The music is excellently curated for each show and is a great resource for the community! ### 5/5 — A sound for everyone *2024-09-21, version 1.1* Variety, variety,variety. This station has something for everyone. Listen once and you’ll be hooked. The website and app are easy to navigate to find music that is right for you. ### 5/5 — Great listener supported indie and alternative radio station! *2024-08-20, version 1.1* Glad to have stumbled upon WTSQ over 8 years ago during business travel. Glad they also have an OTA option. Great programming whether for commutes, news with Democracy Now followed up by Maya in the Morning with a great mix of music. You really can’t go wrong listening to the team at WTSQ. ### 5/5 — Stellar Radio Station *2023-12-12, version 1.1* I honestly can’t give them a high enough rating. The commentary, wonderful range, and variety of musical finds create a one of a kind experience. It’s very grounding in a way that’s hard to explain, the hosts talk in a way that makes the listener feel as if they’re in on a joke, just fantastically humanizing. ### 5/5 — Life was dull before WTSQ *2023-09-18, version 1.1* So- before WTSQ Not much to listen to on the radio. NPR is great to, but sometimes I just want interesting good music. WTSQ started up and thankfully is still going as there is so much good music out there- some I know and love and some I hear for the first time. Beyond happy- if you are not yet a sustainer- join in the fun! ### 5/5 — Good Station *2022-05-01, version 1.0* I live in Michigan born and raised in West Virginia. Just found this station good variety of music . Like the format . ### 5/5 — The tailgate show is great! *2021-12-19, version 1.0* It’s very informative, the hosts have a great rapport with one another and I like the variety of topics they cover. ### 5/5 — Best app in the history of apps *2021-12-11, version 1.0* No doubt ### 5/5 — Best station for a mix of everything good *2020-08-28, version 1.0* Most stations that offer a large range of music is gone or previously bought by a Christian network. Not this station! Local to Charleston WV it not only is ran by locals but it also supports and represents itself in several different community events. Never can go wrong with the app or radio station. Let the music keep rolling and will always be a big fan of Heart Smiles and the others shows! ### 5/5 — Lovin’ it in Oakland *2020-08-13, version 1.0* WTSQ is what radio should be. It’s great music played by people who are passionate about music. ## Frequently asked questions about WTSQ ### What kind of music does this app play?
