Wearing our new shirt helps with word of mouth promotion. But just know it's not a donation. I get nothing from those things in terms of tangible money to pay our bills. I was just encouraged to make them because some of you have asked for some SWAG and I thought it would be a good way to make some SWAG available.
Meanwhile, what really helps is the paypal donation page. The patreon page is new and I'm not sure how to use it yet. Hopefully if you donate thru patreon we'll have access to the donation and can pay the bills.

Thanks to you folks we were able to meet our Summer Fund Drive goals so we can stay on at least thru the Fall! $ for music, music licensing fees so the artists get paid, station equipment upgrades and maintenance, Aside from that, our overhead is very low since we don't have a fancy studio or radio tower or anything. It's all done "in the cloud". But whatever you can do to help our and keep WreckingBallRadio.NET alive and well, that'd be awesome of you, as always! New: Another way to help WreckingBallRadio.NET when you're feeling generous is to buy stuff for the studios from our Amazon wish list, HERE.

Jayson Tanner - (and a dearly departed friend) Program & Music Director Wrecking Ball Radio. "I got into radio when I was 19 out in Walla Walla, Washington. after some time at Whitman College's KWCW I landed a job at KTEL - a little news, sports and country music station. Before too long I became their music director. It was my dream job, really. Same station Family Guy & Batman's Adam West began his career, btw. Moved to Florida in the mid 80's and spent some time as Music Director at Class 103 in Naples, back when they were 'THE' station to listen to. After that I hosted a popular weekly Sunday Jazz Brunch show on WAVV-101. I got out of radio for a while to pursue other interests and wound up back on the air at Eye-Q Radio in Miami where I began exclusively playing Americana and alt.country. This was back in 2000. Moved to North Carolina and found myself continuing the Americana/alt.country show at WCOM, a little community station here in Carrboro. The show got "syndicated" on a few other internet stations in the USA and UK - which was very cool. But a weekly 2 hour show just wasn't enough for me. Once I finally figured out how to put the pieces together for a full time internet-based radio station, and thanks to the generosity of friends who believed in this project (and my ability to pull it off and create something innovative, fun and interesting) - Wrecking Ball Radio was born in 2011. The station continues to survive ONLY on listener donations and, for that, we are eternally, extremely grateful." "This is my only real skill and it's becoming less and less marketable so I really do appreciate the support." |

He has a real ear for intelligent music, the kind that has something to say and which does not simply seek to replicate the past...."
Steve Swift, writing in 'Louder Than War'. "We play your station every day , and EVERY day, so many clients ask about the station because they LOVE the music that is played. We're sharing the good news! Thank you for playing great songs all the time."
