Our Daily Show! W/CJ: May's Night Market, Jake Maurer, and More!

Kick off your Thursday with your daily dose of local stories and community events from across the Riverbend.

At 9:20 AM, we’re spotlighting May’s Night Market—a vibrant community gathering that brings together local makers, vendors, food, and entertainment. While each Night Market has its own unique flair, the event is known for showcasing small businesses, handmade goods, and live music, all in a family-friendly setting that encourages shopping local and supporting the region’s creative economy. We’ll learn more about what attendees can expect at this month’s market and why it’s become such a staple on the community calendar.

At 10:10 AM, country music fans are in for a treat as Jake Maurer joins us ahead of Rock the Block! Jake is known for his high-energy performances and connection with fans, and we’ll preview his upcoming set, talk about the energy he brings to the stage, and why Rock the Block is one of the most anticipated events of the season in Alton.
