9:30 Coffee Break: Radio Songs

April 09, 2013

April is Public Radio Month and we've been celebrating by looking back at our live in-studios, feel free to vote for the in-studio song you want to hear tomorrow at 7am, and celebrating the great public radio all across the nation. Your fellow Morning Show listener, Jill, from White Bear Lake, had a great idea to help continue the celebration. Jill said, "In honor of Public Radio month you should play songs that mention the word radio in their title or lyrics. I was going to use this suggestion for a member drive, but kept forgetting. This is even better."

It's a great idea, Jill. Let's hear your suggestions for our radio song Coffee Break.

Remember to sign up to win our Coffee Break on the Road. Jill and Steve will bring Peace Coffee, and Birchwood Cafe treats to your work. As a special treat this month, they will also be bringing Josh Ritter fresh off his First Ave gig April 25. Enter to win at: CoffeeBreak@TheCurrent.org
