Music From the Edge of Technology

All Things Acoustic covers most of Alabama and all of the Internet with lots of kilowatts of acousticity — Friday nights, 8:00-10:00 p.m., Central Time. Your host from 1993 to 2026 was Jeremy Butler, but he's packed up his microphone and is off exploring new ventures — including his photography work and the JerCom Photo Substack newsletter.

All Things Acoustic continues, despite Jeremy's retirement, as Alabama Public Radio is presenting encores of recorded broadcasts.

Can't tune in on Friday? Our recorded shows are available for streaming any ol' time of the day or night.
