Filming began in June 2014 with an interview of musician David Bromberg . Many musicians were interested in being part of the film . In addition to musicians loving the music played on the station , WHFS either broke or helped break artists like Little Feat , Cyndi Lauper , NRBQ , and even played songs from Bruce Springsteen ’ s Greetings From Asbury Park album on the day it was released . Some of the artists interviewed include Roger McGuinn , Nils Lofgren ,

Bruce Cockburn , Marshall Crenshaw , and members of the band Little Feat . Most of the musicians they approached instantly remembered the station . Those who didn ’ t remember WHFS still remembered how special the free form radio format was and wanted to be on board as well . Schlossberg said , “ They were able to talk about what it was like to go in and be welcomed like a long lost brother or sister and play some songs on the air .”
