Stuff We're Thinking About

Listen to Music Near the Gardens LIVE on WXDU!

Starting 5.28 and then every Wednesday in June, WXDU and Duke Arts will be joining forces with The Pinhook, Durham’s oldest active small music venue, to present energetic shows with artists from all over the country. All shows will be held at 7pm on East Campus on the lawn behind the East Duke Building. They will also be broadcast LIVE on WXDU! Roll up or tune in to catch incredible artists like The Lover Boyz, Black Belt Eagle Scout + T. Gold, Meltdown Rodeo, Adeem the Artist, Anjimile, Speed Stick, and more surprise guests. After parties on those dates are also all ages and will be held @ The Pinhook beginning at 9pm. Entry is free and families are welcome!

It's time! Hopscotch Day Party: Annual Ritual of Summoning LIVE on WXDU, 9/6 starting at noon!

The three lobed and smashed plastic hopscotch day show is on September 6 from noon to 5 at kings in raleigh. Come check out live sets from pipe, full size, silver scrolls, object hours, and powers/rolin duo. The show will be broadcast live on WXDU and is for all ages and free.

 

Broadcasting fun & noise from the Pinhook LIVE on WXDU, 7/6 starting at 7pm!

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!

 

Listen Online

Listen on Your Phone!

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!

 

The WXDU Archives

 October 2013 marked our 30th year on the air, and in celebration we launched an ongoing project to put archival material online.
