Artist: Kyle Andrews

Local Lightning Spotlight: Naked in New York

Album: Real Blasty

Aired Date: 9/15/08

Description: "You could call Kyle Andrews a singer/songwriter and you’d be right on a technicality. He’s more of a bedroom pop madman, a home-recording, hook-generating dynamo with enough personality to win over
fans of everyone from Beck and Eels to John Vanderslice and Chad VanGaalen. "

Artist: How I Became the Bomb

Local Lightning Spotlight: Killing Machine

Album: Let's Go!

Aired Date: 6/5/08

Description:
How I Became The Bomb. Not a declaration of ones social stature. Nor is it propaganda. Defined, instead, as a not-entirely-indie pop assembly of sophisticated keyboards, frantic, sometimes disjointed shards of guitars, and robotic vocoders phantom-powered by insatiable melodies and dance party drum beats. And, of course, a live show that cannot - and will not - be ignored.

Album:Angel on One Side.....& The

Description: Harrison Hudson is comprised of three guys who create melody driven rock. They blend the sounds of the east coast; from southern twang, to New York dirt and everything in between. They are based out of Nashville, TN. A city which is re-defining it's title of "Music City USA" to truly encompass all types of music. Harrison Hudson are proud to say they are part of the revolution going on in the Music City.

Artist: Gabe Vitek & The Ivory

Local Lightning Spotlight: Bourbon Street

Album: Gabe Vitek & The Ivory

Aired Date: 9/17/08

Description:
Gabe Vitek and the Ivory bring an advanced style of pop/jazz fusion to the Indie rock scene. From a business standpoint, the key idea for the Ivory is commercial versatility - on and off the stage. Live, the band can share the bill with a wide range of musical genres and fit in perfectly, providing for more booking options than most bands. Listeners can detect influences ranging from the modern jazz of Jamie Cullum to the experimental rock sounds of Radiohead, and will be delighted to find that the Ivory sound can be comfortably shuffled in with cds from some of today's most popular artists such as John Mayer, Dave Matthews Band, Coldplay, and Damien Rice.
