Hey all,


Happy Saturday! Hope your Labor Day weekend has gotten off to a good start.


We've got some cool things coming up on WXYC to complement your weekend. Check it out:


You can catch Orange County Special, our specialty show devoted to folk, traditional, and neo-traditional music, this Sunday from 11 to 1pm to hear some great Klezmer Punk! DJ Corn Subsidies will take you on a tour through this niche New York scene, which manages to be traditional, progressive, and super funky at the same time.


Right after that, tune in on Sunday from 1 to 2pm for an episode of Hell or High Water that’s especially close to home! Join Grace B. for a Blue Ridge Mountain experience as she takes you through WPAQ's The Voice of the Blue Ridge Mountains: Radio Recordings from Mount Airy, NC 1947-50. WPAQ of Mount Airy, NC is a radio station in the classic southern tradition. Since signing on in 1948, it has featured live local and touring professional artists performing old time, bluegrass, and traditional gospel music. With uncommon consistency, the station has reflected the musical values of its community for more than fifty years. Fortunately, many early performances were recorded. This CD showcases a selection of musical treasures from the first years of WPAQ.


And Sunday from 9 to 10pm will be the first regularly-scheduled installment of On-Air Confessions with DJ Lon, a new specialty show featuring confessions of all kinds, serious and humorous, from WXYC DJs and listeners alike. The show will alternate with Sports Rap and will air on the first Sunday of every month. You won’t want to miss this!
