Top Five New Rock Acts Weekend
Every week, we have a meeting to determine what our weekend them will be. Sometimes it's a struggle and sometimes an idea easily comes to us.
I think the type of beverage we are consuming during these meetings helps the creative process. At least that's what we keep telling each other.
During this week's theme weekend meeting, Jim and I were reminiscing about how well many of the artists and bands we play on The Whale did during the year they debuted. There are several who were in the Top 5 best new acts of the year.
So, this weekend, we are recognising those bands and artists through double-shots of their songs each hour. Enjoy!
Remember to take us wherever you go this weekend. You can hear us on your radio at 99.1 FM, online at 991thewhale.com, on your mobile phone with the new Whale App – search for 99.1 The Whale, and also as 99.1 The Whale on radioPup!
