We have partnered with WDVX in the past with great success. After several meetings where Tony laid out his intent for the show at the Clayton Center to focus on Blount County, I knew it would enhance our community and partnering with WDVX would help bring it all together. think it will be a boon for us to highlight all Blount County has to offer and to expose more people to the Clayton Center and the talent and businesses that call Blount County home.”

Lawson, General Manager of WDVX, said “WDVX is very excited to produce a program that improves and highlights our quality of place through live music and culture. Collaborating with the Clayton Center for the Arts is a natural for WDVX to give Blount County and the region a platform for localism and community pride.” Each show is planned for the last Friday of the month. Some months, shows may be taken on the road to a different location and the plan is to produce shows 10 months out of the year.

We Love you Doug Lauderdale

RUMBLE ON, DOUG

 

Douglas Lauderdale is an irreplaceable part of the WDVX family.

Whether you knew him in person or through the airwaves, you wouldn’t hesitate to call him a friend. He was a fantastic deejay and a passionate music lover, with an unbelievable personality and the ability to make anyone laugh. Doug never missed a beat, was extremely quick witted, and you better believe that when he was on the air he liked to play the music LOUD.

We will miss him dearly, but his legacy will “Rumble On” at WDVX with every song we play and every record we spin, and for Doug we will be sure to play it loud. Alongside his family, we hope that Doug’s friends and fans will join us for a Celebration of Life honoring Doug on Thursday, September 20th at 7pm at Barley’s Knoxville, featuring music from one of Doug’s favorite bands, The Royal Hounds.

THANKS to the News Sentinel for this article about Doug.

Camper Day is coming August 1, 2018!

Join us for our One Day Fund Drive to benefit WDVX and The Camper!

 

WDVX hit the ground running on November 5, 1997, in the infamous “Camper”. For five years, WDVX broadcast and webcast day and night from the 16-foot structure that included three studios. Studio A, Studio B, and “Way Down The Hall in Studio C” are historical references around here. “The Camper” is special and there is nothing more WDVX-centric. Many listeners and fans have asked about “The Camper” recently and have expressed a desire to see it at more events.

We want to make this happen, but we need your help!

Whether you decide to make a one-time donation or become a sustaining member for as little as $5/month, we appreciate your support and look forward to bringing you real live music for the next twenty years!
