Listen to the first episode of The Connie Club

Adam Weiner, from Low Cut Connie, hosts "The Connie Club" a radio show from a dirty, divey little local bar where everyone is welcome...the air conditioning is broken, the food is terrible, but the music is slamming and there's always a party going on.

The Connie Club is a dirty, divey little local bar where everyone is welcome. The air conditioning is broken, the food is terrible, but the music is slamming and there's always a party going on. People from all walks of life get together while Low Cut Connie frontman Adam Weiner spins Saturday night music of various genres and eras, plays his junky piano (named Shondra), and interviews both local heroes and celebrity guests.
