Singer/songwriter Brittany Jean performs during an interview in an SPR studio.

The singer/songwriter Brittany Jean will play Saturday (5:30 p.m.) at Zola in downtown Spokane. Her live shows are solo acts, though when she records her albums in Nashville — she’s done six — she plays with an ensemble. The latest was released last fall.

Brittany is a big Gordon Lightfoot fan, which immediately caught my attention, since I am a fan of his as well. She came to the Spokane Public Radio studio to talk about her music and her career.

Doug Nadvornick has spent most of his 30+-year radio career at Spokane Public Radio and filled a variety of positions. He is currently the program director and news director.

He served as the Inland Northwest correspondent for the Northwest News Network, based in Coeur d’Alene. He created the original program grid for KSFC. He has also served for several years as a board member for Public Media Journalists Association. During his years away from SPR, he worked at The Pacific Northwest Inlander, Washington State University in Spokane and KXLY Radio.
