Show #173 – Happy New Year from Nick, Bootsy, Accidental Influence and Madora!

What a great way to kick of 2014 – with Accidental Influence and Madora – both LIVE in the station!

All the way from Toronto – It’s the 24th Street Wailers on the phone with Nick & Bootsy!

“The 24th Street Wailers are a band that break all the rules. Lindsay Beaver is a firehaired gut bucket singer/drummer who fronts the band, who at first glance are anything but the norm. Emily Burgess on lead guitar may appear to be shy however her playing is both thoughtful and explosive. Saxophonist Jon Wong is a second generation Chinese Canadian who is a modern day version of a 50’s Rock n’ Roller. Rounding out the group is Lindsay’s Husband Michael Archer, a country boy at heart that turns his Harmony bass into a sound so big you’ll feel it in your soul. They truly are one of the most original and exciting bands on the scene today, the quartet quickly developed their tight grooves, unadulterated live show, and original repertoire in the three years they have been together. With their 2010 debut album Dirty Little Young’uns reaching #3 (CAN) and #8 (US) on the Roots Music Report and a smashing sophomore CD in 2012 titled Unshakeable, the band is gaining widespread national and international radio play.”
