For New York Music Month WKCR takes over the Record Shop in Red Hook Brooklyn for a daytime broadcast hosted by WKCR’s own Prezzo of Groove Trackers Radio and Ayanna Heaven of Across 110th St for an afternoon of conversation, music, digging and more. The station invites artists and music lovers alike to come through and learn more about their station ethos, and why supporting the alternative is so essential. 

WKCR is Columbia University’s non-commercial student-run FM radio station, dedicated to presenting a spectrum of alternative and local programming — focusing on traditional and art music, spoken arts, and original journalism. The station exists to preserve and share independent music, news, art, and history with listeners, and has long been a launch pad for emerging artists here in NYC - going back to The Stretch and Bobbito Show, Monday Morning in Mono + more! - and remains a vital incubator for local news and new artists trying to connect with local audiences. Long live 89.9 FM!

All throughout June, some of NYC’s finest stations - WFMU, WFUV, WKCR, WNYC, WNYE, The Lot Radio -  will host FREE events with community partners to re-introduce themselves to the city, share their mission and musical identities, and educate artists on avenues of access to airplay and music fans on exposure to the airwaves.
