This week's musical journey showcases the magical talents of British progressive rock band, CAMEL (photo), from their 1976 LP, Moon Madness. You will hear tracks, "Another Night" and "Spirit of the Night" and previously unreleased delightfully delicious demo version of Spirit. Tune in early to hear Camel, not to be confused with Peter Frampton's group. This group comes from the fabled Canterbury area of England, the same city that spawned Soft Machine and Caravan, both of which have been highlighted by DJ Andy Bargerstock, on previous Fringe Toast episodes. Early in the show, from the same era, listen for guitar wizard, John Martyn, and a rare Ten Years After blues selection. Oh yes! ... the endorphin levels will get elevated. For sure! (PLAYLIST)
Fringe Toast first-timer, Owl City (aka Adam Young from Minnesota) delights the
ears with his unique synth-pop compositions from 2009 CD, Ocean Eyes. Allie Moss (photo) returns due to her rave reviews from a recent FT show. She'll perform tracks 2009 CD, Passerby. NEW singer-songwriters to this program will include Kendra Smith, Sad Brad Smith, and Anjani Thomas.
THE CHILLOUT SESSION in the last hour will send you beyond the moon madness. British DJ, David Lee (aka Jakatta) brings his mesmerizing blend of percussion and melodies. Then, exotic electronic band, Echophlekz takes the stage. Where do these guys come from and how have we missed them to date? Drifting into the ether, we will join Tangerine Dream, Numatic Soul, and Faithless in a musical deliverance to your doorstep and beyond. It's almost time, the spirits emerge, we swirl as one into the quiet space between.... Mark the calendar and spread the word!
