Sarathy Korwar lays down some fruity beats with Zia Ahmed - a podcast by Richard and Tobin: Self confessed music addicts
from 2019-07-20T22:00:16
Welcome to the show today where we have an exclusive pre-release from percussionist Sarathy Korwar. The top track and FTBOTRB Recommendation features signature Indian-influenced beats with Londonesque vocals over the top by Zia Ahmed. It's a banger of a track so let's spin up the show and get cracking. You'll learn more about Sarathy Korwar later on. If you, like us, hate commercial music then you are in the right place. We've got musical conversation and also New Music from Tobin as usual, which is more than likely divisive. This week's New Music is certainly a nod back to 80's cinematography and gets us remembering back to some high fashion. The Shiftless Rounders provide the bookend this week with beautiful mountain harmonies, exquisite resonator guitar work and a clarinet! An unusual pairing for sure but listen on to hear how good a pairing it really is. The bookend at the bottom of the show is also a live performance from The Shiftless Rounders (unusual name there) which showcases brilliantly their guitar mastery. Following their slightly jazzy, rag-time sound comes Jolie Holland with a similarly old-fashioned song dripping with nostalgia. Tobin reacquaints himself with his own prophecy that the US doesn't do indie very well and finds that he may actually be wrong. Lord Huron are the ones doing the damage to Tobin as he reevaluates his position on US indie. And last but far from least is Ivy-Jane Browne bringing up the rear. Let's dive straight in.
