The 2nd Annual Harlan Xmas Special - Today!

Here's the offical word from WEVL:

The Second Annual Harlan T. Bobo WEVL Christmas Special
Tuesday, December 20th at 5:00 PM (CST)

Harlan T. Bobo returns this Tuesday for his second annual WEVL Christmas show.

Playing with him will be Memphis Symphony Orchestra members Jonathan Kirkscey on cello (back from last year) and Jessica Munson on violin.

Harlan's CD "Too Much Love" has been a WEVL favorite since we played one of the first handmade copies early last year. It earned him the Memphis Flyer's choice for Best Memphis Record of the Last 5 Years, and inclusion on many more "Best Of" lists, like About.com 's Top 10 Indie Favorites of 2005.

Don't miss this special live performance by one of our very favorite Memphis artists.

Tune to FM 89.9 or go here to listen online, then click on "Listen Live."
