UPCOMING SPECIAL BOUDIN BARNDANCE SHOW INFO:
April 6-20 – WRIU RADIOTHON fundraiser!
April 23– Album You Need to Hear feature
Another Boudin Barndance radio show in the books! We began with our usual hour of mostly new and recent releases before moving into our weekly C&W segment. The 2nd half of the program began with a birthday remembrance set for the late David Olney who was a native Rhode Islander. Odds & ends filled the final hour. We have our annual WRIU Radiothon Fundraiser coming up from April 6-20 with the Boudin Barndance editions happening on April 9 & 16.
