Tonight’s local music radio show on WBKM 107.1FM in the Champlain Valley, also streaming at our website, will go as follows:
Song before: Soul Eternal – Anderson Ponty Band
intro
From our small city to the great big world, these are the sounds of Burlington. It’s been a beautiful week in Burlington, but something unusual happened late Monday night. A meteor with a blue trail sailed over Vermont and could be seen all around New England. Let’s begin with a brand new song that speaks of meteors.
1.) Oysters – Jane Boxall Percussion with Miriam Bernardo 2.) All The Same To You – Milton Busker 3.) Spirit Won’t Fall Down – Rachel Brown 4.) Sharktopus – Villanelles
That’s a cool new song from Villanelles cool new album Blue Heart Attack. Spirit is a song from Burlington’s ’90’s and I still remember seeing Rachel and how powerful her voice is. Great song from Milton who is at Light Club Lamp shop tonight at 8pm. Jane just put out a new album called Field Notes. Miriam’s voice just makes that song. OK, it’s time for the next song on Callisto.
5.) Look Ahead – Alpenglow 6.) Too Much – Slingshot Dakota 7.) Hallelujah – Dirty Blondes 8.) Counting On A Ghost – Elephants of Scotland
That’s a brand new song from the brand new Elephants album The Perfect Map. I had a great time seeing the Blondes at Nectar’s on Monday and while listening, I knew I wanted to play that one for you. Great new song from Slingshot. Their new album Break is still keeping me listening to it. Great new song from Alpenglow. This next band are at Light Club Lamp Shop tomorrow.
9.) Edible – SWALE 10.) Falling In And Out Of Sleep – Envy 11.) Finder – Madelines 12.) Nowhere Feels Like Home – Fire The Cannons
Cannons filled a rock void in the early 200’s and played some killer shows. Finder is a classic from the ’90’s. Sean Toohey and Ann Mindell from Envy are playing in their new band The Nancy Druids at Radio Bean on Friday at 10pm. I really enjoyed seeing this next band a little over a week ago at The Monkey House
13.) Killing Ghosts – Better Things 14.) Say It – Anachronist 15.) Speed Car – Torpedo Rodeo 16.) Paranoid – Surf Sabbath
SS are really The High Breaks when they play Sabbath covers. They did such a great job rearranging the songs into a surf style. I saw Torpedo a few times in the early 00’s and always had a rocking time. I love Say It!! Better should have lots of cool new music coming soon. OK, let’s go back to the ’80’s. Put on your dancing shoes and get ready to go.
17.) Hold Me Tight – The Decentz 18.) Melt – Chin Ho 19.) East Jabib – REDadmiral 20.) The Summer Of Andy – Cancer Conspiracy
CC played some great music back in the ’90’s. That’s a pretty new song from Admiral. They are playing Sunday at Radio Bean. I played Chin Ho’s cover as an homage to the ’80’s Ladies who have the show before me on Thursday nights at 7pm on WBKM. That song from the Decentz always gets me moving. A former local musician and music writer who has been working at the Future Of Music Coalition, Casey Merlin Rae, has just moved on to a job with SiriusXM. Congratulations. Here is one of his solo songs.
21.) Purpose And Object – The Contrarian 22.) Another Life Ago – The Cush 23.) Before The Evenings Thru – THE VACANT LOTS
The lots used to play around in the early 10’s but are now touring the US and touring the world. Great song from the Cush’s first album. They played that song many times in Burlington. Yea Casey! This next song is pretty new and catchy as can be.
24.) The Feeling Is Strange – Binger 25.) Random Earth – Elephants Of Scotland 26.) For Buddy – Elephants Of Scotland
Those are the two last songs on Elephant’s new album The Perfect Map. I hope you enjoyed checking out the music of our town. Let’s do it again next week, shall we?
outro
Songs after: Where In The World – Fish 13th Star – Fish New Americana – Halsey She’ll Come Back For You Tomorrow – The Church Band
