There are three new hours of Radio Free Charleston that you can hear today on The AIR.  To listen to The AIR, you simply have to point your cursor over and tune in at the website, or you could just stay here, and  listen to the cool embedded player found elsewhere on this page.  

You can hear Radio Free Charleston Tuesdays at 10 AM and 10 PM, with boatloads of replays throughout the week.

It’s a free-format extravaganza with a gimmick we haven’t used for a while this week.  We’re doing double-shots, playing two songs in a row from every artist this week. We have our usual mix of local, independent and cult-favorite artists, only this time the fun is doubled.

We open the show with a brand-new tune from Sasha Colette & The Magnolias, then follow that with a song from deep in the RFC Archives.

In the course of our show you’ll hear new music from Byzantine, The Settlement, Styx, M (Robin Scott) and more.  Plus we dig into the archives for great stuff from Peter Gabriel, Hello June, Saycouth June Swoon and more.

It’s a great show, and it’ll have you hearing double.

Links will take you to pages for the artists…

Now you can also hear a different classic episode of RFC every weekday at 5 PM, and we bring you a marathon all night long Saturday night/Sunday morning.

I’m also going to  embed a low-fi, mono version of this show right in this post, right here so you can listen on demand.

 

After RFC, stick around for encores of the most recent episodes of  MIRRORBALL at 1 PM and Curtain Call at 2 PM.

At 3 PM we give you an encore of two classic episodes of The Swing Shift. I know I’ve been neglecting my Swing Music showcase lately, but I play to rectify that situation with a stretch of new episodes coming every week beginning in August.

 You can hear The Swing Shift Tuesday at 3 PM, with replays Wednesday at 8 AM, Friday at 10 AM and 8 PM and Saturday afternoon, only on The AIR . You can also hear all-night marathons, seven hours each, starting at Midnight Thursday and Sunday evenings.
