STRAND ON THE AIR TAKES AIM AT CABIN FEVER IN FEBRUARY BROADCAST

  • On the airwaves! 93.3 FM WRFR-LP 20 Gay Street Rockland, ME 04841 USA (map)

Fire up the woodstove, break out the board games, and crank up the radio as the STRAND ON THE AIR does its part to fight cabin fever in its February broadcast over WRFR. House Manager Liz McLeod, announcer Dan Bookham, musical director Brittany Parker, and the Strand Family Players will clear the way to springtime in an hour full of laughs and tunes, joined by special musical guests Goldenoak, who will offer a quick preview of their upcoming June 10th Strand concert. The intrepid journalists of All Things Rescinded will take a look at the burgeoning new pandemic-inspired musical genre of “grumblecore,” featuring the radio debut of the hard-driving alternative band “Karen’s Spleen,” along with a nostalgic look at Town Meeting season as it used to be, and a preview of our coming travails with mud season. Professor Dan Bookham will offer a poetic rumination on the unpredictability of late-winter weather, and down in Abysmal Point, Mrs. Grunden, Lilita, and the gang will gather round the kitchen table to drive off the winter blues with a hard-fought no-quarter-asked-and-none-given game of full-contact Monopoly. The Strand on the Air, written and directed by Liz McLeod, will be heard Sunday February 27th over WRFR, 93.3 in Rockland and worldwide over the web at WRFR.org. After the broadcast the program will be available for download from leading podcast platforms and at rocklandstrand.com.
