About Asheville Aftershow

Asheville Aftershow is an independent online magazine for Asheville and Western North Carolina, made like the best part of any show: the hangout afterward. Every day we line up the stories the mountains are talking about, the breweries and biscuits worth the wait, the gigs and galleries from downtown to the River Arts District, the trails and waterfalls of the Blue Ridge, and the local legends keeping Asheville wonderfully itself. We also keep a free Set List of the radio stations broadcasting around the mountains.

Asheville Aftershow is a reading site. It is not a TV show, a TV channel or a radio station, and nothing here is broadcast. We borrow the fun of a late-night aftershow and the look of a good gig poster, and our Set List is a free guide to the stations that are actually on the air.

Where tonight’s stories come from

We pull headlines from a licensed news API (Mediastack) along with Google News and Bing News, and Asheville and mountain newsrooms always get top billing. Tap a headline and it opens on the newsroom that reported it, so the full story is one click away.

The Green Room

The Green Room is where businesses and organizations share their announcements with us, posted as supplied and always labelled Press Release.

Asheville Aftershow is independent and has no connection to any station on the Set List, or to any TV program, venue or festival.
