Indianapolis In-Tune|Show #017: Foster's Branch Episode
The
third in our triple-shot of shows this week features the talents of
Foster's Branch. As one of the most musically diverse power trios and
certainly one of the busiest bands in the Indianapolis Scene, they have
been quietly assembling a rabid fan base in all corners of the
metropolitan area for the last several years. Now, with the successful
release of their first album, The Root of it All, they have all of the
elements lined up to take their show to the next level. From
my own perspective, this was probably the easiest interview I've ever
done. Long-time veterans of the industry, Kevin Rafferty, Shawn
Rafferty, and Travis Beck are very relaxed and professional as
performers, both on-stage and off, and talked at length about a variety
of subjects with little or no prompting or corralling from me.
Links referenced during the show:
Foster's Branch can be found here: Website / MySpace. Their debut CD, The Root of it All, is available from CD Baby, or you may download the tracks directly from iTunes, GarageBand.com, or SnoCap. Interested parties can also check out their EPK at SonicBids.Breaking with tradition slightly, this week's promo is not for a music podcast, but for a podcast novel that I recently got hooked on. 7th Son,
by J.C. Hutchins, is an exciting ride of a story that I recommend for
anyone who is a fan of action/thriller drama/adventures with an
abundance of plot twists, cliffhanger endings, and just a splash of Sci
Fi. Think of it as a cross between the TV shows 24 and The Twilight
Zone, in audio format. (See my personal blog for a review of the story and recounting of my "virtual run in" with Mr. Hutchins.) And finally, once again we put out the call for lovers and supporters of Internet radio to visit savenetradio.org
and ask their congressmen to support bill HR2060 before the evil suits
of the recording and copyright industry succeed in their devious plot
to stamp out all non-corporate-terrestrial-radio broadcasts of music.
