Jesca Hoop Review on NHPR

Hi Kids. New Hampshire Public Radio is in the process of putting together a cool new show called Word Of Mouth.

Here's the description from their website:

"Word of Mouth is all about what's new. It's both a radio show and a blog, and together they take the latest ideas and trends from every aspect of our culture and put them under a microscope. WoM covers everything from healthcare and the environment, to technology and the internet, to books, movies, music and TV."

Right now it is alive via a blog site which you can check out here.

Last week they invited me to chat with the host Virginia Prescott about the new Jesca Hoop CD, Kismet. You can listen to the review here. It was cool fun, and I am hoping to do it again. Virginia is great, and I think it's going to be a great show. It will be live weekdays at 2 p.m.

As always, thanks for checking in. See you Saturday.

Radiohead's "In Rainbows" This Week

This week we feature the newest from Radiohead - In Rainbows - on Saturday Morning. When the band decided to offer this album as a download from their web site in the fall of 2007, and allow fans to name their price for the CD, it took the record and music industry by surprise...and by storm. Along with some of their fellow musicians, Radiohead is participating in - and leading - a not so quiet revolution in the music world.

In Rainbows is filled with the kind of invention and experimentation Radiohead fans have come to expect and long for. Innovation is the name of the game, and In Rainbows doesnt' disappoint.

The record's official commercial release date was just a couple of weeks ago, and now, finally, it time for us to check it out. We'll play through the entire album over the course of the show. As usual, we'll mix in new releases from a range of emerging and established artists. Please join me...Saturday Morning.

Saturday Morning - 8 - 10 am - WVEW - FM 107.7/WVEW.org - Brattleboro, Vermont

Happy New Year!
