WDVX
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WDVX-FM is a Knoxville, Tennessee, FM radio station broadcasting at 89.9 and 102.9 Mhz.
WDVX plays American roots music, including bluegrass, Americana, classic country, alternative country, Western swing, blues, old time and traditional mountain music, bluegrass gospel, Celtic, and folk.
Incorporated in 1991, WDVX is licensed by the FCC to the Cumberland Communities Communications Corporation, a not-for-profit organization whose main focus is the music, folklore and arts of the southern Appalachian mountains.
WDVX was named Bluegrass Radio Station of the Year in 2003, 2005 and 2007, and its program hosts have been named Bluegrass DJ of the Year award by the 33-year-old Society for Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America (SPBGMA).
The listener-supported station's signal is streamed on the Web, attracting a following around the world. For example, in 2006 it was featured in the German-language America Journal.
It is one of few American radio stations to feature almost daily live musical performances. The WDVX Blue Plate Special is a lunch-time concert at the Knoxville Visitor's Center on the city's main downtown shopping street. The Knoxville Tourism Alliance recognized the Blue Plate Special as the Attraction of the Year at its annual awards luncheon in 2006.
The Oxford American magazine, a journal of Southern (U.S.) culture, has called WDVX "probably the best radio station in the world."
