Roots Rock Rebel
Wednesday, September 26, 2012
10pm-12am, CKUT, 90.3 FM, Montreal!

Hello radio massive,
Welcome back to another weekly serving of the Roots Rock Rebel podcast! On the show this week, we continue our preview coverage of the 4th annual Montreal Ska Festival, going down in our fair city from October 11-14. Our special guest on the program this week was Roy Radics, vocalist of the long-standing NYC ska group The Rudie Crew! The band will be playing the first Canadian gig ever at the Mtl ska festival this fall. Radics, originally from Tottenham, England, spoke to us about his UK roots in ska and dancehall, the history of the band, and The Rudie Crew’s most recent album “This is Skragga!”. Check this band out!

We’ve been discovering some great punk releases lately, both new and old stuff, from bands like The Horny Bitches, Chin Chin, and Propagandhi, all stuff you can find on this week’s podcast. Plus a huge helping of ska, reggae, and soul!

Next week on the program, we’re pleased to announce the return to the CKUT studio of The Planet Smashers frontman Matt Collyer! The Planet Smashers really need no introduction. They’ll be headlining the Montreal Ska Festival this year to a hometown crowd, and we are excited as hell about that. So make sure you tune in for the interview!

And stay tuned in coming weeks for interviews with Obi Fernandez, Propagandhi, Hold a Grudge, Victor Rice, and more!<
Until next week, stay rude, and stay rebel!
