national, breeders rock fountain square!

The rumours are true! The National and The Breeders, two bands with local ties, will team up for a FREE show, Thursday, October 16th on Cincinnati's Fountain Square.



Vote Early Rock Late is a Vote Obama Rally and will run from 5-9pm, featuring guest speakers in addition to performances by both bands. Additionally, buses will be shuttling registered voters (I.D. required) to the Hamilton County Election Center so participants can cast their ballot, since early voting will be underway.

SO...The National. The Breeders. FREE! See you there!

this week's artrocker radio show

Wednesdays at 6pm, we turn things over to our friends at London's Artrocker magazine for 90 minutes of some of the latest music that's buzzing in the UK underground. Your host, Paul Artrocker, co-founded the legendary Too Pure label, so he knows a thing or two about discovering new talent.

It's an all new, very clad in black edition this week with new music from THE HORRORS, Project: KOMAKINO, IPSO FACTO, S.C.U.M. and the unlikely return of THE DATSUNS. Throw in an Artrock classic from SPARKS and you've got a terrific 90 minutes of nearly all-new music.

If you miss it, you can always catch each week's show on its repeat Saturday night at 6, or listen whenever you like on-demand via the Artrocker page from the WOXY website.

xtrabeats returns this weekend

XTRABEATS returns from its recent hiatus this weekend with an all-new edition featuring 2 hours of the latest club tracks and music from the electronic underground. Tune in for new cuts and remixes from BOMB THE BASS, YO MAJESTY, NIKKA COSTA, MGMT, and KASPER BJORKE (F/ THE PIERCES).

Shiv will also be featuring a superb 30-minute DJ mix from RADIOACTIVE MAN (the UK DJ & producer also known as Keith Tenniswood from TWO LONE SWORDSMEN).

It airs Friday night from 8-10 eastern and Saturday night from 10-Midnight. You can also catch up with recent episodes of XTRABEATS on-demand right here!

the future of rock and roll turns 25

We're coming up on a pretty extraordinary milestone here at The Future Of Rock And Roll. On Labor Day weekend back in 1983, Doug & Linda Balogh flipped the switch on an FM radio station up in Oxford, Ohio. They sent over the following message to share with WOXY fans past and present and we'd like to share it with you.


25 years ago this weekend, U2's "Sunday Bloody Sunday" birthed the beginning of a dream ... 97X. A couple of decades later many of you listened to Steve Baker's eloquent final paragraph at midnight on May 13, 2004, when we closed the chapter on the "radio station."

We lived the American Dream for 23 years, working alongside so many talented, dedicated people who shared the passion ... too many to mention, but you know who you are! Little David did show Goliath that BIG isn't always better.

We want to say THANK YOU to the 97X People ~ staff and listeners ~ who forged that common bond of loyalty to the music. Dare To Dream, Dare To Do. A heartfelt standing ovation to you all.

BAM! ~ Doug and Linda Balogh, from retirement

P.S. We're soooooo glad and proud that The Music continues ~ with the same ethos ~ via woxy.com.

[this just in] on the futurist

We've added a new regular feature to The Futurist, [This Just In], where a WOXY.com DJ gives their thoughts on a record that has recently been added to our current rotation. Expect to be introduced to new artists alongside our takes on the latest efforts from those you may already be familiar with. We'll even throw in an MP3 or a video for you to check out if we can get our hands on one. Joe's already posted introductions to two new artists he's just discovered, HORSE FEATHERS and KRISTOFFER RAGNSTAM, while Shiv raves about GENTLEMAN AUCTION HOUSE. Check it out!
