Weekend Frequency Vol. 18 | River City Signals, Scene Builders, and Local Sleepers by The Sunroom

by | Jul 3, 2025 | MUSIC, WEEKEND PLAYLIST

Richmond gets it. More than any other city in Virginia. So here’s Weekend Frequency, a reader-curated playlist built for the city, by the city.

This week’s mix comes from the cinematic auteurs at The Sunroom, one of Richmond’s talented group of visual curators, production prodigies, and content creators.

“This 15-song playlist showcases artists we’ve filmed with here in Richmond. Each track tied to a music video produced by The Sunroom. If a song catches your ear, check out the video to see how we brought it to life visually.”

Weekend Frequency is part revival, part continuation of our long-running RVA Mag Weekend Playlists which started before the world flipped upside down. Dig into the full archive here.
