YTAA Goes Age Nowhere

52005916_2078455642245954_4536899964810297344_nAllow us to set a scene for our upcoming show on Tuesday. Imagine stepping in for a drink at a bar where Sticky Fingers era Keith Richards is hanging out with his Nudie Cohen Suit wearing pal Graham Parsons and a world weary Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes. They are all sitting in a booth commenting on the passing musical fancies of the day.

That scene is the experience of Age Nowhere! Imagine a true double guitar attack from Identical-twin brothers Matt and Dan Spaugy paired with smoky evocative lyrics sung by Paul Monin propelled by driving drums from Seth Gilliam and pounding bass of Matt Terry. That is the experience of Age Nowhere.The band takes it’s nom de plume from one of the standout tracks on Dayton’s own Shrug‘s 2005 record ‘Whole Hog For The Macho Jesus.’

Join us for conversation, music and the Age Nowhere experience online at the usual website wudr.udayton.edu on Tuesday, March 19th from 3-6pm!

Have a Happy New Year Everyone!

Due to the holiday today/tonight there will be no YTAA today. We will be back next year. Yeah, we know it was a lame joke. But we think that will not be the first lame joke today. We will be back Tuesday, January 7th with an all new show!  You can see that we are burning the midnight oil to get ready for the show in the new year… Alright, sorry about that joke/visual metaphor too.  Oh, and we have to go see Wussy tonight!  Remember to always support your local music scene!  See you all next Tuesday on WUDR.
