An informal pledge drive to keep WGXC on through the fall. During some shows, WGXC hosts will be asking listeners to call in with pledges to support the station -- and most of the week we will be featuring local musicians from Greene and Columbia counties. Listen to "Local Music Week" with featured CD cuts, live recordings, live phone calls, and more every night after radio theater at midnight all this week on WGXC. WGXC will feature lots of local music all week on many shows, from classical to jazz, to folk to rock, Irish music to the Black Arts Festival, and much more. There will be additional live broadcasts of musicians from Greene and Columbia counties during the WGXC Afternoon Show, and some of the WGXC Morning Shows. Call in 518-828-0290 to pledge and become a WGXC Member, and help keep WGXC on 90.7-FM.
