Each Sunday and Wednesday at 8pm, join host Peter Hughes for two hours of concerts and culture as recorded by WAMC On The Road. You’ll be treated to exceptional music from rock to blues to jazz to world beats . . . and everything in between. WAMC Live in Concert is a curated collage -- a musical mosaic -- featuring a kaleidoscope of sound from our partner venues in communities across the WAMC listening area along with old favorites archived from The Linda – WAMC’s Performing Arts Studio.
