Rob Weisberg

Rob Weisberg is the host of WFMU's Transpacific Sound Paradise, the New York area's "peerless world music show" (in the words of Time Out New York). In a given hour Rob might be playing a chanteuse, a Chinese pipa player, a Balkan-style accordionist, a Jewish American trumpeter and a Brazilian pianist.

Global Rhythm and Roots magazines have published his writing on world music, and he was profiled by the Greek music magazine Difono. Rob's stories have also aired on Global Village, Pacific Time, and The Next Big Thing. He works as an engineer and producer for WNYC.
