So as much as radio sucks, I have to say that the Radio Chick show has introduced me to two new bands in the past week or so.
Last week they had on Lez Zeppelin, an all-female cover band that only plays Led Zeppelin. They were AMAZING and if they ever play dates that I can make, I’ll go. They are playing in NYC this weekend, and if I wasn’t going to NC tonight I would have tried to get tickets.
The other bands is Hayseed Dixie, a cover band that does bluegrass renditions of famous classic rock songs from the likes of AC/DC, Ted Nugent and Ozzy Osbourne, just to name a few. What hooked me was hearing their cover of AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell” – it was true bluegrass and was heavenly to listen to. :up:
If you haven’t heard these bands, you are missing out. Hayseed just released a fourth album this week, and Lez just finished recording their first and hope to release it later this year.
I have to say, both these bands seem intriguing! I will have to check out their sound. 🙂
