RMG186 - Party Edition - Part 2

Welcome to the 86th edition of Radio MacGuys. This is Part 2 of our winter holiday party and features some of our favorite tunes by independent artists we discovered year.

The set starts off with a high energy tune by the very lovely and talented Circe Link. The tune is called "I like knowing that you miss me."

"It only hurts" is a sweet song by Jaimee Harris who performs with her papa, Chris Harris and other friends under the name, "Better off Dad". They're cute as speckled puppies on green grass, and musically, they rock.

"There will be a brighter day" was by The Bee's Knees, a very dynamic American band from Worcester, MA.

Christa Couture is simply amazing. Her voice is like liquid honey. She lives in Vancouver British Columbia, which we understand is like Seattle, only cool. Like all the artists we've featured in this edition, Christa, as the musicians say, "plays out". If you're cool enough and lucky enough to live in BC, you need to hear this woman sing.

The set ends with a cut by a song writer that you will never hear in a live concert. Don Grooms died too young in 1998 but left an amazing body of work. In this cut, recorded live at the Florida Folk Festival, Don talks about those absolute beliefs which seem to get so many of us in trouble. The cut comes from the excellent Florida Memory project at the Florida State Archives. You can find photographic tribute to Don Grooms here.

Y'all take care of yourself and each other. Radio MacGuys will be back with it's normal content before the first of next year. Peace on earth to those of good will.

RMG185 - Party Edition

Welcome to the 85th edition of Radio MacGuys. This is the Holiday Party edition

Dave will be back shortly with his usual words of wisdom and drivel, but this edition of Radio MacGuys is blissfully short. It's followed by RMG186, a best-of edition consisting of our favorite music from the artists we played in the first 85 shows.

December 20th marked the shortest day of the year, the winter solstice, a time to reflect on our place in the universe and to celebrate the wonder of creation. No matter what your religion, philosophy, political affiliation or home planet, my wish for you is to have as much fun as you can, share your toys with the other kids, clean up after yourself, and leave the planet nicer than you found it.

You can find information on the artists and music on RMG186 by looking at the show notes for that feed at http://www.radiomacguys.com.

I live uphill from a beautiful swamp. I try and balance living in the tree shade with being a gardener. I play night frisbee, and ride strange looking bicycles.
