Trala-Lala Radio Hour Recap – Episode #2

The Trala-Lala Radio Hour is our newest show, hosted by Ben, Jeff and Jocie of The Low Anthem. We’ll let Ben give you the background:

Long before Low Anthem, Jeff and I used to DJ the graveyard shift on WBRU (Providence, RI). So, starting on January 31, we’re going to be doing a weekly program on WOXY. It’ll be fun to revisit. We’re calling it Trala-Lala Radio Hour and here’s the idea: we’re going to tape our shows from the tour van or wherever we may trala-lalabe traveling. Every week will feature a different theme based on God knows what and we’ll have “in studio” performances from guest artists if we can find any musicians who are cool enough to record live in a Ford Econoline…

Randy Newman – Sail Away
Neil Young – Alabama
Pearls Before Swine – Uncle John

Lounge Act Recap – Love Collector

lovecollector1

Love Collector are a four piece punk band from Austin, Texas. Chances are, most people outside of Austin had not heard of them until recently when Matador Records co-founder Gerard Cosloy put together the Casual Victim Pile compilation. The album is a collection of 19 artists that Gerard really feels captures the vibe of the current Austin music scene and gave him an opportunity to highlight some of his favorites.

Love Collector have not released a full album yet, but among the new songs you hear in this session is “First 48″, the song that was chosen to appear on the Casual Victim Pile record.

Love Collector – My Baby Goes Wahhhh! (WOXY Lounge Act)

by:Larm 2010 Festival Preview

It’s February and that means it’s time for another by:Larm festival in cold but beautiful Oslo, Norway. Wait, you have never heard of the by:Larm fest? And yes, I said Norway, as in Scandinavia. Well, we here at the Future Of Rock N’ Roll are always trying to bring you the best of whats next, and sometimes, we travel far and bylarm2010wide to bring it to you. That’s why next week, Joe will be traveling all the way to Oslo, Norway, along with Larry from Future Sounds to bring you coverage from this years by:Larm festival.

The event itself has been taking place since 1998 in Norway, finally taking permanent residence in the capitol city of Oslo in 2008. It’s a music festival by night and a conference by day, so you might say it’s a smaller, colder, Scandinavian version of SXSW, or at least it has a comparable format, minus the day parties of course. The lineup for the festival is a great batch of interesting bands, although we know most of them you won’t be familiar with, at least not yet. So to get you more acclimated, here are the bands we are most excited about seeing next week in Norway along with some of their music for you to sample.

Seabear – This 7-piece band hails from Iceland and is getting ready to release their second album, We Built A Fire, in March on the Morr label. What started out as the lo-fi solo project of Icelandic singer/multi-instrumentalist Sindri Már Sigfússon’s (aka Sin Fang Bous) has now morphed into a full on indie pop celebration. In addition to playing by:Larm, Seabear will be making their US touring debut this year during SXSW.

MP3Seabear – Lion Face Boy

Oh No Ono – Quickly becoming a WOXY favorite already, Oh No Ono are one of Denmarks most promising art-pop bands. Under The Radar magazine had this to say about the band.

“The second album by this Danish five-piece is the first to be released in the U.S., and it’s about time. Oh No Ono creates fantastical, experimental pop that knows no boundaries.”

Oh No Ono’s second album, the first to be released in the US, is out now from Friendly Fire Recordings.

MP3Oh No Ono – Helplessly Young

Serena-Maneesh – Probably the most well known act on the bill, at least to us here in the States, has got to be Serena-Maneesh. After the success of their debut album in 2006, we haven’t heard much from the band, but the timing could not be better for this showcase in their home city because Serena-Maneesh have a brand new album on the way titled No. 2 : Abyss in B Minor due out March 22nd on 4AD Records.

MP3Serena-Maneesh – Ayisha Abyss

Lounge Act Recap – Follow That Bird!

followthatbird1
Follow That Bird! began as an instrumental duo when Lauren Green and Tiffanie Lanmon were still in high school. The band evolved into a trio, vocals were added, and the current lineup took shape when Mitchell Tellstrom took over bass duties last year.

They’ve quickly become one of our favorite bands in Austin and their 10″ EP on Monofonus Press last fall earned a fair amount of airplay here at the station.

Now, they’ve got the lead track on Matador’s Casual Victim Pile: Austin 2010 compilation and are at least looking in the direction of a full-length album.

In this performance you’ll hear a few brand new tracks, a tune from their debut EP, one from the Monofonus Press 10″, and their recently released song, as featured on the Casual Victim Pile release, called “The Ghosts That Wake You.”
