Discover FREAKS ONLY
Hand picked music, listen worldwide
KCRW’s weeknight show FREAKS ONLY hosted by music expert and DJ Travis Holcombe, is a sonic exploration of the global underground with fresh tunes, exclusive guest mixes from world-renowned DJs, live sessions, interviews, and world premieres. Served fresh every Monday through Friday, FREAKS ONLY abides by the ethos of KCRW Music: Play what you love. Travis Holcombe takes this to heart and skillfully obliterates the barriers between indie rock, psychedelic disco, decade-defying post-punk, and the latest house and techno sounds reverberating from undergrounds around the world. KCRW’s FREAKS ONLY is your LA-based, one-stop shop for beating the algorithm and finding your next wavelength.

Keep Travis Holcombe employed. I trust that man with my ears. If he spun around the clock, I wouldn't have a Spotify account. Or job, or family. - Ian
