Today we have one new band with all female members. The Beverleys – three ladies from Toronto. Jenny Don’t ails from Portland and fronts her punk rock band Don’t. We also introduce the new band for Chris Shaw from Ex Cult, Ty Segall and Charles Moothart from Fuzz called Goggs. The man that made my favorite record last year, Andy Gabbard visited Cleveland and played some new tunes. My field recorder was ready. We also introduce Cowboys from Bloomington IN and a Toronto supergroup Highest Orders. One of the most pleasant surprises this week is Leland Sundries from New York and their new record called Music For Outcasts. Senior Service is an instrumental band from UK. Prkos Drumski covers Fairport Convention by the camp fire and we check it out.
MBV ya all… The biggest buzz since the power went out at the Super Bowl is the return of My Bloody Valentine. Without much pomp, they released a new record simply called mbv, and it sound like time did not change anything in their dreamy ways. Another interesting return is for Endless Boogie, who are going to put out a new album by the end of February. In the same time, we are expecting the new record for Tim Lee 3, and we are previewing one song from each band and each new records. New names today are Livingstone Daisies from Melbourne, Australia and The Resonars from Arizona. I made mistake announcing the band in the show though – their name is not The Resonators, but The Resonars. Another new band today is Prkos Drumski from Novi Sad – another representative of the neo-acoustic scene in ex-Yugoslavia. Trixie Whitley is back with the new record and Eamon McGrath uncovered an unpretentious collection of demos that predate his legendary Young Canadians by a few months. There’s also an interesting moment where we play Hanging On The Telephone in three different language versions as a tribute to The Nerves.
