World Music from WKMS
Imported is WKMS’ premier international music program showcasing artists from all over the world. We combine an eclectic and genre-blending playlist with tracks by well-known and aspiring talent abroad. Hear Punjab, reggae, K-pop, indie, electronica and more from the mainstream to the culturally obscure.

Imported airs Sundays @ midnight on WKMS or listen to it On-Demand here.

Hi folks!  This week’s adventure begins with a little European punk.  Get ready to experience the gypsy punk phenomenon Gogol Bordello during our first set.

Next, we’ll head over to Norway for a little taste of Ida Maria, who will get you movin’ with her latest hit, I Eat Boys Like You for Breakfast.  And finally, we’ll end with the cool groove Junica by one of New Zealand’s finest, Over the Atlantic. And much more (LISTEN HERE).
