Every weekend local music geeks unite to provide the region with 11 hours of creatively curated tunes on WOUB 1340AM, an endeavor that is known commonly as Radio Free Athens! Typically the program runs from 9 a.m. EST to 8 p.m. EST every Saturday, and can also be heard through this link.

Here is a list of the DJs slated to play on Saturday, June 30:

9 a.m. to 12 p.m. – DJ Arty Mac
12 p.m. to 3 p.m. – Dave Baer
3 p.m. to 6 p.m. – R@t
6 p.m. to 8 p.m. – Michael T

Below, find a preview of some of the groovy tunes that will be flowing through the airwaves this Saturday from a couple of our volunteer DJs.


From DJ Arty Mac, 9 a.m. – 12 p.m. EST 

DJ Arty Mac was named after the eclectic playlists curated during each show.

Like a gifted toddler given full reign over her collage, DJ Arty Mac playfully pastes together songs she believes go together. Oftentimes, the music shares underlying influences of jazz and blues.

She is anticipating a big move to the big easy in the next upcoming months, and that is reflected in her creole and dixieland inspired choices. Sip your coffee and tune in to Radio Free Athens Saturday morning 9-12 a.m. — she’ll do all the rest.

From R@T, 3-6 p.m. EST

For my show we will celebrate the end of Ohio Brew Week with some songs about beer and drinking. Probably take a listen to some new music such as the new Neko Case, Nathaniel Rateliff and Jayhawks. If there is any of it in the computer. I really miss Haffa’s.
