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.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Coffee, coffee, coffee, on Breakfast this sunny morning; Mike's making new Metal Memories; announcing a party after the 95bFM GOLD party; Kiran brings in a book about food; and Natural Ange cures all your queries. Nothing like a good kick of bFM to get you going for the day.
This week on Tuesday Morning Glory features new songs from Christoph El Truento, Wand & Wurld Series. We highlighted some live tracks from SWIDTs set at The Onehunga Community Centre back in June 2017. In the second hour we had a chat with Annabel from Miss June about what they've been up to and what they've got coming up including 95bFM GOLD.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Mikey reckons this mornings Breakfast will full you up with tunes; Fabian's talking Oscars and horror films from magical Hollywood; Dr. Kirsten Zemke is getting wavey on Travelling Tunes; and Johanna is living it up in Fringe Town with Hayley. A gloriously rainy morning.
