As West Liberty comes back from spring break, WGLZ will be introducing some new music formats. Previously, WGLZ had mostly been a Top 40 format. However, WGLZ is expanding it’s horizon and looking to broaden it’s listener base. WGLZ previously aired an Unsigned Artists playlist every night at 10:00 PM. Now, we will be airing the Unsigned Artists playlist every morning from 7:00-9:00 AM in addition to every night at 10:00 PM. Next, every night at 6:00 PM will be the all Rock hour. Lastly, we will be airing a new playlist called Something for Everyone. During the hours that it airs, you will hear Rock, R&B, Unsigned Artists, Soul, World, Pop, New Age, Metal, Jazz, Latin, Electronica, Easy Listening, Folk, Country, Alternative & Punk, Classical, and Hip Hop. You can hear this when tuning in at 11:00 AM, 3:00 PM, and 11:00 PM. The other 17 hours will still consist of the Top 40 Hot Clock. We look forward to having you tune in and joining us in our new endeavors. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, WGLZ can be reached by email at wglz@westliberty.edu.
