Juneteenth has been observed by communities since the 19th century to honor Freedom Day: June 19, 1865, the day when Major General Gordon Granger ordered the final enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation in Texas. A federal holiday since 2021, Juneteenth will be celebrated on our broadcast with an evening of music honoring the historical and ongoing effort for civil rights and to celebrate the Black American experience.

As we continue to celebrate 50 years of Sleepy Hollow on XPN’s weekend mornings, we wanted to take the opportunity to honor some of the artists who have played a major role in its sound since 1973.
