About "Live from Here" with Chris Thile
The only live music and variety radio show aired nationwide today, "Live from Here" with Chris Thile (formerly, A Prairie Home Companion), is a staple for the 2.6 million fans who tune in each Saturday evening. On Oct. 7, 2017 Chris Thile began his second — and first full season — of hosting the show, having been handed over the hosting reins in the fall of 2016. Under Chris’ direction, the Saturday evening staple draws new, diverse talent to public radio with a unique blend of musical performances and comedy each week, including a salute to musicians’ birthdays, the online Instant Song Request, along with Chris’ signature feature, a brand-new Song Of The Week, written and composed by Thile for each live broadcast.

For Thile, who first appeared on the program when he was 15 years old and has been a regular guest ever since, it’s been the opportunity of a lifetime. “I was raised with (and to a certain extent, on) the show and I love it with all my heart,” Being able to explore what can be done with it on a weekly basis is as thrilling a prospect as I can possibly imagine.”

KUT 90.5 extends special thanks to our sponsors: By George, men’s and women’s clothing; Hangers, clothes hangers and closet accessories; and Shop Nuo, designer laptop and tablet cases.
