe has been transported listeners across aural landscapes -- and everyone enjoys the ride.

Top 5 favorite or influential records:
This category asks for 5 musicians or albums. I'm gonna list six musicians: Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, Commander Cody, Butch Hancock, Townes Van Zandt & Willie Nelson. Explanations to follow sometime soon...
