Today on your bFM Breakfast: Another moody morning, with a big weather line-up from Rick Breeze, phew; another round of Search & Destroy!, with a side of chocolate cake; Hannah comes in to talk about the ol' 1YA building, bit of CBD history for ya morning; Sam talks iZombie, a series that needs more hype; and Dr. Julie Hope and Victoria Brownlee come in to talk about Volunteer Impact Week. Oh and Rachel needs another coffee, nice.
Plenty of variety on the show this week, starts off with some oldies, JJ Cale, Michelle Shocked & Dwight Yoakam. Then into The Hacks, White Owl Red and Sleepy Eyes Nelson. Some interesting quite sleazy blues from Israel with Noya Sol, the fantastically dark and lonely Doc Feldman and The LD50 and a cool band called Late Night TV. Went for a rummage through station vinyl and found a Lone Justice LP and a Jason & The Scorchers EP - and unfortunately played them. Some parts of the '80's have not travelled well in this genre! Meanwhile back in the present century, locals Kendal Ellise & Emily Fairlight. A pretty groovy outing in spanish with Gatomajodo. Some Old '97's, Johnny Miles and The Kilometres , Slow Motion Cowboys then back into the station vinyl for The Triffids(!), live recordings of Marlon, Townes and Social Distirtion before returning to the station vinyl which redeemed itself with the very interesting Warumpi Band from Northern Territory Australia. There's more too of course.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Rachel's feeling bright and sprightly this Monday morning; Penelope Noir talks berets, fashion and history this week; Matthew and Tom join Rachel to talk about Strange Things; Jenna's talking about Handmaid's Tale and more importantly, The Farm; and Natural Ange is here with some tea suggestions to help you stress less. And lucky for you, Monday's are for exciting announcements, yay.
With The Others Way creeping up we had a listen to some of The Chills set at Laneway 2017 to get in the mood. This paied nicely with Vayne (also on The Others Way lineup) coming up for My Morning Mixtape. Both of these plus a ton of new favourites including songs from Shigeto, Jenny Hval & JPEGMAFIA.
