The Strombo Show - Sunday, May 12th, 2013


Vampire Weekend stop by tonight to chat with George.  They banded together in New York City in 2006.  Since then they have released two full length albums and been nominated for a Grammy Award. Their next album, Modern Vampires of the City, is due to be released on May 13th.  Have a listen to its first single, Diane Young, that was released in February.







 


 
George teams up Alex "Can-Con Don" Narvaez, Lana Gay,  Hannah Alper and Canadian Hip Hop artist, Michie Mee to celebrate Mother's Day.







 

 

No doubt the most famous garage band of all time is Nirvana.  Tonight George celebrates the garage bands with a nod to Question Mark and the Mysterians...



... and Black Lips.





 








... and of course The Magnificent Seven, the seven hottest tracks of the week, 




and Ten O'Clock with Tom (Waits).









The Strombo Show is on CBC Radio 2 Sundays from 8 pm  until 11 pm.  See you there.
