Yesterday morning, a bunch of us from the station joined up with Phi Mu Alpha for their annual Safe Halloween, where all of the clubs on campus each get their own room in Mason Hall to act as a front door of a house for the kids of Fredonia to go trick or treating. This is one of our favorite events to be apart of because we get to dress up, hand out candy and put smiles on kids’ faces! This morning, we put on our raincoats and boots to join the ACA’s Annual Fall Sweep, where

Say hello to the people behind the amazing radio show, The Voice of Fred on WDVL 89.5!

STEP ROCKETS: Step Rockets have developed a reputation as one of the most exciting new live bands on the scene, seamlessly blending wailing guitar solos and anthemic melodies with infectious dance grooves. Comprised of Josh Von Mink, John Synhavsky, Brady Lillie, and Anthony Schulz, the band has found the right balance between refining their classic sound, and embracing their new one.

Today at FRS, we hosted an Alumni Reception for Fredonia’s Alumni Weekend, where the past and present of Fredonia Radio Systems came together over the love for college radio.

Also, we hosted an Alumni Media Panel for students to learn about job opportunities and how to present yourself to future employers, which included panelists, J

JOYCE MANOR: An American punk rock band from Torrance, California, Joyce Manor, named after an apartment building, was formed in 2008. Recommended if you like Tiger’s Jaw and The Front Bottoms, Joyce Manor’s raw sound and two minute hype songs have kept their fans asking for more.

DRUGDEALER: After stints making music under the names Run DMT and Salvia Plath, L.A. artist Michael Collins changed his name to the less pun-based, yet still provocative Drugdealer. Run DMT had been a lo-fi psychedelic project starting in 2009 and Salvia Plath, was a folkier, more layered approach. With Drugdealer, Collins changed directions again, looking to the singer/songwriters of the early ‘70s and soft rock pioneers like Harry Nilsson for inspiration. The band’s 2016 al
