Nina Blackwood’s New Wave Nation is Fridays from 9:00 PM CT to 12:00 AM CT and spends three hours weekly spinning the best of the music that is now known as Alternative Gold or Classic Alternative.  Long before today’s alternative music arrived, a long list of artists loosely had their music categorized as “New Wave.”  These artists shaped the sound of clubs, campuses, record racks, and of course early alternative radio in the 1980’s and late 70’s.  Whether it’s British imports like Depeche Mode, The Clash and The Smiths, or domestic punk like Talking Heads and The Ramones, it’s all found in the weekend edition of New Wave Nation.  Exclusive interviews, cool features and, of course, Nina Blackwood, an icon of the era, all make this series extra special for everyone.
