Katie Haverly - Episode 043

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.

Maggie Mayday - Episode 042

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.
