Posted on January 7, 2026 by PhilMaq

 

I decided to call an audible for this week’s show because I needed a Calendar realignment.

The first show of the year should start with a New Music Showcase!

Since I have played a ton of new music the past couple of weeks, I am going to make this a “plus” show where I get to deviate and include other music, too!

So, please join host @philmaq for a 2026 Winter New Music Showcase #1…Plus on Wednesday’s “Theme Attic” from 12PM-4PM EST!!!

That means I can also have a conversation with talented Songwriter/Singer @donarbor around 1PM EST!!!

A Top 9 at 2:09 EST adds to the fun!

Songs by artists will include @detjankrist @slightestclue @bluhmtheband Alex Little, @joedaiwarriors and and so much more!

So, let’s start the New Year with lots of new music on “Theme Attic” from 12PM-4PM EST at 89.3 FM (@whfrfmradio ) in the Dearborn-Detroit, Michigan area, use Bluetooth or Siri, or stream it with this special newmusicyshow link!: https://whfr.fm/streamer/ !
