The days are getting longer. The sun is setting later. Despite the incredible lack of heat, the weather is looking up. Lucky for you, WRCT is warming up its spring schedule in an attempt to thaw out the air waves with some delicious new music. As flowers poke up through the ground, warm beats and smooth riffs will settle down in your eardrums. As the snow melts and the frost recedes, lush lyrics and soulful melodies will brighten the skies.

But for now, it’s still cold. So hang in there for a bit.

Get warm and keep it cool by checking out our new lineup at http://wrct.org/schedule
