Everything and anything you don’t want to hear (the good stuff anyways). You’re likely to hear some okay alright sounds.

The UnCola
Every Tuesday at 8 PM est, we play Forgotten Pop from the last 50 years. You may hear a Horn Rock Blast, a WestCoast Breeze, an Un-Cover, a Forgotten Top 40, or an UnSung Hero. Sometimes Tony Manero drops by on his way to White Castle to play a forgotten dance classic. And we always have the XTC song of the week….yessssss!
We also schedule various theme shows, especially specific to a genre or an artist. You can drop us a line at ErikMattox at AshevilleFM dot org.
Riffin’
Listening to music with friends. A weekly mix-tape of songs often neglected but “not to be missed” as recommended by guests who take time to “riff” about their love of music. -While this mission statement is still true in essence, as of April 2015 the show has evolved into THE forum for all things Carolina Rock ‘n’ Roll, with emphasis on regional garage rock bands from the 1960s. The show has taken on a number of close friends, supporters and regular contributors such as noted NC record collector and curator Ken Friedman of the great Tobacco-A-Go-Go compilations, Asheville historian and vinyl archivist Rick Russell who has become a permanent guest and co-host with his “box of tricks” giving us the welcome opportunity to play straight to the airwaves from his amazing collection of rare original 45 records. Daniel Coston, who has written the book on NC ’60s rock is a willing collaborator and partner in crime. The list goes on… including dozens of original artists who have made appearances, over the phone AND in person. The standing invitation is open… if you like what you hear and have song/artist requests/suggestions or would like to appear on the show, PLEASE GET IN TOUCH with your host: vancepollock at hotmail dot com. Stay Tuned!
