A live performance from The Cactus Blossoms Saturday, February 23rd, 11am - 1pm
on
Michael Shelley's show
Michael welcomes back brothers Jack and Page of The Cactus Blossoms for a set of live music, hopefully including a few songs from their upcoming release "Easy Way," due out March 1st. You may remember their 2016 release "You're Dreaming" was Michael's album of the year.
Nick Waterhouse and Mike Krol
Saturday, February 23rd, 3pm - 6pm
on
Todd-o-phonic Todd's show
Nick Waterhouse is a master of acknowledging his musical inspirations while simultaneously creating new and exciting sounds. This is in evidence once again on his new self-titled album for Innovative Leisure. Waterhouse combines the soulful strut of the great soul 45's he cherishes with the electricity of sixties garage rock. Catch a blistering live set from Nick and his stellar combo on the Todd-O-Phonic Todd show and don't miss him May 14th at Music Hall Of Williamsburg.
Power Chords, Mike Krol's new Merge release, picks up where 2015’s Turkey left off. It traces Krol’s journey back to punk rock, harnessing both the guitar technique and the musical redemption referenced in its title. He’s wielding the same influences—Misfits, The Strokes, early Weezer, Ramones—but turning up the gravity and the gain. Find out for yourself when Krol performs at The Knitting Factory on March 5th and on Todd's show March 23rd.

Grande Dames! Celebrating Female Artists Over Fifty
Friday, March 1st, 3pm - 6pm
on
Sophisticated Boom Boom with Sheila B.
Much has been written about society’s nod of approval for men entering their golden years whilst women of a similar age are cast aside and made invisible. In their eternal infatuation with youth, the creative industries have been especially unfriendly to older women, having largely ignored their artistic contributions. Thankfully, times they are a changing! And as part of the growing movement seeking to reverse this yawn-worthy ageism, Sheila B. will be dedicating an entire show to the music performed and /or written by women over fifty.
Robert Kimbrough Sr. Monday, April 1st, Noon - 3pm
on
Three Chord Monte with Joe Belock
Robert Kimbrough Sr continues the Cotton Patch Soul Blues style created by his father, the legendary Junior Kimbrough, coming to WFMU with his band Blues Connection for what promises to be a killer live set (This is not an Elvis Costello-type April Fools joke -- this is for real!).
Daddy Long Legs
Saturday, April 6th, 3pm - 6pm
on
Todd-o-phonic Todd's show
Daddy Long Legs return to The Todd-O-Phonic Todd show on Saturday April 6th. They will be belting out soon to be classics from their upcoming Yep Roc debut, Lowdown Ways. The most blues wailing New York trio has stayed true to their roots but simultaneously branched out on this great new album. Be sure to join them in the "Winner's Circle" on April 6th.
All times listed are Jersey City time, EST.
