The next ConservativeLA Radio show (on Duane FM in the Hughniverse, Friday, 02/13/15, 7:00 Pacific/10:00 Eastern) will be a two-part show.
The first hour will consist of what I’ll call New Retro–newer artists who, for the most part, harken back to old school Country and the like. With the exception of Big Sandy & The Fly-Rite Trio (a favorite of David Burge AKA Iowahawkblog), the bands come from these two articles by Nicholas Pell:
10 Country Artists You Should Be Listening To
10 More Country Artists You Need to Listen To
The second hour will be songs about wrecks and crashes, with an emphasis on train wrecks.
Hence the show title, New Retro Wrecks. See what I did there?
