Annual Indie Holiday on Your Tuesday Afternoon Alternative
It is that time yet again… in fact, this marks our Fifth Indie Holiday program on Your Tuesday Afternoon Alternative! Join us as we welcome Tom Gilliam of Ghost Town Silence and Vivienne Machi and Dave New of Babbling April in the studio as we listen to indie holiday music. Chances are you may hear some live holiday music from our guests!
We are joined by family and friends as we play several indie bands and musicians who wish to celebrate the holidays. As always we are also expecting some very exciting live performances of some indie and classic holiday songs.
So grab some coco and free up some time from the wrapping of presents and come along with our audio sleigh ride of independent holiday music from 3-6pm on Tuesday December 15th on wudr.udayton.edu!
Excited for a show filled with new music!
Such an amazing time for new music in the Gem City that we can barely contain ourselves – it all feels like an incredible dream!
We simply could not be more excited about the show tomorrow… premiers from so many great bands that we keep pinching ourselves because we just have to be dreaming, right?
We will be playing a great new songs from Dayton’s own Moira – ‘Midwestern Waste’ off of the Asleep/Repeat/Awake EP which you can download tomorrow night after our show because they are giving it away as a free download on their Bandcamp page moirabandofficial.bandcamp.com! If you have not seen one of their recent concert – trust us, you want this song and you want it badly! Oh yeah.
One of our favorite Dayon bands Me & Mountains have new stuff for all of us. ‘Gold’ is from their yet untitled upcoming fourth record recorded with Micah Carli at Popside Recording Studios. The band is several songs into their recording with Carli and based on this track alone – the future looks good for Me & Mountains and your ears!
We are also fortunate to have a track from Good Luck Year‘s Tinder for the Fire EP with ‘Temporary’ which they will release during their set at Dayton’s Music Art and Film Fest!
And not to mention the guys in The New Old-Fashioned have their sophomore record, Low Down Dirty Summer Nights headed our way on September 26th! You can go see these Midwestern barn burners at Gilly’s in Dayton, Ohio on the 26th and pick up a copy of this fine record! The band has captured the intensity of their live sound without sacrificing the harmonies and soul that make them a band not to be missed!
That is enough reason to listen right there music lovers! Solid music craft is alive and well!
We will also discuss the upcoming Dayton Music Art and Film Festival slated for September 18th and 19th as well as playing new music from many diverse and exciting bands such as The Bottle Rockets, Line & Circle, COLD BEAT, Sink Tapes, Wilco, La Luz, The Wheel Workers, Bad Bad Hats, Sea Of Bees,Grenades!?, McGuff and the Dumpster Fires, The Apache Relay, and The Fratellis to name a few of the bands with new tunes that we will spin for your listening pleasure!
Of course, what is a Tuesday without some cool interpretations of past music? We have an amazing cover from Robyn Hitchcock and a surprisingly atmospheric lo-fi 80s cover from Tashaki Miyaki! Where else would you get all of this indie musical goodness?
Join Dr. J from 3-6pm on wudr.udayton.edu! Remember you can always call in requests to 937-229-2774 too! See ya!

This is very worth your attention!
The Wooden Sky
“American Girl” (Tom Petty Cover) Live Video
Premiered w/ The Bluegrass Situation
Lets Be Ready LP Streaming Exclusively w/ KCRW
+ Out Tomorrow via Nevado Music
“While echoing bands like My Morning Jacket and The War on Drugs, they clearly take their own words to heart, anchoring the songs with familiar, comforting folk rock tropes, while making an ever-increasingly confident stand for their own signatures: spacious rockers, dynamic emotional perspectives and Gardiner’s bittersweet, but earnest vocals” – KCRW
“On their upcoming album, Let’s Be Ready, the Wooden Sky rocks their roots in a big way with steely riffs and rumbling rhythms underneath often anthemic melodies.” – The Bluegrass Situation
” …atmospheric, War on Drugs like guitars and a swirling atmosphere that feels more influenced by mood music like M83 than the roots of yore”– The Wild Honey Pie
Upcoming Tour Dates

Did Robin Thicke steal ‘Blurred Lines’ from Marvin Gaye?
One of the best analyses of this issue that we have seen.
[edit: update 12 March 2015]
The case has now been resolved, and the jury found in the Gayes’ favour, despite the copying not being exact and the musical elements dissimilar, as my original February 2014 post (below) argues. In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Richard Busch, the Gaye family lawyer, describes how the Thicke side’s hubris and inconsistency contributed to the jury verdict going against them – but insists that the case was successful because of the characteristics of the music itself. For those who have said that this sets a dangerous precedent for creators (including me – see this MTV news interview), this may be so in terms of discouraging musical homage in arrangements. But in (US) legal terms, a jury ruling is different from a court ruling, so each case is judged on its merits and on the specific evidence presented. Therefore this settlement does not represent ‘case law’ (as attorney

This year’s nominees are (mostly) wack!-Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame 2015
Brilliant!
Joan Jett and the Blackhearts – Here starts the “one hit wonder” phase for the hall.
“Hey dude-Joan Jett rocked and she was hot-I know she had another song after I love Rock and Roll – I just can’t think of it –hang on let me google this.”
If that is the typical reaction- I ask you – Hall worthy? – I think not.
Bill Withers – at least his “one” hit was so good that I almost don’t have to list it. Ain’t no Sunshine is something else –but again –I have to google to find something else.
Before you say that I am not a dedicated music fan because I don’t know the catalog of these important artists — really —- seriously —- Music fans are crazy and subjective —but find me one – just one— that had either of these “classic-serious-music-stars” tattooed on them anywhere…
