This episode, I have something really special. It’s a performance from the Show-me Blowout by the 60’s garage rocker Craig Moore. Craig Moore was one of the original members of the 1960’s band Gonn from Keokuk, [tag]Iowa. Now I don’t really expect you to have heard of Gonn because ...

The Alley Cat Revue at Rue 13 is on the vanguard of fine Burlesque entertainment in the Mid-west. I spoke to the lovely and talented Lola Van Ella about the history of the current state of the “neo-burlesque” movement.

Victoria is a band that seems to have come out of nowhere–well for me anyway. They’re still pretty new but they really rocked Off Broadway about a week ago.

You might know Doc Popular as a nerdcore rapper, or a lo-fi techno musician who plays on bent toy electronics, or maybe you bought one of his crafty blue jean wallets, or read one of his comics, or maybe you’ve seen him in a video or two right ...

I’ve been looking forward to this show for a while. I discovered this band several months ago and fell in love with their raw, bluesy, lo-fi sound. They’re a two-piece (piano/organ and drums) and their home base is in Louisville, Ky., but for the last six months they’ve been ...

Ok, I have another clip from the Southside Rock ‘n’ Roll Rave. This time, it’s a band called Bunnygrunt. They have a great power pop sound that’s pretty catchy. I also include here a clip of their performance with Bob Reuter playing one of his original songs. You ...
