Local Lixx is back on WOXY.com. I'm happy to be re-starting a Cincinnati tradition here at WOXY.com with my first episode of Local Lixx. I think we got off to a great start with this episode too. We kicked things off with The Great Depression, a band out of Cincinnati that has recently signed to Curb Appeal Records and is out on the road with Rocky Votolato. We also touched on some new young talent here in Cincinnati with music from The Read and All The Day Holiday.

And we turned over a new leaf in some ways as well, branching out to both Columbus and Louisville for some great independent music. So enjoy episode 1 of Local Lixx and get ready for lots more to come!
