Were you worried your Wednesday night wasn’t going to have enough musical inspiration? Well, don’t fret because WKNC and Schoolkids Records have partnered up to bring you the first ever MUSIC MOVIE NIGHT, a brand new monthly series of music documentary and movie screenings at Schoolkids Records in Mission Valley! This Wednesday at 7pm, we’re kickin’ it off with Gandulf Hennig’s “Fallen Angel: Gram Parsons.”
“As the founder of the Flying Burrito Brothers, a member of the hit-making, legendary Byrds, an important influence on the Rolling Stones and the man who catapulted Emmylou Harris to fame, Gram Parsons made music history in only a few years…Friends, contemporaries and devotees of Gram Parsons talk about the importance of his work and the bizarre circumstances of his early death. Rare footage of his performances shows why Gram Parsons has become a legend.”
This event is free and open to the community!
Schoolkids Records will have beer available on tap:
Bells Two Hearted Ale
Long Rider Sweet Josie
Sweetwater 420
Shiner Bock
Dogfish Head Punkin Ale

Parking is available in the Mission Valley parking lot. Come hang out with us on Wednesday! We’ll see you there!
PJ Sykes of Hoax Hunters swung by the Hopscotch live broadcast table to talk a bit about balancing being in a rock band with being a rock photographer, the Richmond scene, and defending the architectural quality of his favorite building in Richmond. The band rocked the Negative Fun Day Party at Legends later that week.
Next, Michaela has a special report on the new voting registration laws taking effect soon in North Carolina. If you’re not sure whether or not it affects you, have a listen.
Nick Savage and the EOT crew bring you another edition of “Eye on the Triangle,” live each Tuesday at 7 p.m. on WKNC 88.1 FM and wknc.org/listen and available as a downloadable podcast.
The background behind Father/Daughter Records is literally all in the name of the company; a father and daughter who joined forces to contribute to the greater good that is the music industry.
Being out of San Francisco, what brought Father/Daughter Records to the Hopscotch Music Festival is their signed bands that played at the festival this year: Mutual Benefit (Played at Vintage 21) & Gems (Played at CAM).
Jessie (the daughter in Father/Daughter Records) was nice enough to sit down with us for a little bit to give us some insight as to what she does and how she really appreciates what the Raleigh/Triangle is doing for the music scene.
