The program airs three times: Dec 24 at 4 p.m.; Jan. 1 at 11 a.m.; and Jan. 9 at 8 p.m.

FROGGY CAROLS

Local country bands are ringing in the season at Froggy (98.3 FM). At about 5:30 p.m. each weekday afternoon through Christmas eve, the bands play a holiday song live in the Froggy studio. North of Mason-Dixon, In the Saddle and Pure Country have already performed. The Povertyneck Hillbillies get the spotlight today. Monday it's Dallas Marks, Tuesday Ruff Creek, and Wednesday the Fabulous Gunslingers.
