Happy 4th of July From Acoustic Highways

Happy 4th! Join us at 1pm Saturday when Acoustic Highways takes to the road and celebrates these United States: 91.5 FM in Central Florida or www.wprkdj.org.

Hey hey hey 321/407,

Yall are beautiful. I am not in Orlando, but I did go see this band play at a bar/club in Jacksonville. Johnathan Appleseed. I've never really listened to them before but they impressed me! Most definitely great live and good music, hopefully they'll be in Orlando soon.

Also, I was driving down the road with my windows down playing Mumpsy, stopped at a red light and for sure did I get 'hollaed' at for the awesome tunes.

Score. I love music. Agreed? Agreed.

xoxo,
Jaclynn Fretshredder<3 <3 <3

Bon Iver Live

I saw Bon Iver live with a few other fellow WPRKers (Adam and Chris Tuesdays 8am-10am, and Bradley "Everybody's Doing It" on Saturdays) and thought it was great! The show opened with Elvis Perkins performing a wonderful set full of energy and life. Something was going on every second of the show to watch. When Bon Iver came on, each person played at least two instruments and they all sang at times. After the show, they were kind enough to hang out with fans and autograph things and give us a station ID. A few nights later I caught up with them in St. Pete and got some photos. The show was different but just as good. Bon Iver is definitely a band to keep up with. All of us at WPRK are excited for the release of "Blood Bank."
