UPCOMING SPECIALS ON WFMU
Gwenifer Raymond 
Saturday, June 30th, 6am - 9am 
on 
Shrunken Planet with Jeffrey Davison 
Early in 2017, listener Simon from the U.K. told me about a young guitar-and-banjo player living in Brighton. Following his lead, I found a small number of tracks online, including some videos of her busking. I was simply astonished not only at her level of musicianship but with the intensity of her playing. I told fellow guitar-lover Josh Rosenthal of Tompkins Square Records about her, which led to her signing with the label and to her first American gigs, in April of this year. While she was in the New York area for a gig at Wonders of Nature, she made time to stop by the WFMU studios for a live session. Her debut LP, "You Were Never Much Of A Dancer, will be released on June 29th by Tompkins Square. 


Matt Clark fills in for Todd and brings in special guest- The Hall Monitors! 
Saturday, June 30th, 3pm - 6pm 
on 
What's Happening?!?! with Matt Clarke 
Washington D.C.'s premier garage outfit The Hall Monitors will be rock 'n rolling the Live Room. The long delayed and anticipated debut LP has finally been issued on Hidden Volume Records, so we are considering this a record release bash of sorts! They are also playing at Diviera Drive in Brooklyn later that night. Make sure to bring your hall pass and tune in at 3PM! 


Jon Madof of Chant Records: An Adventurous New Artist-Run Indie Label 
Saturday, June 30th, 6pm - 9pm 
on Transpacific Sound Paradise with Rob Weisberg 

Jon Madof and Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz are two brilliant musicians who've made big waves while steering utterly clear of the mainstream. They've played together in various edgy / experimental / improvisational bands. And now they've launched a label together: Chant Records is a label whose aim - in Jon and Shanir's words - is to "create a sonic temple for adventurous music". Chant Records releases run the gamut from rootsy stuff like klezmer to not-so-rootsy things like experimental doom metal! Jon Madof joins us this week to introduce us to some of the music on this exciting new label.

Garbeque 2018: Live BBQ Broadcast from the WFMU Parking Lot 
Wednesday, July 4th, Noon - 3pm

The show formally known as Garbage Time (filling in for Ken) and Duane Train will be broadcasting live from the WFMU parking lot the 2nd annual 4th of July Garbeque.

Elephant Micah 
Wednesday, July 4th, 7pm - 8pm 
on Irene Trudel's show 

Since the year 2000, Indiana-based Elephant Micah has been swirling traditional Appalachian-style folk slowly around with complementary atmospherics. Elephant Micah is mainly Joseph O’Connell, crafting these languid, moody tunes. On "Genericana," the new album coming out in August, Joe uses the themes of genealogy, genre, generic brands (and perhaps a bottled genie), to point to a different theory of what binds our culture together. To help fans keep up with O'Connell's sporadic output, Elephant Micah offers a $5. annual subscription through Bandcamp. For this WFMU session Elephant Micah is Joe joined by brother Matt, recorded during a recent tour through the NY area. 


Midnight Matinee: Daffy Ducko 
Saturday, July 7th, Midnight - 3am 
on Inflatable Squirrel Carcass with Rich Hazelton 

John Schnall's occasional radio show Midnight Matinee presents Daffy Ducko, in which a sleepwalking duck is haunted by a mysterious and wascally wabbit, and end-of-the-world hilarity ensues. 


Sam Newsome 
Friday, July 13th, Noon - 3pm 
on 
Miniature Minotaurs with Kurt Gottschalk 
Saxophonist Sam Newsome has crafted an absolutely breath-taking style by combining his own virtuosic skills with a mastery of extended instrumental techniques to bring his horn into unreal, yet in-the-pocket, realms. With chimes and percussion attached to his horn and an abiding love for Ellington and Monk, Newsome has truly created a new take on the jazz tradition. Hear the glory on at noon on July 13, when Newsome stops by the Miniature Minotaurs show. 


Bastille Day Special with guests Juniore, Calypso Valois, and April March 
Friday, July 13th, 3pm - 6pm 
on 
Sophisticated Boom Boom with Sheila B. 
France’s music scene is booming! Not since the heydeys of 60s yé-yé and 80s synth-pop has France churned out so much outstanding (and very sophisticated!) pop music. Parisian yé-yé noir girl group, Juniore and French-pop royalty Calypso Valois are at the center of this buzzing French-pop scene and will be on deck to kick off Sophisticated Boom Boom’s Bastille Day celebrations. Juniore will be playing songs off their new mini-album, Magnifique—soon to be released stateside by California’s Burger Records. And musician, animator, and French pop connoisseur April March will be joining Sheila B. to interview Calypso Valois, daughter of 80s electro-duo Elli & Jacno, actress, and musician, who released her debut album, Cannibale, last year. Both ladies will be selecting their female-fronted favorites. Plus the best of French pop from the 50s through today! 


The Bakersfield Breakers Live In The Studio! 
Saturday, July 14th, 11am - 1pm 
on Michael Shelley's show 

Michael welcomes instrumental trio The Bakersfield Breakers for a live set of twang/surf/country inspired instrumentals! The band’s mission is to reawaken the classic guitar-driven sound of 1950’s Bakersfield and the driving tunes of 1960’s surf rock. 


