American Routes
Sundays at 7:00pm

American Routes is a two-hour journey through the sounds and stories of American music — from jazz, blues, and gospel to Cajun, country, soul, and beyond. Produced in New Orleans and hosted by Nick Spitzer, the show explores the roots of our musical traditions and the many routes they’ve taken across time and place. With unforgettable performances, artist interviews, and vivid field recordings, American Routes celebrates the people and cultures that shape our collective soundtrack.
