WRCT: a radio station

Tune into Pinkney Hall on Fridays from 9-10 a.m. for the follow themed broadcasts:

Friday, December 6 — For Pinkney Hall’s first show of December, we will feature music by local musicians.

Friday, December 13 — We will forgo the “superstition” theme and play music by folks born in December.

Friday, December 20 — On December 20, we will play music related to Jesus of Nazareth. No Christmas carols or holiday music though!

Friday, December 27 — On the last show of the year, we’ll play some of the best music that came into the station in 2013.

There’s a lot going on this weekend in the world of WRCT.

On tomorrow’s edition of the Saturday Light Brigade, tune in for Mexican guitarist Dieter Hennings and conductor Federico Garcia!

Beginning at 3pm, in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, we will broadcast “November 22, 1963: Portrait in Sound”.

It will be produced and narrated by WRCT host Jay Thurber, the hour-long program blends interviews with Carnegie Mellon University alumni (recorded in 2003), the hit songs of November 1963, original news broadcasts and Dallas police radio transmissions.

Listen to The Hustle with B-Side on Sunday from 10pm-12am for your chance to win tickets to “The Best of Keane Live from Berlin” screening at the SouthSide Works Cinema on Wednesday, December 11, 2013 at 7:30 PM.