Pearl Charles 
Saturday, July 14th, 3pm - 6pm 
on 
Todd-o-phonic Todd's show 
Pitchfork says of Pearl Charles' debut album Sleepless Dreamer: "Charles' record takes cues from movements all over the American map. There are hints of Southern folk and alt-country, Midwest Americana, and West Coast acid rock." Pearl manages to coalesce these and other influences into something wholly original that will be on full display with a live set on the Todd-O-Phonic Todd show. Catch her live at Baby's All Right on July 20th. 


Reigning Sound 
Saturday, July 21st, 3pm - 6pm 
on 
Todd-o-phonic Todd's show 
Reigning Sound has been cranking out the hits for most of this century! The one permanent member has been Greg Cartwright, also known for being in such other stellar combos as The Oblivians and The Compulsive Gambers. The current line-up features Greg and New York's own Jay Vons, as perfect a combination as you are ever likely to find. Check out Reigning Sound's soulful rock'n'roll live with Todd-O-Phonic Todd on July 21st and don't miss them at Monty Hall on July 20th and Elsewhere as part of Jonathan Toubin's Soul Clap on the evening of July 21st. 


Naughty Clouds 
Monday, July 23rd, Noon - 3pm 
on Three Chord Monte with Joe Belock 

Naughty Clouds is a vigorous music duo that includes Alexis Moon and Ray Kubian. They like to sing songs and beat on things in this Brooklyn/New Jersey meeting of the minds. They'll be performing songs from their debut album, "Everything's Hard." 


Thatcher Keats guest hosts on Vocal Fry 
Monday, July 23rd, 7pm - 8pm 
on 
Vocal Fry with Dan Bodah 

Mark R. guest hosts on Weekly World Blues 
Tuesday, July 24th, 8pm - 9pm 
on 
Weekly World Blues with Matt Fiveash 

Wet Ink violinist Josh Modney 
Friday, July 27th, Noon - 3pm 
on 
Miniature Minotaurs with Kurt Gottschalk 
Violinist Josh Modney is a fixture of the New York new music scene. He's a member of Wet Ink and the International Contemporary Ensemble and played with the Mivos Quartet for eight years. He's releasing his first solo album, a sprawling three-cd set with compositions by Anthony Braxton, Sam Pluta and Kate Soper, plus some old guy called Bach. He'll be stopping by to play live, preview the CD and chat a bit on Miniature Minotaurs, July 27 at noon. 


Cut Worms 
Saturday, July 28th, 3pm - 6pm 
on 
Todd-o-phonic Todd's show 
Cut Worms are a vehicle for the stunning songwriting of Max Clarke. A Cut Worms song may impress an innocent summer stroll across fields of tall grass and lavender but there's undoubtedly a severed ear out in there in the grass. Some unseen dark forces are always lurking at the edges of songs' sunbursts. Bright, beautiful lap steel or a cheery harmonica accompaniment often belie an impending doom or crestfallen narrator. Cut Worms debut album on Jagjaguwar, Hollow Ground, will no doubt appear on many Best Of 2018 lists. Max has previously appeared solo on Todd's show, but for this set he will be joined by the full orchestra. 


John Noreen of The Rose Garden 
Saturday, August 4th, 11am - 1pm 
on Michael Shelley's show 

Michael chats with John Noreen about his time in The Rose Garden, who while John was still a teen went from rehearsing in his L.A. bedroom to being signed to ATCO Records. Along the way the band crossed paths with Neil Young, Gene Clark, Sonny Bono and other characters tangential to the swinging L.A. scene. Described as a melding of The Byrds and The Mama's and the Papa's, they were short lived, but long remembered, mostly for their 1967 single “Last Plane To London,” a #17 hit. 


Live Remote From Union Pool featuring: The Jay Vons, Miriam and Nobody's Babies and PMS and The Mood Swings. 
Saturday, August 4th, 3pm - 6pm 
on 
Todd-o-phonic Todd's show 
Once again The Todd-O-Phonic Todd program presents an installment of Union Pool's formidable Summer Thunder Series of free afternoon shows. This year's guest host will be the redoubtable Amanda Nazario! Live music will be provided by the brilliant trifecta of The Jay Vons, Miriam and Nobody's Babies and PMS and The Mood Swings. 
The Jay Vons kick the afternoon off with their groovy soulful winners. Miriam and Nobody's Babies have firmly established themselves as WFMU favorites and actually feature on-air personalities such as Matt Clark, Ira Kaplan and Matt Fiveash in the band. To date they have released two albums on Norton of wonderfully evocative girl group and folk rock sounds fronted by The Ashtabula Nightingale, Miriam Linna. 
PMS and The Mood Swings are celebrating the release of their debut album on Burger Records, one of the best summer listens in years! Songs like "Lifeguard Steve" and "Coney Island Baby" are made for the season! Don't miss these suave pop confections live and in person at Union Pool! 


Brett Berns director of "BANG! The Bert Berns Story" 
Saturday, August 18th, 11am - 1pm 
on Michael Shelley's show 

Michael welcomes Brett Berns, director of "BANG! The Bert Berns Story" which tells the story of the creative force Bert Berns, whose childhood bout with rheumatic fever left him with a short life expectancy which inspired his prolific creative output. His mort successful run was a seven year period in the 60's where he had a hand in 51 charting singles. He died in 1967 at age 38 and left behind a safe full of cash and a musical legacy that includes "A Little Bit Of Soap," "Hang On Sloopy," "I Want Candy," "Under The Boardwalk" and work with Solomon Burke, Van Morrison, Erma Franklin, The Isley Brothers, Wilson Pickett, Ben E. King and tons more.
