Indiana's First All Queer Music Festival Coming To Fountain Square

The first all queer music festival in the state takes place in Fountain Square in early September.  Buzz Cut Indy is the creation of Carrie Keel,  who also started the popular Low Pone queer dance party .  WFYI’s  Jill Ditmire talks with Keel about how the success of the monthly dance event evolved into the Buzz Cut music festival.

Jill Ditmire was no stranger to the broadcast world. Her face and voice were a daily part of the lives of viewers and listeners in the Midwest for 25 years. She was the local news anchor during "All Things Considered" and a contributor to "Morning Edition," "Sound Medicine," "Art of the Matter “Curious Mix” and "Wednesday Live at 5:44." Jill's broadcast experience included anchoring and reporting news at television stations in Indianapolis, Detroit and Lafayette, including WTTV, WRTV, WLFI, WJBK, WTHR, WISH and the Ford Motor Company News Network. She produced her own television series on Indiana Public Television for eight years called “The Good Life” which showcased independent chefs, restaurants and local wineries.
