Radio Free Charleston comes your way with an intellectually-curated collection of local and independent music this week on The AIR as we premiere three full hours of new RFC! 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 elsewhere on this page.
Rather than once again revive some of our pre-2020 programming this week, we decided to just build a new three-hour show that you can hear at 10 AM and 10 PM Tuesday. We have lots of new music, lots of local and independent stuff and some mystery bonus tracks at the end that have to be heard to be believed.
We open our show with a song from the new album by Aristotle Jones, Mountain Doo Wop and The Streets of Osage, and over the course of the next three hours, we bring you brand-new music from The Paranoid Style, Skyflake, The Struts, Test Subject 17, TAFKAVince, Buni Muni, Old Crow Medicine Show with Sierra Ferrell, Pere Ubu, Cherry Poppin’ Daddies, Cindy Wilson, Matt Mullins & The Bringdowns, William Matheny and Jerks.
That’s mixed in with classic tracks from local, independent and international artists, with everything mixed together in lovely free-format clumps of musical excellence.
And a quick correction to what I announce in the show: A Problematic Opera, the new album by TAFKAVince is out now, and you can get it from Bandcamp. For some reason I thought it was due to be released shortly.
Check out the playlist below to see all the goodies we have in store (links will take you to the artist’s pages where possible)…
