Having my own record label, POST/POP Records, means that I have extra incentive to find the best new music for my show. Getting to play new music on the radio is like a dry run, a test, to see if a song sounds good to played to an audience. If it sounds good blaring out of the studio speakers, it will most likely sound good to you guys at home. It’s this method I used to gauge how much I liked the first song I played today. “Breaking Up My Bones” by Vinyl Theatre. Within moments of playing this song, I was tweeting (always my first method of contacting a band) Vinyl Theatre, asking them if they were cool with my releasing something for them. They are based on Minneapolis and they are fantastic, and with this in mind, they said YES! So On June 16th I am releasing the very EP (Chromatic EP) that this song comes from.
I don’t just want to PLAY new music, I want to LIVE it! Anyway, I played some other new music too…
