CONGRATS WKDU! during last week’s CMJ Music Marathon, WKDU, Drexel’s radio station, won both Station of the Year and Biggest Champion of The Local Scene! As a kdu Dj, Philly music fan, and a local artist, I think these awards are totally rad and an awesome recognition to a deserving station. Congrats to all the execs and djs-and thanks to the fans and listeners for making these awards possible!
local act Spinning Leaves performing at Big Jar Books-lay back and let Michael and Barbara’s sweet voices drift you away. seriously chill folk music, calling to mind the greats from the sixties, but still perfect for present day autumn in Philadelphia.
