This Thanksgiving Weekend, pack your bags because we are going on an adventure … through time! It’s The Current’s Time Machine Weekend.
Starting Wednesday at 5 a.m. Central, we’re cranking back the dials to explore a different year of music every hour. Hear tracks from the 1960s and ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s, the oughts, 2010s, all the way up to today. It’s the perfect soundtrack for your Thanksgiving celebration. Tune in, use the free smartphone app, tell your smart speaker to play The Current, or stream right here at thecurrent.org.
