FIREHOUSE SESSION: Tre. Charles

FIREHOUSE SESSION: Minot

On October 1st, 2025, Minot came through the Firehouse and played a some songs for us. The Missoula, Montana band leans into a lo-fi, pop-tinged garage punk sound—scrappy, catchy, and very DIY.  Check out these songs and get ready to rock!

FIREHOUSE SESSION: Palmyra

On September 29, 2025, we had Virginia-based Americana/Folk Rock trio Palmyra in the studio for a Firehouse Session—and it was a really good one. The conversation felt easy and genuine, and the band sounded great in the room. Unfortunately, we did run into some technical issues, so we weren’t able to keep the full session. But we did save one song—and honestly, it’s a great one. Not everything went as planned, but what we did get is something special. Enjoy Palmyra’s performance of their song “Arizona” ahead of their show at The Bishop.  Enjoy! Host: Abby Noroozi Producer: Abby Noroozi Session Engineers: Jared Coyle Post Production: Jared Coyle

FIREHOUSE SESSION: Daniel Villarreal

We took the Firehouse on the road for this one. Chicago drummer and composer Daniel Villarreal joined us live from The Orbit Room on September 10th, 2025 during our Fall Fund Drive. Hosted by Adriane Pontecorvo in front of a room full of WFHB volunteers, the whole thing felt really special. A good one to revisit ahead of our upcoming Spring Fund Drive — a reminder of what makes community radio so essential.

FIREHOUSE SESSION: Ione

We welcomed Chicago-based Ione into the WFHB studio for a Firehouse Session on February 25, 2026, ahead of her show that night at Orbit Room with The Knee-Hi’s. This marked the first Firehouse Session in our newly renovated studio — and it couldn’t have been a better way to break it in. The set was stripped down and beautiful, with Ione’s songwriting shining in an intimate, close-up setting. Paired with a fun, easygoing conversation with Ahmed, this was a perfect introduction to the space and a reminder of what makes these sessions so special.

FIREHOUSE SESSION: Tre. Charles

We rang in the new year with a WFHB Firehouse Session featuring Tre. Charles on January 29th! Hosted by our General Manager Jar Turner, this first session of the year took place in the air room while our main studio was under renovation. The close, pared-down setting gave the session an intimate feel, letting Tre. Charles’ songs and presence really come through. It was a beautiful session and a great way to kick off a new Firehouse Session season! (Video from No Guru Media coming!)
