Season 4
CRUMBS
Cafe is a radio show where we have local musicians stop by the
CRUMBS studio for an interview and usually an acoustic set.
Often we get the chance to record rare, acoustic versions of
your favorite local songs. |
Listen to CRUMBS Café streaming audio directly
to your computer. |
This gives musicians the opportunity
to chat a bit about who they are, what their songs are all
about, or even the local music scene in general. Shows tend
to run about 30 minutes with the musician playing three songs
live in the CRUMBS Cafe studio. |

10/20/08 On this week’s episode of CRUMBS Café
we had in the studio Charlie Everywhere. First off, what an
amazing sound and performance. We have been looking forward
to getting the band in for a while and it was worth the wait.
They came in on the heels of their mini-tour in Seattle and
on the verge of their upcoming album.
The interview was great but is all came back to the fresh
sounds of their songs. One can pull out familiar sounds the
likes of Postal Service, Air, and The Avalanches. Josh has
this great ear for catchy beats, rhythm and texturing. Sarah
has a breathy blend of vocals that interlace well with the
sometimes hard hitting beats.
Keep a close eye on this band as there is a good chance they
will be blossom beyond what the Capital Region can offer.

10/12/08 On this week’s episode of CRUMBS Café
we have in the studio Katie Haverly. We don’t often
get someone in who makes our hearts melt. With her song writing
coupled with a great voice is easy to fall into such a spell.
The episode was also co-hosted by Billy Bucher of Freakshow
Music Productions and Mike Fronk of the Mark Frederick Band.
The recording of the show started just as if it were any
other radio show with the interview. Katie gave us some pretty
interesting and some times deep discussion topics. She played
her first song of the night and it set the musical bar for
night. Then out of no where, as if the three of us were blind
sided my a Mack truck, she proceeded to perform this amazing
song with a jazz soul and vibrant, acoustic voice. We were
instantly stunned and knew that this was sure to be a hit.
Take a listen and let me know what you think about the episode;
especially the second songs. Great job Katie.

10/06/08 Maggie Mayday is the new band from former Suggestions
frontman and acclaimed singer-songwriter John Brodeur. Bassist
Jenn McCarron brings a manic energy to the stage, and a fluid
and melodic playing style to the songs. Meghan Tully can be
about the loudest drummer you've ever heard, when she's being
nice. The trio are putting the finishing touches on their
first album with producer Troy Pohl, due in early 2009.
The interview came out great and it may have been one of
our best ones. The highlights are the three acoustic songs
they were able to play. Personally I have been humming these
hooky choruses for the past couple of weeks. You will find
yourself humming them shortly after listening to the radio
show.
Since forming in the spring of 2007, Maggie Mayday has performed
alongside such acts as the Bravery, 311, Matisyahu, VHS or
Beta, Shiny Toy Guns and TV on the Radio.
