WXYC Live Stream (Celebrating 25 years on the internet!):
Today’s live on-air performance is a debut across the board: not only is it's the band's first-ever performance, but it's the first time any of the members have been in a rock band at all. Jordan High students Dave Cantwell, Lizzie Killian, Fikri Yucel, and Ryan Seagrist have given a slew of marching band and recital performances between them, but here they're venting their rock ambitions for the first time as Blab School. Tune in today at 7 pm for a live set and interview, and get rocked by the next generation's youthful energy and uncanny assimilation of postpunk influences.
Are y'all ready to groove to some good music? I sure hope so because tonight's TNF (9 pm to 12 am) features JAZZ performed in Asia, inspired by Asian musical traditions, and recorded by Asian and Asian-American musicians. The tracks will span nearly 100 years and include appearances by legends of the genre and lesser-known artists alike. Be sure to tune in!
