Hey, we are coming down to Champaign in the next month or so to play for a surf-a-billy radio show at U of I. We play Garage Rhythm n Blues and we'd love to try to set up a show in your parts. Any good venues or bands to play with? thanks.
I like bomp, norton, voodoo rhythm, etc. but mostly old gems from the 50s-70s.
I like anything Billy Childish-related, 70s power pop, raw rhythm and blues and garage.
I'm super lovin' The Two Tears, and The Blind Shake.
My most-prized 45 is Betty James - I'm a little mixed up.
I DJ modern and obscure 50s-60s-70s rockabilly, r&b, beat, psych, garage, trash, rock, punk, power pop, and am currently being influenced by an experimental-noise-loving significant other.
