WRIR’s Sept Fund Drive brings live music and special guests presents:
WRIR is the only radio station in Richmond with this many live performances. To kick things off, ten bands are playing in WRIR’s live room, including a rare performance by Richmond legends, Kepone! When you donate to WRIR, come to the station to donate in person. You can stay to watch the band. It is intimate and exciting. You can pick up your premiums, too. The studio is at 1621 W. Broad Street. And stay tuned because even more bands may be added during the fund drive.
