your tuesday afternoon alternative Live Live Live, New Music, Radio Show, Your Tuesday Afternoon Alternative

ImageWe continue all summer long with great new, indie, and local music. Join Dr. J for hour one from 3-4pm when we will be featuring Luke Frazier, Mikal Cronin, Koala Fires, Junip, The Story Changes, and much more! Brand new music from Guided by Voices — yeah, we know that is not too surprising! — except that we also have new music from Iggy and the Stooges! Got your attention now?!

Mrs. Dr. J will bring her radio sophistication from 4-6pm and we will kick things up a notch or three! We have many new songs to bring your way and we are very excited. Now, we can’t go through them all here because that would be telling, right? And sometimes the best reveal is as it is happening!

Tomorrow we will unveil the choice for the on-air book review so you will have plenty of time to read the book so you can participate!

So tomorrow from 3 to 6pm, your Tuesday takes an alternative path with music, concert information, and a few surprising announcements! Tune in it will be fun. We promise.  And you can trust us because the show goes all summer long without a break!  Isn’t that nice? We promise to be there for you every Tuesday. Image

This Tuesday we will be playing three hours of independent, local, and Dayton music for you! Our theme this week is remembrance. We will be exploring how music can create powerful memories, build connections between strangers, and why a song can all too easily transport you back to a moment in time.

We will be chatting with our friends Jeff Rudolf of Sam at Eleven and Tom Gilliam of The Rebel Set about the Cancer Benefit both bands played a few weeks back!

Expect music from Blank Tapes, Wild Nothing, The Rotaries, Apple Tree, Camera Obscura, Underground Lovers, The Men, Baby Bee, The Lost Patrol, Guided by Voices, Luke Frazier, Foals, Still Corners, and many more. Dr. J will also be playing demo of a classic song from The Replacements.

We are working on our next music book discussion — what book about music have you read recently that you would recommend for our next music book conversation? We will be putting up a poll on which book we should discuss. This is important — you, the listener and music lover can decide what book about bands, music, a music scene we should discuss! So, let us know and we will see you on Tuesday on WUDR!Image

On-Air Book Discussion

your tuesday afternoon alternative On-Air Book Discussion , ,

ImageWhat books about music do you recommend for our next book conversation? Past books we have discussed have included ‘Record Collecting for Girls’ by Courtney E. Smith, ‘Guided by Voices: A Brief History: Twenty-One Years of Hunting Accidents in the Forests of Rock and Roll’, ‘Waging Heavy Peace’ by Neil Young, and ‘Petal Pusher’ by Laurie Lindeen of Zuzu’s Petals. All terrific books by and about musicians.  What book would you recommend to Dr. and Mrs. J to read and then discuss on Your Tuesday Afternoon Alternative in a few weeks?

Come on… we need the suggestions folks!  We will then read and review the book on-air.  You can join the conversation.  Won’t that be fun!

Debut this week from Two Trees!

Two Trees – ‘Your Woods’

We will also have the North American debut of Swedish Folk duo Two Trees – ‘Your Woods’ on Tuesday’s Show!  This amazing song is reminiscent of some of the fine music that Richard and Linda Thompson created.  The lovely swirl of voices from Charlotta Frostenson and Fride Hanburger will take you to a place of beauty.  You can listen to their music on their bandcamp page — and we highly recommend that you check them out on Tuesday around 4pm when we will be playing ‘Your Woods’!  You can connect with Fride on twitter at @FrideHamburger and Charlotta on twitter at @LoFrostenson or for the band on twitter at @twotreesmusic.
