July 22 - Mad I (Formerly known as Jonathan Lorentz Band)

Hi All:

The Jonathan Lorentz band showed up for a live set last night and renamed themselves "Mad I" on the air!

They were great. Kind of like Velvet Underground meets Ralph LaLama! And maybe some early Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

Hope you had a chance to hear them. :-)

Next week, a special guest DJ will help us catch up on recorded music.

No more live acts until August 12, when Red Haired Strangers will appear live on Dusty Corners.

Keep well!
