Now and Then - Live Music with Richard Traviss and Julian Giaimo

Original air date April 5, 2025 | Time 59:00

The Spring Fund Drive at Radio Catskill is underway and we offer up a day of live music in the studio.

Richard Traviss is a prolific songwriter with a infectious attitude when he performs. Sarcastic and affectionate all at once, he can run circles around you until you have to give it up! Enjoy his humor and the emotional rollercoaster of his music.

Julian Giaimo is multi-talented and focused on his career as a producer and songwriter. He holds a Masters degree from the Berklee School of Music (big time) in Music Production and is currently pursuing his second degree from Berklee in songwriting. He's deliberately vulnerable, charismatic and his songs are well crafted. He can deliver a performance on guitar, bass or drums and centers his life around his music.
