Live performance by Michael Holt
  After playing slightly off-kilter pop for eight years with The Mommyheads, Michael Holt began focusing on his own songs, full of delicate, intricate melodies. Now, after a 10-year hiatus, The Mommyheads are now back together with Michael for a new album and tour. He joined Irene in the studio to play a few new tunes and chat about his songs and the Mommyheads reunion project.

Listener comments!

  Mon. 11/22/10 12:05pm Andrew:

Hooray for Irene!
Like this start. Reminds me of the band Eloy.
  Mon. 11/22/10 12:08pm cubicle carl:

Ahh...In a Silent Way. The mother of...well just about everything.
  Mon. 11/22/10 12:52pm Looms:

Hey Irene!
I haven't understood yet why Cul De Sac chose that band name (translates "dead end"). They sound so good.
  Mon. 11/22/10 12:54pm Alan Cynic:

Great flow of sounds again.....must dig out more Curved Air!
  Mon. 11/22/10 12:56pm Irene:

Y'know, Looms, I've never thought about that. They certainly have musical places to go. I'll have to ask guitarist Glenn Jones sometime why they chose it.
  Mon. 11/22/10 12:58pm Mike East:

Glen Jones doesn't play guitar, he's a DJ, silly.
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:00pm Irene:

Sez You! You should know the other Glenn Jones is one of the finest fingerstyle/electric guitarists around.
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:02pm Looms:

Don't hurt each other, kids!
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:03pm Mike East:

It must be the extra "n" that does it. I must say that Glen Jones (one "n") is one of the finest DeeJays around, in this humble commenter's opinion
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:04pm Mike East:

as are you, Miss Trudel :)
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:21pm glenn:

cul de sac means bottom of sack, or bag end.
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:31pm Looms:

Oh, cul de sac isn't used that way since the 19th century in Europe, Glenn. Maybe it still is in Canada because the language evolved differently. Here it now means "dead end" or "dead end street".
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:37pm Randall:

That was the perfect song for this rainy day here in sao paulo, brazil. thanks
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:39pm glenn:

nah, canadian french isn't really that french. i reallize it means dead end. the direct, literal translation is bottom of sack.
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:40pm glenn:

david celia is quite good, by the way.
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:41pm jeremy:

that nordic synth track, is awesome
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:44pm Brian in UK:

I believe Phil Ochs played a benefit for Victor Jara who had an English wife.
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:45pm Looms:

Yes, it's a very nice set.
@Glenn: all agreed about canadian french. I think it's much more evocative than ours, and i dig it.
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:48pm Randall:

ebi bi yo = carry me
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:49pm Randall:

better translation;

Egbe mi o = Carry me, I want to die
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:54pm Randall:

i did a quick google search and that's what i came up with
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:55pm from quebec:

canada checking in!
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:56pm trojan:

france listenning too
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:56pm jean:

et de l'autre bout du canada, listening in from vancouver!
  Mon. 11/22/10 1:59pm Michael Miracle:

Listening in from Richmond, VA. Had the pleasure to meet Michael this past Thursday. Nice to hang out. YAY Nino Rota Tune. Cheers.
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:07pm KM:

I love that song. so happy it got played
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:23pm glenn:

i see from the playlist that irene played, and i missed curved air. my guilty prog rock pleasure. they're at it again/still. is stewart copeland still married to sonja the singer?
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:31pm Brian in UK:

Do not know about that Glenn but he was born on exactly the same day as me. Thought you would be interested in that!
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:34pm glenn:

i assume you mean glenn jones and not me.
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:36pm Brian in UK:

Stewart Copeland I mean Glenn.
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:37pm Chaz:

Lucinda Black Bear!
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:43pm glenn:

oops. glenn confused.
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:51pm Brian in UK:

Irene, have you heard Les Shelleys, Tom Brosseau and Angela Correa. They sound right in time with your show.
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:53pm Irene:

I'm only slightly familiar with Tom Brosseau. I'll have to check the others out. Thanks for the tip!
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:54pm v k:

good afternoon Irene - today's show has been such a treat - looking forward to a few more listens over the long, lazy, and cozy holiday weekend - as always, thank you for the relaxation soundtrack
  Mon. 11/22/10 2:56pm Irene:

Thanks VK and everyone listening. See you all next week!
