Skribe at Starbucks 1/23
Wednesday, January 22nd, 2020 by WLOY Staff
Skribe returns to Loyola this Thursday for our weekly Coffeehouse. Skribe has been a WLOY favorite for many years, bringing not only his great lyrics and melodies to his performances but many special treats, as well. Skribe lead performer Aaron Yealdhall actually makes his own instruments, like his bass drum suitcase, gas can guitar and banjo, “canjo-zookie”, “merican canjo”, and “kazoobie kazoos”! Try to say those three times fast. His sound can be described as soulful “garage folk” and his music takes influence from The Great Outdoors. Skribe will be at Starbucks this Thursday from 8-10pm, so be sure to stop by and don’t miss out on the magic! We hope to see you there.

2019 Mayors Annual Christmas Parade
Saturday, December 14th, 2019 by The Professor
In a sea of lame commercial radio it takes a great college radio station to lead the way! Yep, once again, the local radio stations served up the bland and WLOY showed up with the fun! Snoopy once again reigned from atop his doghouse and all his friends handed out nearly 3000 candy canes along the parade route! This year’s parade was great and we have a lot of photos and video to share.

Mayor’s Annual Christmas Parade 2019
Friday, November 29th, 2019 by The Professor
Its that time of year again! And WLOY is ready to go. We’ve pulled the old float down from its hibernation and are cleaning it up for another parade. We’ve got candy canes, we’ve got a float, and we’ve got costumes! We’re prepping Snoopy’s playlist and getting ready to march down Falls Road to 36th Street and all the way to Chestnut.
Along the route we’ll pass some judges who won’t give us a trophy again (but we’re not bitter, really) and we’ll make a lot of kids happy with Snoopy and candy canes. Don’t worry, we’re not in it for the glory, we love it! Go HERE for all the details – see you Sunday December 8!
