So you say there's nothing new on the radio anymore?  You say radio is dead?  Same for music TV?
Well if you're tired of the same old radio/tv formulas, why not try something new of the local variety.  Local radio and public-access television are bringing something fresh to the airwaves and helping local listeners discover new  local bands each and every week.

Dont Miss These Great Opportunities to Hear Local Music on the Radio and See Local Music on the Television.  The Asheville Music Scene commends these stations for featuring our local musicians and hopes to see even more local-focused music programming in the future.
