On Friday at 8:30 pm and Saturday at 5:30 pm on Art Rocks!, (episode #626), meet biologist and artist Brandon Ballengée, who uses his background to research, explore, and inform his audience about the perils posed by the loss of flora and fauna.

[Brandon's work is on display at the Louisiana Art & Science Museum in an exhibition called Frameworks of Absence until October 27. ]

Then meet Susheel Bibbs, highly regarded as an international opera singer, who stars in her own one-woman musicals about African American heroines. Plus, hear how Oklahoma City musician Justin Echols balances life as a police officer and as an accomplished jazz master. All this and more on this week’s Art Rocks!
