John Patrick — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 17:42:50 +0000

Just dug this one out of the vault. Brett Dennen stopped by to visit back in 2007 and Bob the Engineer shot this video. This was back before we got all fancy with jib cameras and what not. Enjoy!

Cincinnati's Walk the Moon on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon

Aaron Sharpe — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 17:05:25 +0000

Last Thursday night, Walk the Moon appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Jimmy's always been known for being ahead of the curve when it comes to his musical guests. Of course, Jimmy also says in this clip that Walk the Moon's debut album is coming out this summer which leaves us with the following question:

What on earth have we been playing on WNKU for the past 18 months!?!

Thank You

Daryl Hall & Grace Potter make beautiful music together. The two of them collaborated recently for the internet buzz blog, "Live at Daryl's House".

We collaborate every day to make beautiful music for your house, your car, office, or wherever you go!

WNKU must raise $500,000 in member support by the end of the fiscal year in order to meet budget and keep bringing you all of the beautiful music you've come to expect every day.

If you've never given before, please become a new member today.

If you've not given in the last 12 months, please renew.

If you have given but feel you can do a bit more, now is a great time.

Carolina Chocolate Drops opening for Dave Matthews Band

Aaron Sharpe — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 19:36:57 +0000

Last week, Riverbend announced that Dave Matthews Band would be returning this summer for a show on May 29th. Dave has long been known to showcase acts by having them open shows for his band. More often than not, the bands he showcases are only known to folks like you, the WNKU fan. This tour is no exception as Dave welcomes along a WNKU favorite, The Carolina Chocolate Drops. Tickets go on sale March 9th.

Check out this video from the last time they paid us a visit. It was long ago when our logo was different and we didn't have as many frequencies.

Butch Walker teams up with Wooderson

Butch Walker started out as a member of acclaimed band The Marvelous 3 and has since enjoyed equal success as both a solo artist and producer. In addition to five studio albums released since 2002, he was named Producer of the Year by Rolling Stone in 2005 and his songs have been hits for artists like Weezer, Pink, Katy Perry, Avril Lavigne, Panic! At the Disco and many others.

We've been playing Butch Walker & the Black Widows on WNKU since sometime last year and love what we've heard.

We also have our share of fans of the movie, "Dazed & Confused" here at WNKU, so when we saw this video we simply had to share it.
