Love this radio from Memphis - Listening this radio from ... France - May I suggest them to add to their playlist the new song of the band called Merle Marlow Band called 'Honky Tonk right now' - They are a Canadian Band and I listened 3 times to them at the Saint Tite Festival in September - Their new song could become soon a hit - Thanks for playing this song on your radio read more

Slack key hawaiian guitar on Thursdays 8:30-9. Only 1/2 hr? It's so good. I'll always listen. New stuff better than I know. so many programs and all good. I don't live anywhere near Memphis but no matter where I am I stream this station. It's great from the spacey trance stuff Sunsay and Monday nights to Bruces folk song fiesta on Wed? Am. Thank you wevl! read more

LOVE the WEVL!!! I used to live in Memphis and YIL (yesterday I learned) I can say "Alexa-play WEVL" and delicious ear sounds happen in Garden City Kansas! read more

WEVL is a Memphis institution that doesn't suck like most other "Memphis Institutions". No matter your preferred flavor of music, it'll be on WEVL. I prefer the Modern World, Janet's Planet and the local show that's on 1-3 on Wednesday (I believe), but there's nothing like Sho Nuff Country with Bashful Bob. Even if you don't like country (and in general I don't) you have to love Bashful Bob. Sorry JB, but to me WEVL is too blues heavy. I agree with you though that the Fri Sat nights are not good. I also wish they would continue the 6am slots on to 9. Then again, I'm not down there volunteering. They are located on S. Main and love visitors. You should also join at wevl.org. read more

Memphis' only non-commercial AND listener-supported radio station! WEVL is not saddled by a specific format, but instead divides airtime into 1- to 3-hour "shows," each DJ'd by a local volunteer (with a few exceptions made for nationally syndicated shows). Thus, WEVL is like Memphis weather: if you don't like it right now, just stay tuned for an hour or so. Want to hear the latest indie releases? Check out "Janet's Planet" on the drive into work on Wednesdays or "Ear Candy" during the Thursday commute home. Prefer Celtic or bluegrass music? Then tune in to "Strands of the Celtic Knot" or "Bluff City Barn Dance," respectively, on Saturday mornings. Just about every genre of popular music is covered at some time during the week. Local musicians even get airplay on several of the shows. For more info (and to listen live on the Web), check out their Web site: www.wevl.org. read more

When I first moved to Memphis from the cold north, I still had the stereotype stuck in my head that everyone likes to click their spurs together, line dance, and go to rodeos. No offense or anything. I was clueless. What many folks do like is bluegrass. And I love it! If you go to the Farmer's Market in downtown Memphis, they'll occasionally have a bluegrass band milling around. I digress. I was with a friend and he asked me to turn the station to 89.9 and lo and behold, on came the bluegrass. It was great. I love turning the station on when I'm hanging around the house. It's a nice change of pace from pop. read more

I heart listener supported, volunteer radio- there's nothing better in my eyes. I have quite a love for radio too as it was my major in college. Nonsensical, probably, but fun nonetheless. I love the randomness of this station. There is no format, it is whatever the volunteer DJ feels like playing during his/her allotted time frame. They do have some syndicated shows, but I very rarely catch those. My favorites are Memphis Beat- a tribute to all things local band related in Memphis- and Janet's Planet- which is more of an Indie rock type play list. What I love most about this station is that I've picked up some new favorites I never would have heard of otherwise- old and new. I've also branched out my music genres. I never thought I could love bluegrass, but I do. Go figure. read more
