Another Radiothon season is here!
What’s Radiothon?
That’s the one time a year fundraiser that 89.3 WHFR.FM sets aside to ask our Loyal Listeners to help fund our station.
Let’s face it:
It’s a little awkward to ask for assistance to keep the station running, but that is how it keeps us on the airwaves!
And for that reason alone it is truly a Community Radio Station!
So, I will do my best to interest you to donate on Wednesday’s “Theme Attic” with Phil Maq, from 12PM-4PM EDT!
I will have some very special guests with me who believe in this initiative at least as much as I do!
Local Singer/Songwriter Judy Banker (my Favorite Banker!) will be assisting me for another year, and I can’t thank her enough for spending this time together!
Local Singer/Songwriter Roger Ponder will also be joining in the fun!
With both artists on board, the show will feature some kind of Songwriter Sessions along the way, and may even include yours truly!
There will be unique content!
World premieres!
And, hopefully, a lot of fun and frivolity!
We know that not everybody is in a position to donate.
For those whose load is heavy right now, we hope that the downturn is short, and that what we do can take your mind off your problems for a short while.
However, for those who are in a position to help, we humbly ask that you can make a donation and help us out!
Because the show will be kinda loose and spontaneous, I am not dividing any tags into sections this time.
All I will say is that there will be new released music: Dragon Inn 3 will start the show, and Sunnsetter with Guard Petal will close the show!
I have a Top 9 at 12:09 for this week’s Fave Songs, but it may take a while to complete it.
There will also be segments on upcoming Funky Rivertown Fest artists who will be coming up the rest of the week in Ypsilanti, Michigan!
Stats for the show: 2 artist debuts, 4 new releases, 14 artists with Southeast Michigan ties, 2 singles!!!
Pretty good for a somewhat spontaneous show!
Songs by other artists on the show should include Gary Browe Music (Gary Browe), Victor V. Gurbo (Victor Voccoli Gurbo), Randy Tessier (Randy Tessier), Jesca Hoop, MJ Bishop DIRK KROLL BAND (Dirk Kroll), Billy Brandt and the Sugaree’s (Billy Brandt)(Dirk and Billy are part of tonight’s Funky Rivertown Fest: Dirk Kroll Band and Billy Brandt and the Sugarees! in Ypsilanti!), Lyn Stanley, May Erlewine, Tracy Kash Music Page and Bobby Pennock Music (Tracy Kash, Bobby Pennock), Shannon Lee Music (Shannon Lee) (Shannon is part of Friday night’s Funky Rivertown Fest: Shannon Lee and the Silver Linings and Whiskey Charmers in Ypsilanti!), Bones and Jones, J. Michael & The Heavy Burden (They are part of a Saturday matinee Funky Rivertown Fest: J Michael and the Heavy Burden and Jive Colossus in Ypsilanti! Their new self titled album cover is on the right in the banner!) Lindenthoburnmusic (Linden Thoburn), (Linden is part of Funky Rivertown Fest: Linden Thoburn Trio and Billy King Band!, Judy Nazemetz (Judy Nazemetz), Jessica Dayle, and maybe more!!!
So grab a phone or computer to make a donation, get a friend or two to listen with, and come along for Wednesday’s “Theme Attic” from 12PM-4PM EDT with Phil Maq!!!
