Your soundtrack to discovering Detroit. Music, arts, food and what’s happening (that’s actually worth your time). 

Host Amanda LeClaire will guide you through a playlist of new and iconic music while introducing you to the people that are creating and influencing Detroit culture - from musicians and chefs to poets, filmmakers, visual artists and storytellers.

She'll also help you navigate what to do each week with a curated calendar of events and spotlights on the most interesting places to visit in our region. And because it’s live, you’ll have a chance to interact with the show each day.

Join us weekdays at noon and via Twitter and Instagram @DETCultureShift
