THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ATTENDED THE WFMU RECORD FAIR!
It was a smashing success at the Brooklyn Expo Center this past weekend, with tons of dealers, attendees, and live sets from The Moles, Colleen Green, RL Boyce, Fat White Family and James Chance! See you next year April 28-30 at the same place!

UPCOMING SPECIALS ON WFMU:
Beverly
Friday, May 6th, 3pm - 6pm
on
Sophisticated Boom Boom with Sheila B.
On Friday May 6th, Brooklyn-based duo Beverly will be the first band ever to play live on Sophisticated Boom Boom! Fronted by vocalist and guitarist, Drew Citron, the two-piece have been hammering out single after single of melody-drenched, hooked-filled dream-rock that makes ‘em impossible to resist. They will be celebrating the release of their sophomore album “The Blue Swell” on Kanine Records with a live set and Q&A.

Peter Wolf
Saturday, May 7th, 3pm - 6pm
on
Todd-o-phonic Todd's show
The original Woofa Goofa himself...none other than Peter Wolf joins Todd-O-Phonic Todd to talk about his amazing career. Hear stories about his days as a fast-talking loudmouth DJ as part of WBCN's "American Revolution", his first band The Hallucinations backing John Lee Hooker, the details behind the J. Geils Band "Morning After" cover and his new Concord album "A Cure For Loneliness". Be sure and catch Peter at The Bowery Ballroom on Friday May 6th and at The Egg in Albany on Friday May 13th.

Osei Korankye's Ghana Seperewa Highlife
Saturday, May 7th, 6pm - 9pm
on Transpacific Sound Paradise with Rob Weisberg

Osei Korankye is the captivating flag bearer of Ghana’s seperewa tradition. The seperewa is an ancient harp-lute, played by the Akan people of Ghana. It's a bit like a smaller version of the better known Mande kora. Osei's spreading the gospel of the seperewa with a great new album on the Awkaaba label. But it's extremely rare to hear this music live in the US, so we're thrilled that Osei Korankye and friends will join us live in the studio right before his NYC concert debut at Rockwood Music Hall later the same evening (Saturday May 7th)!

Jesse Jarnow, host of The Frow Show and author of "Heads: A Biography of Psychedelic America"
Sunday, May 8th, 6am - 9am
on
Burn It Down! with Nate K.
Nate the K. doesn't take his trips on LSD, isn't inclined toward the hippie lifestyle, and really doesn't like the Grateful Dead. Jesse Jarnow wrote an excellent new book called Heads: A Biography of Psychedelic America about those three topics and much, much more. Nate loved the book and couldn't put it down. Jesse dropped by Burn It Down! to talk about Heads, play some acid rock records, and maybe, just maybe, convince Nate that the Dead aren't so bad. Topics will include the Deadhead/NYC-graffiti connection, tripping to Unsane and "Death Valley 69," and whether it helps to be high for that whole "Space" thing.

Anthony Pasquarosa
Monday, May 9th, 3am - 6am
on
The Avant Ghetto with Jeff Conklin
On this week’s edition of The Avant Ghetto, Jeff Conklin hosts an exclusive studio session with Western Massachusetts’ Anthony Pasquarosa on 6 & 12-string guitar and banjo. A leading light in the fertile modern American Primitive scene, Pasquarosa has released records via Feeding Tube Records and VDSQ. Pasquarosa’s exclusive live set for WFMU features unreleased music, including a piece from the artist’s upcoming soundtrack to an imaginary spaghetti western.

Youth Code
Monday, May 9th, 8pm - 9pm
on
Infinite Distortion
The two (married) members of Los Angeles's Youth Code, Ryan George and Sara Taylor, showed up to the WFMU studios wearing Youth Of Today and Deathpile t-shirts respectively. Their sound reflects this blend of personal politics, heavy electronics, and anthemic songwriting. It's all set to the relentless drum machine beat of YC's take on the pop-inflected industrial sound of acts like Nine Inch Nails and Skinny Puppy. They blew the roof off studio B, so don't be a dweeb and miss them live and in conversation on Infinite Distortion.

