Favoriting October 22, 2014: LLOYD COLE live in the studio PLUS a live set from THE #1s!

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

It's week FOUR of WFMU's Silent Fundraiser and Mascot Contest, and I've put together yet another special show that demonstrates how awesome WFMU is (and hopefully to motivate you to pledge your support).

30 years to the month after the release of Rattlesnakes, English-by-way-of-Western-Massachusetts singer/songwriter Lloyd Cole stops by WFMU to play some songs, talk about his latest album, and even take part in Singles Going Steady Week! That album, Standards (Omnivore), comes out in the USA this month; it is, as Lloyd himself says, "a rock record" made up of 10 original tunes and one cover.

PLUS! An almost literally last-minute addition to the show: Dublin power-punkers The #1s! Comparing them to the Undertones is almost too easy, but it's true. If you like your punk poppy and your power-pop punky then this is the band for you! Catch them Thursday night at Hank's Saloon, Friday at the Delancey, and Saturday at the Irish Arts Center!

Now, because this is a SILENT fundraiser I won't be talking about it much at all during my show which means I'm depending on the written word to convince you to PLEASE PLEDGE! We're asking for your help so we can outfit our recently opened performance space, Monty Hall, with some key audio gear and an instrument backline so that having a show in Monty Hall doesn't disrupt the station's live recording studio.

If you've already pledged, THANK YOU! Your support is greatly appreciated. If not, P L E A S E   P L E D G E   N O W !

Make sure you tune in next week for a live set from Ultimate Painting! And please take a moment to Like The Evan "Funk" Davies Show on Facebook and follow me on Twitter! Thank you.!

Was just checking out a 91.3 God-bothering Caribbean pirate in Bklyn. That's uncomfortably close to WFMU's frequency. Oddly enough, they played a cool bluegrass version of "Will the Circle Be Unbroken?" between Caribbean sounds. A fellow radio geek pointed out that southern AM radio reaches the islands and has influenced tastes over the years. Hmm.

@IKE: That isn't the same Haitian outfit you took down a few weeks ago? They can't be back that fast? Meantime, maybe you can tell the lad/lass who played the cool bluegrass "Circle" alongside the Caribbean sounds that he/she should audition for WFMU...
