GREAT web simulcast - Acoustic Americana Music Calendar & News - special post, for event on Oct 9, 2008:

.
Thu, Oct 9; on web/radio simulcast:
6 am (Pacific time) MISSY RAINES & THE NEW HIP perform on a web/radio simulcast on “Acoustic Sunrise” from WNRN 91.9 FM in Charlottesville, Virginia, at “about 9 am [Eastern time; that’s 6 am Pacific!],” available at www.wnrn.org. Seven-time IBMA “Bass Player of the Year” Award winner MISSY RAINES brought her freshly-minted bluegrass/newgrass/Americana/jazz-influenced band, THE NEW HIP, for its on-air debut on radio’s “Tied to the Tracks.” This is a chance to catch up with this innovative, first-rate band, comprised of MISSY RAINES, MICHAEL WITCHER, ETHAN BALLINGER, and DILLON HODGES, and to hear their new music. Missy tells us, “I'm really excited to be coming to my old stomping grounds, Charlottesville, VA for the first time with my new band. I'll also be live on the air with Anne Williams' ‘Acoustic Sunrise.’” Missy adds, “Still catching up on sleep lost at IBMA- and still smiling with memories of seeing old friends and meeting new ones, hearing some good music and learning about all things bluegrass and related. We've just added a bunch of new photos on our website. Check out our Gallery page and check back often - new stuff coming in all the time. The Nashville CARES Aids Walk a huge success! Together, we surpassed my goal and we raised over $850 for this worthy cause!”
