Every other week, in our email newsletter (eNews) we send out a cool music discovery video. It's exclusively sent out for a first look to those signed up for our eNews. Lots of other cool station things and behind the scenes looks happen in the eNews. You should sign up for it at our website.

The most recent one, Willow Avalon's new song with Jason Isbell, "Cardinal Sin" can be found at our website, now.

Willow Avalon is one of our favorite music discoveries of the past few years. Her latest endeavor features Jason Isbell!

🎶 Today’s the day! WEXT’s Pledge Drive is underway. 🎶

WEXT is more than a radio station—it’s a community of music lovers, curious listeners, and passionate supporters of the Local 518 music scene.

Every day, we help you discover new artists, reconnect with forgotten favorites, and experience the incredible talent being created right here in our own backyard. From emerging Local 518 musicians to the artists shaping tomorrow’s playlists, WEXT is where music discovery lives.

If WEXT has introduced you to a new favorite song, connected you to a local artist, or made your day a little brighter, now is the time to give back.

Your support keeps independent music, local voices, and community-powered radio strong.

❤️ Make your gift today: Support WEXT at http://www.wextradio.org/donate
