UNC-TV to air feature on Merge Records tonight

Just because there are no events, last minute or otherwise, on the XX Merge calendar today doesn't mean there's an absence of celebration.

UNC-TV's nightly program North Carolina Now will air a feature on Merge Records tonight at 7:30 p.m. featuring interviews with Mac McCaughan, Laura Ballance, Wye Oak, David Menconi, Grayson Currin and WKNC DJ Kelly Reid.

Here's the blurb from the show's broadcast schedule:
David Huppert and videographer Pete Bell explore how a couple of college kids from the Triangle defied the odds and formed one of the most successful alternative rock bands and independent music labels in the world, Durham-based Merge Records.
In case you miss it, the segment is scheduled to hit the web tomorrow.
