So, I’m going to post all of our recordings that have taken place since the last time I blogged. Some of them are parents weekend and NOT friendly folk, and last week Nathan was friendly enough to cover the shift while I was attending MacRock. Stay tuned for Prince Rama, who played there and was *awesome*.

Last week was Seize the Airwaves, so there was no friendly folk! We missed y’all so much! To make up for it though, we’ve got some special folky specials!
WUOG interviewed Akron/Family the day before their show at the 40 Watt.
Also, Jason played a special set highlighting MV&EE who is Matt “MV” Valentine and his partner Erika “EE” Elder. The recording starts, already in progress, with The Tower Recordings and progresses through time to the most recent MV&EE work, Barn Nova. The sound is emblematic of the new weird america movement which is a heavy drone/reverb/lo-fi recording style.

Skip ahead 7minutes to hear the beginning of the set, we were off air for a minute. Also, I believe the end of the show cuts off as well. Sorry y’all!

Nathan and Jason will be out of town this weekend, but that means you’ll be hearing a very special friendly folk from one of the folks we call our friend.
See you Saturday. Also remember, the Akron / Family concert is the 18th at the 40 Watt.

There was a little bit of confusion this week – Nathan and I actually started Deejaying earlier than normal. We forgot to change playlists from the previous deejay, so here’s a link to this week’s playlist. It starts with Sue Jorge.
If you have something special you’d like to hear on next week’s show, send us an email at friendlyfolk at wuog dot org.
We’re looking forward to bringing you more unique contemporary folk music next week, so stay tuned.
