Local Artist Spotlight

Local Artist Spotlight

Photo: 106.1 The Corner


106.1 The Corner is a different kind of radio station. One major difference is that we actually support and play local and regional bands from Charlottesville and Central Virginia.

We have a weeknightly feature called Live and Local. Mon-Fri at 8pm, where we give you a rundown of some local concerts and play music by local artists. We also feature local music 7 days a week in our Local Artist Spotlights, and on our two hour-long Local Trax show Wednesdays at 10pm.

Are you a local artist interested in submitting your music to 106.1 The Corner? Send a .wav file and bio/relevant info to Samantha at 1061thecorner@gmail.com

106-1 The Corner will review local music for production quality, lyrical content (no swearing, please), and of course if it is something we like that will fit the sound of our station.

This year’s song of the summer is a ballad, not a banger. Here’s what that says about us
