Bill Phillippe, Brad Vickers, Rev Freakchild, The Beat Daddy's and Damon Fowler
SHOW #297 – Live, Uncut & Uncensored Conversations with “Musicians You Should Know” Bill Phillippe sat with me back on March 30, 2015. He is working on a new album and on the Couch Kid New Music Segment we will talk about the fan-funding campaign Bill is running. Brad Vickers and the Vestapolitans have new music, and the album is called That’s What They Say and it is a collection of songs that explore the roots of the music even deeper than they have in the past, both in sound and in material. I’ll sit with Brad and talk about the making of the album and what has been going on in his life since his last visit in June 2013. Reverend Freakchild brings his own brand of irreverence to his music and on his latest release, Hillbilly Zen-Punk Blues, he brings it hard. Recorded in Williamsburg, Brooklyn Freakchild enlisted the talents of world famous musicians. He and I will discuss his journey and where the road is leading. The Beat Daddys formed in 1986 and have spent the last 30 years bringing their blend of roots music to audiences around the world. I’ll chat with Larry & Tommy about their partnership, making the IBC last year and much more as we check out tunes from their new album, Hoodoo That We Doo. Finally, Damon Fowler returns to Couch Kid New Music with his new album Live 2015. Can’t wait to chat with Damon again and find out all he has been up to since his last visit March of 2014. We’ll, of course, share some songs from the album.
