CKUT’s Roots Rock Rebel – Wednesday, January 25, 2012
10pm-12am, CKUT, 90.3FM, Montreal!
Hello radio rebels!
Welcome back to another weekly digital dose of Roots Rock Rebel, the only radio show on the planet combining the mighty power of bagels, anarchy, and reggae!
Our special guest on the program this week was Mike Sarason, the lead singer and saxophonist from the Pinstripes, a great ska-reggae band from Cincinnati, Ohio. They have a new album coming out in early February called “I”, and we had a chance to chat with Mike about the new album, as well as their recent kickstarter campaign, which allowed the band to self-finance and produce the new material. Check out the Pinstripes and get your hands on “I”, because it is definitely sounding like one of the hottest albums of the year:
Also on the program this week, we heard brand new stuff from Prince Perry, 1-Stop Experience, Chris Murray, and more! Plus we paid tribute to the late legendary reggae producer Winston Riley, who sadly died in Jamaica on January 19th. Riley was the producer of the infamous “Stalag” riddim, and helped launch the carreers of Sister Nancy, Buju Banton, Cutty Ranks, and so many others. Rest in peace!
Until next week, stay rude, and stay rebel!
