Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 18th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)

Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo. Tune in to this live session and hear for yourself!

Wed. Dec 25th, Noon - 3pm: The 18th Annual Holiday Music Funktacular! (More info...)

It’s the 18th year of the Evan “Funk” Davies Show Holiday Music Funktacular, and this year — for the first time ever — it will air on actual Christmas Day! Tune in for three hours of Christmas music that you won’t already be sick of hearing: old and new seasonal rock, punk, dance, glam, and power pop favorites. Even your family might enjoy it!
