About WBKM
WBKM, Burlington's Kinda Music, is an almost 20-year-old creation that began with the simplest of things: a conversation between two music lovers about crafting something to “connect people to music”. We wanted to celebrate the music that we were passionate about and invite contributors to do the same.
A key element of WBKM is also to celebrate the music of our region, one not as well known as some of the other regions of the country for great, passionate music, but nonetheless worthy of discovery.
We hope you will find our selections never boring or repetitive, as we custom-create music 24/7 for our listeners from our database of over 100,000 songs. And we actually know them all!
