"Spotlight in the City" debuts on Saturday, July 14 and can only be found on www.breakthruradio.com.

A new edition of "Spotlight on the City" will air on BTR every month. Future shows will focus on cities such as Tokyo, Oslo, Bogotá, and more.

"I want 'Spotlight on the City' to be an experience for my listeners," explains DJ Lottie. "I want them to travel all over the world and experience music from different countries and cultures.
