Some great new music broke on this week’s show – including the first single from Rob Drabkin‘s upcoming 2nd full length due out in June … and a debut by Durango resident Thom Chacon that features Bob Dylan’s legendary rhythm section. Also shared this week, another cut from the new Paper Bird album, “Rooms.”
In News & Notes, April is Public Radio Music Month. Please text, msg, email, call your local public radio station and thank them for supporting Colorado Music. Two major Colorado music events to post about … FoCoMX on April 19 and 20 … and the Upper Colfax Root 40 Music Festival and Expo, April 22-28. I’ve been invited to speak on two panels during those events, on April 20, and April 22.
I did not come across a new video this week. I have been, however, enamored of SHEL’s re-imagination of the Led Zepplin classic “Battle of Evermore” … and happened on a video of the girls performing it about two years ago …
