A power couple if there ever was one…I've known Tracy through DJing and doing time at WRIR…and being that Deep Groove is a heartbeat away, I get the pleasure of her company on a regular basis. It's an absolute joy to give her my pennies for records and what I look forward to when I can swing it…and she never once mocks my choices…She is hands down one of the most fantabulous people I know. And Kenny's pretty bitchin' too…

Get Baked and Make a Difference

Believe it…Bakery Records, home of Todd Parker & The Witches, Tadpoles, Wigdoor and most recently the long-awaited co-conduit for Tony Mentzer‘s vast catalog, is stepping up to the plate for WRIR, home of Sunrise Ocean Bender, during our fund drive. If you don’t know, the show took its name, and in many ways part of its spirit, from said Tadpoles song. A song, and band, that has had big impact on what goes on around here. And now, Bakery Records is making its own impact on WRIR and asking you to do the same.

Make a difference for independent radio, for independent media, for independent voices…not just in our outpost here in Richmond, but across the globe…and if Bakery Records and I have anything to say about it, across the universe.

All of them.

Here is your flight plan:

During WRIR’s ’13 Spring Fund Drive, if you donate $50 or more you not only get the sweet new WRIR t-shirt, but you’ll get 7 CD’s from one of America’s finest,

All you have to do is donate $50 or more online at WRIR, say you dig Sunrise Ocean Bender (so we know who you are…don’t forget) and we’ll ensure the baked goods get to you. With an overwhelming whiff of gratitude and the knowledge that you waved your freak flag high–very high–for a worthy cause.

WRIR Fund Drive: The Time Is Now

outside_boombox_tshirts

I’m lucky enough to have a show that’s not only heard around this globe (and others), but puts me in touch with some of the most creative people I’ve ever known. I can do this partly because I have some time on my dirty hands to throw into the pot that’s called WRIR lp 97.3 FM. Now, for better or worse, time is money on this rock. If you find yourself with no time on your hands, that little bit o’green you might have can go a long way in securing some time for WRIR: time to play artists that deserve to heard, time to provide you with a staggering range of shows, time to add your voice to independent media everywhere, and time to keep doing so.

WRIR’s fund drive is in flight, and the time isn’t nigh…the time is now.

Please support WRIR. It’s support not only for WRIR—YOUR station—but support for the legions that value a different and autonomous voice in the deafening static.

I thank you for your patronage.

Please support WRIR
