Boston, MA – WXRV/92.5 The River, Boston’s Independent and solar-powered radio, is celebrating 15 years of Independent Radio with a special free concert featuring home town favorites Guster at Club Royale, located in Boston’s theatre district on Wednesday October 6th Presented by Redhook Ale Brewery.

Guster is an American alternative rock band that is known for its live performances, humor, and cult following. It was formed by Adam Gardner, Ryan Miller, and Brian Rosenworcel in 1991 while attending Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts. The members met during the freshmen Wilderness Orientation program in August 1991, playing publicly together as a trio two months later at the Midnight Cafe coffee house set in the common area of the Lewis Hall dormitory. While attending Tufts, the band lived at 139 College Avenue in Somerville, MA.
"What a joy it is to welcome Guster back for the River’s 15th birthday party. Guster are station and listener faves…..local heroes…and hugely representative of our audience’s eco-friendly sensibilities.", says 92.5 The River’s Program Director Catie Wilber. "and…they played our historic River Music Hall when they were still called Gus!"

The River is a station with SO much potential..but is hampered by a crackpot owner.
How many competent people have come to the River and left in frustration/disgust?
Too bad.
That’s too bad and very sad that you view the station in such a negative matter.....As a current employee that has been here for over 3 years, I have to say I'm not feeling any frustration or disgust but the complete opposite.
Thank you to everyone who supports independent radio, 92.5 the River!
