Jeremy Baldwin is an Illinois native who has lived in Ypsilanti for 27 years. Before joining WEMU he hosted The Crossroads Music Program for WSDS in Salem, MI. Early exposure to legendary Chicago music stations WLS, WXRT and WBEZ sparked his interest in radio at a young age. The late Stuart Rosenberg of WBEZ's 'The Earth Club' and 'Radio Gumbo' radio fame said " “I love everything, all music, and that’s why I do what I do. My great passion has always been to share the things I love.” This is the creed that Jeremy attempts to live up to as a radio host.
