Colin spins some awesome local talent on his Feel Good Revival show on 2RRR and he graciously played a whole bunch of our stuff last night whilst we had a chat about various things, such as where Mr Wizard got his name from.
The best part of last night for me was hearing some of CB's choice tracks, including our great mate Steve Flack, some awesome harp from The Flaming Mudcats out of New Zealand and the inimitable Robert Suess. Jeez Robert can play some mean harp.
Community Radio is the greatest supporter of local talent we have in our media environment and we've been fortunate to receive such great support from local (and o/s) 'Alternative' stations. If you dont want your music experience to be limited to the Top 40 playlist, remember to spin your radio dial (or press the scan button) and check out the range of shows, themes and artists played on the Community Radio stations around Australia (and Ze Vurld!)
