Roots Rock Rebel

10pm-12am, CKUT, 90.3 FM, Montreal!
Hello radio massive!
Welcome to another weekly podcast of Roots Rock Rebel. We have a huge and unique podcast to bring you this week. In the first hour of the program, we got on the phone with Dani and Jay from the Soul Radics down in Nashville, Tennessee! If you haven’t heard of the Soul Radics yet, make sure you check them out! They just released their debut full-length album called “Down to the Hall” on Jump Up Records, which you can get on vinyl, CD, and iTunes. From their own Facebook page:
“Soul Radics hit the scene with blistering traditional sounds and gritty soul melodies. Virtually fearless, it’s an original take on ska, reggae, and rocksteady with powerful female vocals and heavy, hardhitting rhythms.”
In the second hour of the show, we were joined live in studio by Bad Uncle, straight from the gritty streets of Montreal! Bad Uncle are a hard band to define. Aspects of the band are operatic metal, some are more klezmer-tinged, perhaps polka-billy, but definitely with a punk-rock edge. They are launching a rock opera in Montreal this Saturday, and shared some great songs live with us. Make sure you check them out!
Besides that, we also inserted an anti-war reggae set to mark the 10 year anniversary of the American invasion and war on Iraq. Fuck the war! And many other great ska and punk rock tunes ensued.
Be sure to tune in to the program next week for an interview with The Frightnrs from NYC!
Until next week, stay rude, and stay rebel!
