A Wintry “Light From the Underground” for Cowboys and Groundhogs, Saturday, 10AM-1PM EST!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Brrrrrrr!

A cold front has gone through and it feels much colder than it has in Michigan for a week or two!

That’s perfect timing as I ( @philmaq )fill in for Bill Keith on Saturday’s “Light From the Underground” from 10AM-1PM EST!!!

I had more than enough songs for my Wednesday “Theme Attic” show (heard on Wednesdays from 12PM-4PM EST) to do 2 shows!

I also added some more tunes to my pending mix, so I’m ready to deliver plenty of new music as well as several quirky classics!

The Winter accessories will just be a little…(ahem), “icing” on the cake!

A Top 9 at 11:09 EST of NEXT WEEK’S Fave Countdowns with several new entries will add to the festivities!

15 artists with ties to Southeast Michigan gives the show a nice local flavor!

Songs by artists on today’s show (But not in order) should include @twangtownparamours @kyragordonmusic (Her picture is second from the right in the banner!), Roger Ponder, @rp_mixon @marybethhowellmusic (Her album cover for “Part of the Landscape” is on the right in the banner!), @garybrowe @steve_madewell @marsfm.band (Their “Your Branches” album cover is on the bottom of the banner!), @theragbirds @chickenwirecanoe (@mikegentrymusic ), Neale Eckstein (@fxrn )(His album cover for “Never Too Late” is on the upper left in the banner!), @bjeanmusic @jennifercutting with Lisa Moscatiello @alphanaut @shanependy (His “Winter Grace” album cover is on the right in the banner!), @judybanker (Judy is playing @silviostrattoria in Canton, Michigan Saturday night at 6!), @lindenthoburnmusic @ceolsigemusic @mjewettmusic @robb.cairns @stevetaylormusic (The Steve Taylor 3 are playing @trinityhousetheatre in Livonia, Michigan Saturday night!), @sueradnerhorowitz @earthquakelights @johnlatini @gmoneylasmith and more!!!

So, join @philmaq as I celebrate Groundhogs, Cowboys, Winter, etc., as a substitute host on Saturday’s “Light From the Undrerground” from 10AM-1PM EST!

A Cold Wolf Moon Is the Setting for the “Theme Attic” 14th Anniversary Show Pt.2, Wednesday 12PM-4PM EST!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Theme Attic” returns on Wednesday from 12PM-4PM EST, after a few weeks hiatus with @philmaq !

And the show continues to celebrate it’s 14th anniversary!

Plus the celebration is so big that it encompassed another year!

I’m starting to get things together with a new computer, but I have a ways to catch up, so some of the posts will still be evolving.

The setting for this show is the cold, wolf, full moon coming up!

That means I will be trying to fit in as many Seasonal songs that I can!

There’s a couple of other anniversaries today as well as other things as well as a Top 9 at 2:o9 Fave Albums Countdown!

Plenty of local music, too!

So tune in to 89.3 FM in the Dearborn-Detroit area or use this link to stream it: https://whfr.fm/streamer/ !

Please spread the fun and share the post!
