Once again it’s Tuesday on The AIR  and that means it’s time for a new  Radio Free Charleston! 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.

We have three full hours of new stuff on Radio Free Charleston this week, with loads of new music, tons of old music–some of it local, some not. Much of the show is a deep dive into the RFC Archives, but the new stuff is bright and shiny, so it should keep your attention for the full three hours.

Our new local tracks this week come from Golden, Payback’s A Bitch, Massing and more. New Indie music is courtesy of Novelty Island, Dave Strong, Andy Prieboy, Nervous Twitch, The Anchoress, Ian Hunter and more.

On top of that, we have quite a few gems from the past forty years of The RFC Archives.

Check out the playlist below to see all the goodies we have in store. Live links (where available) will take you to the artist’s pages so you can find out more about them, buy their music and find out where to see them perform live…

Now you can also hear a different 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 last week’s episodes of  MIRRORBALL at 1 PM and Curtain Call at 2 PM.  At 3 PM we’re going to bring you the first two parts of the History of Swing, which ran from episode 99 to episode 103 on The Swing Shift. We’ll bring you the final two parts next week, then the plan is to return with new episodes after that.

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.
