Each Wednesday evening in September at the Alamo Theatre in Bucksport, WERU Community Radio and Wednesday on Main will present a series of excellent music documentary films. This eclectic film series is all about music – how it began, who wrote it, who performed it, what it meant to us.

On Wednesday, September 27 at 6:30 p.m. we’ll screen Muscle Shoals, a documentary that celebrates Rick Hall, the founder of FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and the signature sound he developed in songs such as "I'll Take You There", "Brown Sugar", and "When a Man Loves a Woman.”
A donation of $8 is suggested. Read more »
