RadioFlavia.Org

Born in Los Angeles in 1929, Flavia Register (of Texas and Tennessee families) was a young tap dancer before her career as an artist and writer blossomed.

Flavia met Jack Weedn after the war and were married in the spring of 1954. Jack Weedn was an LA native born in 1925. After Jack's service on Submarines for the USN in the Pacific, he returned to Los Angeles and while a student at USC he often was a singer at places like "Little Joe's" on North Broadway (around the corner from my favorite hang out in LA, Philippe's). I am Rick Weedn, son of Flavia and Jack Weedn, brother to Lisa Weedn and I spent a few special days at both of these landmarks with my dad when I was a little boy. Later I joined him as a proud adult son of this blue eyed, silver haired charmer. RadioFlavia is based in Lugano, Switzerland and dedicated to my parents and grandparents.

RadioFlavia.Org is a part of a non profit Swiss association based on the lake of Lugano adjacent to Villa Castagnola called The Artist Guild.  We broadcast on the web and operate our music and artistic activities from our Swiss base at Via Giulio Vicari 10 in Lugano.

We are fully supported by purchases of Flavia products at the Flavia.Gallery site. 

When I am not in Spain or Wyoming I am here in Lugano at the studio volunteering little cultural mixes of stories and music for fellow travellers and dreamers like me. We are fully licensed by SUISA to broadcast/stream our non profit music and stories from our lakeside studios. 

RadioFlavia is dedicated to music and imagery from the 1930’s through the 1970’s. These were from places and times that both my mom and dad introduced me to as a kid. Over my lifetime I have built up my own archive from these memories.

I hope fellow travelers and dreamers of any age join in and listen to us at RadioFlavia.com or come visit us and lets share a coffee - Rick Weedn
