QuietMusic - Turn Up The Quiet!
Description
Hi there. I’m Nick Francis, producer and host of "Quietmusic." I live in the Northern suburbs of Atlanta with my wife Sharon. Our son Miles goes to the University Of Georgia.
I am currently the Music Director of KPLU-FM Tacoma, WA. I also programmed Atlanta's Smooth Jazz station, WJJZ-FM. I moved to Atlanta over two years ago from Phoenix, where I programmed KYOT-FM ("The Coyote") from February of 1994 to September of 2000; I’m proud to say that KYOT is one of the most successful of its kind in America.
Once upon a time, over 20 years ago, I started DJ-ing at a very cool eclectic music station in Santa Fe, NM. (KLSK). Because I was just starting out, my first air shifts were at night, usually from 8pm-2am, with one interminably long overnight shift starting at 11 on Saturday night and going to 8am on Sunday. The station’s music mix was primarily instrumental, and covered a wide palette of styles—jazz (both contemporary & traditional), classical, folk, light rock, mellow R&B, and a type of music later referred to as “new age”. With an amazing library of music at my disposal, I got to mix all kinds of music, and was often thrilled to find many combinations of seemingly different styles blend together seamlessly.
