Every Friday night, from the stage of the historic Rex Theater in the City of Galax, WBRF FM sends out 100,000 watts of live old time and bluegrass music into five states and around the globe via the internet. The show is called Blue Ridge Backroads Live and thanks to a faithful group of volunteers, it has become the cornerstone for the revitalization of this 70-year-old theater.
Owned and operated by the City of Galax, The Rex continues to expand its offerings with vintage movie nights, Saturday concerts and community plays. The Rex is also available for special events and many non-profit groups have found it's a great venue for community oriented fundraising.
Historically important and a designated landmark on the Crooked Road, The Rex remains the jewel in the crown of the City of Galax.
