Greetings WIXY Family, We hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the summer months in ways maybe we haven't had to in our lifetimes.  As we all adjust to a new (hopefully not lengthy) normal, we have all had time to perhaps tackle those lingering home projects, clean out cabinets, organize the sock drawer, and maybe even practice your tech skills to learn the many different ways to tune into WIXY1260Online.  As we all sit wondering what will happen next, we continue to hope for the best and try to get on with life as we best know how...keeping contact with loved ones, making new memories and re-living those great ones of the WIXY golden era. STUDIO SHOWS STATUS Earlier this year we had to hunker down during the first lock-down from COVID and we all learned some valuable lessons on how to handle this and prepare ourselves should the need, God forbid, ever arise again.  After putting some of our DJs on hiatus while others worked remotely, we eventually welcomed back our...

Greetings WIXY Family, We hope everyone is doing well and finding healthy ways to cope with the unprecedented situation facing us.  We're finding that many of you, and many new folks, are tuning into WIXY1260Online as a coping mechanism.  So, the toilet paper may be in short supply, but the best music ever recorded can always be found in plenty supply!  Thanks to everyone who has been tuning in and sending in those song requests - we always want to play what YOU want to hear.   STUDIO SHOWS TO RESUME It's been a little over a month now that our Live Show lineup went into "survival" mode, or as our morning DJ, Jeff Strich, likes to call it, "DJs without borders."  A big thanks to our DJs for stepping up to work remotely to keep our live shows going as we put the studio into lockdown mode.  I am happy to report that, while this was a resounding success, we will be returning to the Studio on Friday, May 8th at 7:00 PM ET with Tony Z & T...

All, The past few weeks, and for unknown how many weeks to come, have brought a lot of stress and uncertainty to the nation and the world. This epidemic, regardless of whether you consider it to be serious or media-hype (I am stuck somewhere in between), has made everyone re-think a lot of things and alter our lives in ways we thought unimaginable. Despite so much talent and dedication from all of our Staff, these times have forced us to make some necessary temporary adjustments to the way we operate. This coming week we are rolling out a temporary live-show lineup which maintains live shows during our typically peak listening hours. We have several DJs who have demonstrated remote capability and the schedule flexibility to make this work. Our normal studio operations have been suspended so that our DJs can work in a safe environment. This reflects a hard decision to act responsibly to limit everyone’s exposure and to yet maintain a personable presence with our audience. During...
