On the Radio

So, because they are unable to learn from their mistakes, tonight, Tuesday, June 13th of 2017, I’m returning as a guest on the Louisville-based ARTxFM show Mingle, hosted by Kevin Coultas.

The show runs from 6-8pm (EST) on WXOX 97.1 FM.

If your location happens to fall outside the station antenna’s range, then you can listen in via the internet.  Visit this station site page (LINK) to either listen via their embedded audio player or download one of their recommended apps.

And, remember, if you’re playing the custom ARTxFM Mingle drinking game… each time I mispronounce a musician’s name, you take a shot.  Double it if I also misidentify an album title, song title, or geographical location.  If I forget either Kevin’s or my own name, then it’s three shots.  Might be a good idea to be proactive and call in sick to work for Wednesday right now.

And speaking of artists… here’s a tentative playlist of songs being featured:

1.  A track by Charles Mingus (the musician whom Kevin always begins his show with)

2.  Bill Frisell – “Tales from the Far Side”  (more)

3.  Araxi Karnusian – “Interrupted”  (more)

4.  Gianluca Petrella – “The Comics”

5.  Amit Friedman – “Sunrise”  (more)

6.  Guillermo Klein – “Va Roman”  (more)

7.  Omer Avital – “Free Forever”  (more)

8.  Todd Sickafoose – “Tiny Resistors”  (more)

9.  Markus Pesonen – “A Day in the Life”  (more)

10.  Benjamin Koppel – “Quietness Before Departure”  (more)

11.  Klabbes Bank – “Led Mig Bort”  (more)

12.  Dwight Trible – “Black is the Colour of my True Love’s Hair”

13.  Kammerflimmer Kollektief – “Lichterloh”  (more)

14.  Anne Paceo – “Little Bouddha”  (more)

15.  Nils Berg Cinemascope – “We Are Nobody” (more)

16.  Jean Lapouge – “Des Enfants” (more)

17.  The Dreamers – “Akialoa” (more)

To learn more about any of the music on this list, just follow the More link.  It’ll lead you to some music to listen to and a synopsis and a link to where you can discover even more about the music.  Tonight’s focus is more of a Songs-Dave-Likes show rather than a focus on new releases.

And hopefully that’s enough music to fill up the two-hour show duration.  Otherwise, I’m gonna have to start singing Faith No More tunes to a live studio audience (aka Kevin Coultas, poor poor Kevin Coultas)

And here’s a link to the audio archive of the show, where you can listen to this show afterwards, as well as previous guest appearances or, mercifully, those shows where Kevin takes the reins solo.

UPDATE

And here’s the audio from tonight’s show, just in case you weren’t able to tune in live or, understandably, happen to be irredeemably addicted to the sound of my voice.

Thanks again to Kevin Coultas and ARTxFM for having me on and giving me the opportunity to share some fantastic music.

To learn more about any of the music on this list, just follow the More link.  It’ll lead you to some music to listen to and a synopsis and a link to where you can discover even more about the music.  In some instances, I wrote about the album in my monthly Best of Bandcamp Jazz recommenations column for The Bandcamp Daily.  The “more” link will take you to the portal to read them.

And hopefully that’s enough music to fill up the two-hour show duration.  Otherwise, I’m gonna have to start singing David Bowie tunes to a live studio audience (aka Kevin Coultas, poor poor Kevin Coultas)

And here’s a link to the audio archive of the show, where you can listen to this show afterwards, as well as previous guest appearances or, mercifully, those shows where Kevin takes the reins solo.

UPDATE

Here’s an audio embed of my radio appearance in case you weren’t able to tune in live or, perhaps, because you’re a sick puppy and have fallen in love with my voice and need to hear it again at all costs.  Note:  We did not run out of music to play, so if you were hoping to hear me sing David Bowie tunes, you’re going to be massively disappointed.  Perhaps next time.

The playlist is posted above.

Enjoy!  And seriously, thanks for listening. I really hope you find some cool new music.

Cheers.