Kreng (Cooties / Camino OSTs)
Tuesday, May 10th, 7pm - 8pm
on Morricone Island with Devon E. Levins

Belgian composer and actor Kreng (aka Pepijn Caudron) joins Morricone Island to discuss his second feature length film score for "Camino" directed by Josh C. Waller, his follow up to horror comedy "Cooties" starring Elijah Wood and Rain Wilson and released digitally by Milan and on vinyl by Death Waltz. Before recently turning to film, Kreng was primarily a sample-based composer scoring over 60 theater productions, many for Belgian surrealist horror theater company Abattoir Fermé with numerous releases on Norway's Miasmah Records (now based in Berlin). The "Camino" soundtrack is available digitally by Lakeshore and on vinyl by Invada.

Peter Sando of Gandalf
Tuesday, May 10th, 9pm - Midnight
on Irene Trudel's show

At the end of the Psychedelic Sixties, the band Gandalf recorded an album for Capitol Records, which was released after they broke up and became a rare collectable LP. Peter Sando wrote their song "Can You Travel in the Dark Alone," which became a favorite of WNEW-FM's Alison Steele, "The Nightbird." Flash forward to current times, and Sando is still writing dreamy songs as a solo artist. Peter's third album "Let There Be Love" was released at the end of 2015. Peter Sando visits Irene's show to play live and chat about his musical past.

Chris Farlowe
Thursday, May 12th, Noon - 3pm
on

Be sure and catch Peach and her ace combo on tour throughout the month of May including a stop at Palisades in Brooklyn on Friday May 13th.

David Lee Myers
Friday, May 20th, 6am - 9am
on

Footings
Tuesday, May 24th, 9pm - Midnight
on Irene Trudel's show

Peterborough, New Hampshire's Eric Gagne is a longtime fixture of the town's music scene, having been a member of Redwing Blackbird and Death to Tyrants. Footings is Gagne's latest band effort, a simple setting of guitar, viola, drums and vocals, filled with narratives and reflections on everyday life. Eric is also a founder of "The Thing in the Spring," an arts festival held annually throughout the town of Peterborough which focuses on indie, punk, folk, ambient, and other musical genres. Footings played live for Irene on a recent trip to NYC.

Laura Gibson
Tuesday, May 31st, 9pm - Midnight
on Irene Trudel's show

After a four-year gap, singer/songwriter Laura Gibson has released "Empire Builder," an album inspired by two major life events. Her main inspiration was the Amtrak train route she took while moving from Oregon to New York. Then after moving to NYC, Gibson lost all her possessions in the East Village building explosion in March of 2015. Laura's music has a simplicity that is emotionally dark and uplifting at the same time. As she describes the resulting album, "The title (Empire Builder) seemed appropriate because it captures a moment right in the middle of a big personal change." Laura Gibson drops by WFMU to play live.

Moondog Centennial Celebration
Wednesday, June 1st, 3pm - 6pm
on
Irwin Chusid
Moondog was blind, dressed in ancient Viking regalia, slept on 6th Avenue in New York during the 1950s, and was a musical genius. He was born Louis Thomas Hardin, in Marysville, Kansas, 100 years ago May 26. His biographer, Robert Scotto, visits Irwin's program to celebrate the Moondog centennial for three hours on June 1. The show will feature recordings from the 1950s to the 1990s, reflecting the strange sounds and exotic beauty of one of the most underappreciated American composers of the 20th century. Moondog recorded with animals, self-made instruments, and tugboat horns; composed percussion pieces, chamber music, and works for 25 saxophones. Scotto is the author of The Viking of Sixth Avenue, the only full-length chronicle of Moondog. This is his fifth visit to Irwin's program.
