Erin Fuller
HostHowdy! I'm Erin Fuller, one of your weekday hosts here at Studio One.
I'm here to bring you great music and audio features throughout your day, on the radio or wherever you listen.
I love that I'm part of a radio community that showcases all sides of music. Sharing music that you may otherwise never hear is inspiring, and I'm honored and fortunate to be able to do that — thanks!
If you see me out and about in the community, give me a friendly wave and say hello!
My favorite Iowa music destinations:
- Trumpet Blossom Café in Iowa City
- Codfish Hollow in Maquoketa
- The Vault Recording Studios in West Liberty
My entries in the "best songs of all time" list:
- "The Lightning Strike" by Snow Patrol — It's a 16 minute / three movement song. My dad first played this song when there was a lightning delay during a soccer tournament when I was a kid. We sat in his car atop a hill, watching the storm and listening to this song. Now I listen to it whenever there's a thunderstorm.
- "Contact" by Daft Punk — This is another Dad introduction. He played this as a hype song a few times before I played soccer games. The build-up of the music, the noise, the volume ... it's so intense and always draws me in.
- "bigfeelings" by WILLOW — Her craftsmanship on this album is immaculate. This song is so modernly jazzy and showcases her voice excellently.
My top three favorite albums (as of today):
- Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not by Arctic Monkeys
- A Hundred Million Suns by Snow Patrol
- Random Access Memories by Daft Punk

Punks and queers have always occupied each other’s spaces. It’s practically an essential part of punk culture to include and uplift the LGBTQ community (and vice versa), as the two are so tightly wound together. Here in Iowa, one Iowa City-based queer punk band thrives. -
The third year of the Gays and Faes festival in Decorah was a resounding success, filled with almost more whimsy than we could handle. -
