WCBU's On Deck has everything you need to know to start your day for Wednesday, February 3, 2021. Our top story is about how Illinois is failing to stem the tide of continual population loss that has beleaguered the state the last several years, according to recent U.S. Census data. WCBU's Tim Shelley examines the latest numbers. You'll also hear how even though Peoria may not seem to be fertile ground for producing a Flamenco band, you will hear from singer, songwriter, and co-founder of the band Tambora. Cindy Youngren, also of Hoosier Daddy and the bluesy Southside Cindy & the Slip-Tones said Tambora grew out of an improv session between recordings with Stinky Pete guitarist Tom Hopwood.
