Radio

Last week, the nationally syndicated NPR show "Here and Now" aired a great interview with Justin.  He talks about the inspirations for a lot of the material on Harlem River Blues, his move from Nashville to NYC, and they play several tracks.

In case ye missed it, it's archived HERE. Have a listen....

During the tour of the Pacific Northwest, Deadstring Brothers stopped by one of our favorite radio stations KEXP and recorded a live set—didn't catch it when it aired? No problem—you can listen to it here.

This show is archived here.

The Blacks will appear TOMORROW (April 28th) on Chicago's local arts/news show 848.  It will air at 9 am Central time.   Listen to 91.5 WBEZ tomorrow in the Chicagoland (as you will likely be sitting in traffic somewhere....) or online HERE.

Maybe they will let the band takeover.  Maybe the band will take it over anyway.  Maybe they will be polite and answer the questions thoughtfully.  Maybe they will grab the mic and scream out the studio window that they're mad as hell and they're not gonna take it anymore a la Peter Finch in Network.

Who knows?  That's what makes the Blacks so much fun

Check out Justin on the nationally syndicated PRI/NPR radio show BOB EDWARDS WEEKEND this coming weekend (Feb 27-28)

Taking a break from their busy tour schedule (the boys will be on the road from now til into the summer), Ha Ha Tonka stopped by Chicago's online radio station, Fearless Radio, for an hour-long chat that included a couple of live songs and lots of obscure Presidential trivia. Listen to the podcast here.

Rosie's new album Girl of the Century broke into the top 20 on the national AMA charts coming in at #18.

Sure, it's a dead medium, but there are still some stations out there that care.

Justin Townes Earle will be featured on The Bob Edwards Show this week, airing from 8-9 AM EST on Wednesday 12/9 and then replay on Thursday 12/10 from 9-10 PM EST on SIRIUS Satellite Radio – Channel #196.

Tune in and listen to that smooth smooth Bob voice....

The Bottle Rockets session at SIRIUS Satellite Radio will be airing tomorrow (11/3) at 9 pm ET and Thursday (11/5) at 11 pm ET on Channel #63 – Outlaw Country.

Take a listen.  Mark (the drummer) called us and told us it was one of the best interviews they've ever done.

Join host Jon Langford on WXRT's Eclectic Company radio show for a couple hours of amusing anecdotes, new Bloodshot releases, and favorites from the record collections of the misguided lunatics who started this label.  Yes, that's right, turn your radio dial to STUN as co-founders Rob Miller and Nan Warshaw provide INVALUABLE insight on the inner workings of this beehive.  They also shamlessly promote the huge STREET FAIR at the Hideout for the label's 15th anniversary on September 12th.   Airs on September 8th, from 10 pm to midnight central time.

Tune in, it's BOUND to be better than the other choices on the dial: some old guy yelling at you about death panels, or some less older guy playing Pink Floyd album sides, or some drowsy college DJ playing obscure Belgian jazz CDs.

Paul Burch is appearing on the legendary Nashville powerhouse station WSM, home of the Grand Ol' Opry!.  He's appearing with his WPA Ballclub from 6 to 7 pm on Thursday, August 13th!  If you can't pick up the station (650 AM, friends, but ANY musci fan worth their salt knows that by heart), listen online here.
