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

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.

New Motel Beds video

your tuesday afternoon alternative Dayton Music, Motel Beds , , , , , , ,

One of Dayton’s saviors of rock and roll, our own Motel Beds keep getting attention for their ‘we are not afraid of guitar’ songs. Their video for the second song on their terrific new album, Dumb Gold is called “Valentimes”. Remember now and do not forget that the ‘Beds have made Dumb Gold available for a name your own price — that means it could be free but you really should cough up a few dollars! Great music for your music listening pleasure!

Once you hear a Motel Beds song, you cannot go back!

Major Major Major

your tuesday afternoon alternative New Music, We Love this! , , ,

Major Major Major

A fantastic new band out of Austin, Major Major Major has some great music available for download on their bandcamp page. We just played Polka Dots + Porcelain. How did we find out about Major Major Major? Why, from Justin at the Atlas and the Anchor! He links to lots of great music, so be sure to take a look.

We cannot get enough of The Decade Runners!

your tuesday afternoon alternative We Were Animals, Your Tuesday Afternoon Alternative , , ,

We just had to share a recent discovery that we have made… The Decade Runners is a band that you must check out!  You need to hear tThe Decade Runners - The Rideheir amazing song, The Ride… and once you do — you will simply be unable to live without it.  How often does that really happen in music anymore?  We do not mean some corporate piece of music that you are told to love because executives are counting on sales of units.  No, we mean a song that once you hear it… the music hits you stronger than a slap upside the head.  You hear the guitars, the bouncy bass line, and a steady drum cadence that leaves you no choice.  No choice whatsoever.  You get up, you dance, you smile and you just close your eyes and find yourself transported by the music. A great song can do that.  A great song should do that!

The Decade Runners are a guitar-focused rock band with a perfect, captivating sound that seems all the more impossible when you find out how crushingly young the band members are for playing such complex melodies.  They sound like a band that is much older — and we mean that in a good way, alright! — than simply measured in years. As stated in their bio, The Decade Runners “came about as a result of three of the members being in the same class at school.”  And in true, Tom Hanksian – That Thing You Do fashion, the band wins a competition and they understand that they have some special on their hands.  And we believe that after you hear The Ride, you will believe that too.
