Radio Free Charleston and The Swing Shift are new today on The AIR. You can tune in at The AIR website, or just listen on this little embedded radio doohickey…

At 10 AM and 10 PM our latest Radio Free Charleston presents new music from Mark Beckner, Creek Don’t Rise, Poor Man’s Gravy, Emmelea Deal and more, plus we play two classic tracks from Feast of Stephen in honor of Jerry Fugate, who ran camera and conducted interviews in our video show devoted to their reunion.

At the very end of this show we have a little Easter egg of Jerry with John Radcliff performing the RFC theme.
