Debbie Kruger and Trevor Jackson wax lyrical about music
every Tuesday from 11.05am (AET).
|
It's the segment with no name, and it's got listeners captivated. Every week we spin a few tracks and talk in-depth about the some of the best music that's out there.
|
| The Background |
| When I moved back to Byron Bay in late 2006, I hoped to rejoin the team at BAY FM, but it wasn't to be. In my six-year absence things had changed at the beloved community radio station, and so I found myself turning the tuner on my car radio to listen for what else was out there. The ABC North Coast station was okay for local information, but for the coolest mix of music I had heard anywhere in a long, long time, the best place to be was 91.7 FM ABC Coast FM. |
| ABC Coast FM services the Tweed Coast in NSW and Queensland, just up the road from Byron Bay, and also the Gold and Sunshine Coasts in Queensland. So it has a huge listener spread. I was instantly taken by the smooth delivery of announcer Trevor Jackson. Trevor had interviewed me for my book, Songwriters Speak, for ABC Coast FM in 2006, and also a year earlier when he was a presenter at ABC Hobart. One day in early 2007 Trevor and I got together for a chat and from there "The Segment With No Name" was born.

| The segment and how to listen |
| Since February 2007 I've joined Trevor on air each Tuesday just after 11am, to discuss music – old songs, new releases, hidden gems, whatever takes our fancy. |
