Celebrate Women’s History Month With WERS

WERS celebrates all the women who make the music industry run, and we are here to recognize them in our Women’s History Month Playlist!

Each day in March, we’ll salute a woman artist by playing 8 of her essential songs. Starting at 8 weekdays and noon weekends.

Pick of the Week: Mumford & Sons “Banjo Song”
