N.O. Dead Air on tonight’s episode. Live music, bar stories, pregnant pauses, live applause-s, a convivial atmosphere, and info on exciting upcoming shows. Courtesy of Valerie Jean Capitanich (ha!) & a slew of local singer-songwriters. This week’s lineup includes some combination of Patrick Cooper, Lili Dove, Judy Hill, Ron Hotstream, Tina Jamieson, Alison McConnell, Natasha Sanchez, and whoever else wanders in with a guitar, a washboard, or a set of trigger-happy vocal cords. (You know who you are.)

4) The one and only, larger than life Judy Hill (Ooh Poo Pah Doo, b!tchez) [possibly with her band]

Ep. 17: Rivers, roads, railroad tracks, travelling, good driving tunes, etc. Thanks to Eric Ess, Shawn Williams, and the voices in their heads for sharing their songs, musings, upcoming album information, fond thoughts about Buffa’s Bar & Restaurant, and bitter conclusions about life.
