Swing Shift Shuffle Fall Pledge Drive Special Tonight - New For 1934!

WEVL is just a little over halfway through our Fall Pledge Drive, and included in our special programming is tonight's Swing Shift Shuffle Pledge Drive Special:  "New For 1934!"  All the songs in tonight's show were recorded in 1934, and many have never been played on the show before.  Tune in at 6:00 p.m. for an 80 year trip back in time, and help WEVL reach its goal of $67,000.  Thanks for listening and supporting WEVL!
