Happy birthday to … Buzz Bands on Little Radio

4

littleradiologoThis week marks the three-year anniversary of the Buzz Bands show on Little Radio. If anybody in listenerland can tell me the name of the first song I played on my show on March 8, 2006, I will send you a three-CD gift pack (you’ll choose 3 from a list of 20 titles). E-mail guesses to buzzbands(at)gmail. Here’s a clue: The song is more than 8 minutes long. And I will start this week’s show (10 a.m. Friday) with that same song again – so if I am not e-mailed a correct guess, the first person to IM me after the song starts will be declared the winner. Talk to you at 10 bells …

Also in store this week: New music from, among others, Foreign Born, Cursive, Actionslacks, Hesta Prynn, Brakesbrakesbreaks, O+S, Crystal Antlers and the No. 1 band in Ireland … Bell X1. After the jump, last week’s playlist:
