Fans of the electric guitar take heed: there is a new brood of spazzy & emotive, noise-damaged punk rock awash in north carolina. On Saturday July 6th beginning at 7pm, some of these young practitioners will take the stage of the Pinhook for an early show in Durham: teachmehowtodance, tractor beam, emily grimm, and sesame. Get acquaninted! We will be broadcasting the show live from the Pinhook on WXDU 88.7, so tune in if you can't make it out!
No, we don't have a custom WXDU mobile app. We've found something BETTER: an app that will let you listen to any streaming radio station: TuneIn Radio, powered by TuneIn.com. It allows you to record, pause & rewind streams, view cover art & artist info. And it's available for iPhone & Android!
October 2013 marked our 30th year on the air, and in celebration we launched an ongoing project to put archival material online.
