    WRIR's River City Limits 4-1-23, Jay Smack Host

    This episode was originally broadcast on WRIR's local music show (one of them anyway) River CIty Limits, which runs every Saturday evening at 5 and hosted by a revolving line-up of DJs.  This episode of RCL features new music from Bucket, Cream Dream, Jonathan Vassar, DUST~, McKinley Dixon, Crucial Rip, Horsehead and Honest Debts and more local music that's not as new.  It also features a single by Deau Eyes, the recent winner of the Newlin Prize for Richmond area music.  
    Much of the music played on River City Limits and the Studio B RVA podcast can be found on my Bandcamp page.  As much of the music as possible played on both shows is purchased.

- Great to see the growth of the radio show into a global force -Richmond music in the spot light for more than 20 years, with a diverse selection of genres this podcast offers insight into a unique area of the United states that produces a wide spectrum of sounds. This is the go - to pod cast for Richmond!

Dan Gravelthroat ,

Best music podcast around!

A great eclectic mix of some of the greatest musicians and songwriters out of RVA (and the surrounding areas.) Episode offers something new and wonderful; no two episodes are alike! I particularly like the host and the announcer.
