THIS WEEK ON WXYC

Join the Feedback Farmers on a journey Sixty-Five Million Years Ago, to a time when Dinosaurs ruled the earth. Listen in awe to the spectacle of these beasts, whether they are engaged in their daily inter-species battles, calmly feeding upon a hard-to-reach plant, or desperately fleeing the wrath of a meteor. Wednesday at Nine PM.

Hear a live performance by Futurebirds, a music group all the way from Athens, Georgia, on a special mid-week airing of The Backyard Barbecue this Thursday at 7pm. On Sunday at 8pm, the Barbecue is back with a live set from Carrboro indie songwriter Ryan Gustafson (Boxbomb), who plays the Local 506 June 24th with Max Indian.

Celebrate the 20th birthday Chapel Hill-based Merge Records by tuning in to this week's Thursday Night Feature! Founded in 1989 by members of Superchunk as a way to release their own recordings, Merge is now home to many of indie rock's heavyweights, including Dinosaur Jr. and Arcade Fire. Hosted by Alex C, this Thursday at 9pm.

Tune in this Friday at 9pm to hear psych-folk artist Theo Angell's latest album, "Tenebrae" played in it's entirety on The Inside Track.

This week's Orange County Special, an exploration of traditional and neo-traditional music from around the world, will be hosted by Heather W. Sunday at 10am.
