Apparently rock legend Thor is unable to stay out of court — WRCT’s Court’s In Session that is! Eric Jackson Lurie filed this report about Thor’s upcoming appearance:
On Thursday, July 15, 2021, I am going to have heavy metal legend, Thor, the Godfather of Muscle Rock on WRCT’s Court’s in Session. Thor has a new album, Alliance, coming out on July 16, that includes rock and metal stars making guest appearances on nearly every track: from Chris Holmes of W.A.S.P.; to Ross the Boss of Manowar; to Al Harlow of Prism.
This will be Thor’s 39th album!
In addition, I will be playing the RADIO WORLD PREMIER of Thor’s new single on the show!
I’m pretty excited. Thor has a big fan base here in Pittsburgh and sold out his last and only show here. He’s a great guy and I’ve been a fan of his music since I was 15 – which was a long time ago! I’ve heard the entire album and its amongst the best he’s ever done.
So catch all the excitement Thursday, July 15th starting at 8:00 p.m. on 88.3 FM, Pittsburgh, or streaming from this very website.

Friday, May 21 at 4:00 p.m., WRCT is hosting a listening party for Joey Pecoraro’s brand new release “Old Time Radio“–on the very day it goes on sale world-wide! WRCT’s DJ Firefly describes the record as “jazzy downtempo with an old-timey radio feel.” Another reviewer described it as “a warm musical embrace with lush instrumentation and hazy lo-fi hues.”
Joey Pecoraro is a stunningly talented producer and pianist hailing from Michigan (with over 300 million streams!). Joey’s music has had heavy airplay at stations such as SiriusXM’s Alt Nation and Chill, England’s BBC1 & BBC6, KCRW (Los Angeles), and other stations and streams around the globe.
Even though some singles from Joey’s “Old Time Radio” have been individually released over the past month, the album as a whole is an experience meant to be heard from beginning to end.
Check out the total album experience (played from front to back) for Joey Pecoraro‘s “Old Time Radio” at 4:00 p.m. Friday, May 21 at 4:00 p.m. on 88.3 FM Pittsburgh or streaming from this very website!
