Classic Rock Influental Artist Weekend

Welcome to the Weekend!

Weekends are for fun, relaxation, parties, get-togethers and themes. It's the theme part that we excel at. This weekend, we decided to honor Rock-n-Roll's most influential artists and bands.

These are rockers that have had a huge influence on the rock music world. They helped shape the many aspects of Rock-n-Roll. For example, Nirvana was a huge influence on the Grunge part of the rock world, and helped shape it into what it became, along with giving budding musicians a great stepping stone to their musical future.

Can you imagine how many groups owe their existence to bands who influenced their thinking, style and beyond, to groups like Led Zeppelin, The Who, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd? This weekend, we highlight those artists and bands with hourly double-shots.

Enjoy the weekend with these cool tunes from The Whale’s Classic Rock Library, and by the way, we’re always looking for ideas for Classic Rock theme weekends, so if you have an idea you’d like us to give a shot, let us know!

Have a rockin’ weekend, and remember to take 99.1 The Whale wherever you go, so you won’t miss all that great Classic Rock. You can hear us three ways - on your radio at 99.1 FM, online at 991thewhale.com and on your mobile phone with radioPup!
