Radio Friends!

WUTC’s broadcast signal might go low power at times today, but this show is anything but!

Let’s do a NightFall 2026 Concert Series warm up for the June 5 show in Miller Plaza & Miller Park in our fair city. The High Suarts open at 7pm, Wyatt Ellis at 8pm. Front loaded a bunch of their tracks and other bluegrass songs to kick things off.

Next we mine my Shazam Tracks with a hint of new music and directional feels.

10 AM to 12 noon on 88.1 FM and HD1 in Chattanooga and the Tennessee Valley, wutc.org and the WUTC app to stream everywhere.

Playlists!

Track list!
