Kubatana Marimba Ensemble on WWR

I like most of the music that plays on Whole Wheat Radio, but sometimes a song comes on that grabs my attention so much it deserves an opening sentence far better than this one! Today’s such song was by the Kubatana Marimba Ensemble, that just happened to be the Artist of the Day.

Jim Kloss woke me up this morning

Jim Kloss from Whole Wheat Radio

The heading reads like the opening line of a terrible blues song.

"So this song is by Erving Mills, who’s name is also a sentence…

WWR artist of the day 02: Chicago Blues Reunion

Given I already linked to John Gorka from Whole Wheat Radio yesterday, I thought it’d be fun to do an artist of the day thingy here for a week and see what new stuff I discover. Today’s band is one I’d never heard before, but they hands down do the best rendition of Born in Chicago that I’d ever friggen heard in my life, the Chicago Blues Reunion!

I could transcribe their description, but best to go to their artist page and see for yourself; from there you can also see their links to other social networks and even request some of their songs and the WWR audio stream will accommodate :).
