Eclectic

Tons of new stuff in tonight’s Echo Chamber, including Zion Train’s new Live As One (Universal Egg:http://www.wobblyweb.com/zt/liveasone.html), the Vieux Farka Toure remix album UFOs Over Bamako (Modiba Productions:http://www.modiba.net/index2.html), and the re-released The Seven Voyages of Captain Sinbad (Greensleeves:http://www.greensleeves.net/bio/biogCaptainSinbad.html). This show is dedicated to all those killed and injured in the 35W bridge collapse – which occurred the same day this program was broadcast.

Big thanks go to Steve and Heidi from DEMO:http://www.demomn.org/ for getting up early on Tuesday and celebrating local music and Patti Smith. DEMO in conjunction with the Hennepin Theatre Trust:http://www.hennepintheatredistrict.org/ present Patti Smith at the State Theatre Monday, August 6th. Also very big thanks to Andy who put together a great show while I was out of town, including a tribute to beloved poet, teacher and artist Sekou Sundiata. Hug your loved ones.
