Studio B Rewind Host Kim Clark says the focus on this week's show is on domestic bliss and acoustic roots music. "We'll listen to The Appalucians, two talented Western NC couples who met at their kids' preschool, in Studio B playing songs from their debut album Bright Hills plus the husband-and-wife duo Birds of Chicago, said Clark. "They got together in Chicago, now live in Nashville, and stopped by our studio as part of their tour in support of the new release Love In Wartime."

1968 was a transformative year for both America and American music. The social, cultural, and political upheaval that year was captured well by the artists and recordings of Stax Records. From Otis Redding's tragic death in December of '67, through the chaos sparked by the assassinations of MLK and RFK, Stax was a beacon of musical harmony in the midst of a segregated era.

This week we're going to reach back into the archives to listen to some past sessions with artists who currently have new albums on our playlist. We'll hear the late great Charles Bradley performing live for us in 2013, Nikki Hill from 2014, and the Bottle Rockets in our studio in a 2015 session. Join host Kim Clark every Sunday at 7pm for a look back at amazing sessions recorded in Studio B at WNCW.

We love it when we can bring some Holiday cheer to Studio B each year around this time, and this year it's Morganton jazz guitarist Joseph Hasty, who promises a festive selection of seasonal songs with what sounds like a great group of fellow jazz greats. They play the Purple Onion in Saluda on Thursday evening.

Get to know this great Gulf Coast Soul band from Houston! The 8-piece band has been busy these last couple years, playing 300+ gigs including NPR's Tiny Desk, The Daily Show, and Jimmy Kimmel Live.

On Tuesday, December 4th, one of Brevard, North Carolina's favorite singer/songwriters, Dave Desmelik, returned to WNCW, this time with an Army of Love!
