Today on your bFM Breakfast: Mike's bedridden, but Tess has you covered; Rod reckons the government is doing it a little different this time; special guests, Brent and Morgan have been walking heaaaps lately; and Troy joins Tess for a chat about tunes; glorious.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Is there really any other way to kick off Monday morning than coffee? Mikey and Tess don't think so; and of course, a Metal tune, I mean, that's surely going to wake you up; followed by Fashun tips for Summer, we're thinking hats...; and Jenna brings Eli in to give you the low down on what the kids are reading these days. Plus, as always, some glorious giveaways; why wouldn't you tune in?
In which Amelia attempts to communicate her perculiar emotion state, forgets entirely what a normal edition of this show is meant to sound like, and ends up performing a strange springtime seance in honour of the moon (off mic).
Had some fun with a show full of covers and standards. So you've got your classic In The Pines, Knoxville Girls, Oh Susanna's and Long Black Veils as well as Townes doing Bruce, Joe Strummer doing Bob Marley, Johnny Cash doing Soundgarden, Shovels and Rope doing the Ramones and a lady called Katy Melua doing The Cure's Just Like Heaven so beautifully that people were fizzing on the phone line. Tuck in and enjoy.
All over the place tonight with a blast from 1974 Rory Gallagher, brand spanking new Mary Elaine Jenkins and Sarah Shook and the Disarmers. Some outlaw country that might have actually been a bit shit, Marty Robbins, and some sadly beautiful Slaid Cleaves. Billy Bragg and Joe Henry because Billy's here this week, and a nudge to The Eastern and a couple from Reb Fountain just because those folks are national treasures.
Tina does a show on all the incredible gigs coming up this summer Tami Neilson/Mavis Staples, Dimmer & Straightjacket Fits, Anderson .Paak, Oddisee, Wondergarden (Nightmares on Wax, Ladi6, Julien Dyne, Anvantdale Bowling Club), PHAROS (Childish Gambino & ??!!!)
