From indie rock to underground hip-hop, punk, and deep house, WRGW hosts are not just DJs but tastemakers and curators of sonic experiences.

We also partner with several venues around D.C. to provide our station members with ticket giveaways and opportunities for concert coverage. Some of our partners include:
