Conrad Doucette, Unbroken Chain
Producer/host Bemis is joined by Brooklyn-based musician Conrad Doucette, drummer for Takka Takka and the related side project Gabriel and the Hounds, as well as proud owner of the early adopter Twitter handle @conrad. He will take this show into the dark heart of the 1980s (and 70s) and theorize that those sounds may soon overpower today's overpowering 90s nostalgia.
With tracks by Takka Takka, Parquet Courts, The Walkmen, Randy Newman, Harry Nillson, Tom Waits, Mary Margaret O'Hara, Rush, Pavement, Van Morrison, Richard Hawley, Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd, Grateful Dead, The Feelies, Parquet Courts.
