This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio # 1081

A Spongetone meets America's Sweetheart, and all is right with the world.

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl is honored to present the world premiere of "Why," the debut single by Stoeckel & Peña, uniting the pop talents of our friends Steve Stoeckel and Irene Peña. If we played even the smallest role in bringing these two together on record, then man, we have justified our claim to being The Best Three Hours Of Radio On The Whole Friggin' Planet.

Go forth, kids. Make us proud. This is what rock 'n' roll radio sounded like on a Sunday night in Syracuse this week.

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl airs Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse at SPARK! WSPJ 103.3 and 93.7 FM, and on the web at http://sparksyracuse.org/ You can read all about this show's long and weird history here: Boppin' The Whole Friggin' Planet (The History Of THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO).
