WFMU, Last of the Independents

Once upon a time, I was on a road trip to NYC and heard it. WFMU is a real gem, whether you are crusing through Alphabet City or going the wrong way on the George Washington Bridge.
The following is from my friend and collaborator,

Maddie Fix-Hansen.

Dear People;

This Saturday, bright & early in the morning from 9 AM - 10 AM, I have a WFMU Listener Hour broadcasting into the spring-like Saturday morning sunshine.

Catch some tunes you've never heard before by some great New York, Chicago & San Francisco musicians interspersed with some lesser heard favorites and recording treats.

WFMU is on your dial at 91.1 FM.

If you haven't tuned into WFMU before, that may be because you can't receive their signal, say you are in another city or in Brooklyn, per se. For people like us, there's www.wfmu.org wherein you can listen to a live stream or to an archive ... search for my show by "maddy fix" (slight name misspelling). The WFMU website is chock full of digitally archived music & sounds. Search for your favorite band - you'll probably find it carefully curated in a WFMU DJs archived program.

WFMU is one of the last remaining freeform, non commercial, self-supporting radio stations in America, right here in the New York metropolitan area.

hanks for listenin' & vive the born free airwaves!
