WFUV (90.7 FM/wfuv.org) will be broadcasting live for the first time from Clearwater's Great Hudson River Revival at Croton Point Park in Croton-on-Hudson, NY, on both Saturday, June 21 and Sunday, June 22.

WFUV will be on-site broadcasting live from 2-9 p.m. on Saturday and 12-8:30 p.m. on Sunday. Virtually the entire WFUV air staff will be on hand to introduce the artists onstage, share backstage interviews and observations, and meet fans at the FUV booth.

The Saturday lineup includes (in order):

Dar Williams
Delhi 2 Dublin
Rufus Wainwright
Richard Thompson
The Mavericks

The Sunday lineup includes (in order):

Lake Street Dive
Josh Ritter
David Bromberg Big Band

"Clearwater has become one of the top music festivals in the country, and we're very lucky to have it in such a beautiful spot in our backyard," said WFUV program director Rita Houston. "These artists are some of our very favorites. And what a treat to present the broadcast premiere of Norah Jones' new project, Puss n Boots!"

WFUV's Clearwater broadcasts are supported by Fairway Market. Funding for WFUV's ongoing coverage of live concerts and festivals comes from The Agnes Varis Trust, supporting affordable access to the arts, education and healthcare.
