Hello GoodBye Show 12 March 2011: Poino and fos

Performing live in session on HG this Saturday we have both Poino and fos.

London based avant-rock trio Poino sound like Darth Vader swallowing a swarm of hornets in a jam session with early Led Zep while hell-bent on a suicide mission to perform the very best of The Cardiacs. Their thunderous tunes surreptitiously twist and turn with all the grace of an effervescent HGV pirouetting in the eye of a tornado! Hear them trail blaze their way through a short set of live songs taken from their debut album ‘Moan Loose’, available now through Horse Arm Records.

fos is the contemporary folk music project of London based Greek artist Katerina Koutouzi. fos combines; accordion, glockenspiel, harmonium, piano, melodica, daouli (a traditional Greek drum) and conch (one of the oldest instruments on earth) with a subtle palette of crystalline electronics to create an altogether organic and melodic soundscape. fos has just recently released her latest LP ‘rock’.

…and also expect to hear a tour diary account from HG co-presenter Michael Garrad as he cruises the Burrito Bars of Chicago and Texas with his anarco-punk outfit Chips For The Poor. Follow their up to the minute exploits via Twatter: HERE

Chips For The Poor – Weather Channel
Poino – Bad Bag (LIVE SESSION)
Poino – Complex Hammock Compound Swipe (LIVE SESSION)

Wavelength – Richard Thomas part 1

Good afternoon, you are listening to Wavelength on Resonance 104.4FM.

Today’s mystery guest is Richard Thomas, content manager of a well known radio station;
“The first time I knowingly encountered you was at an event off the Bethnal Green Road on the upper floor of a factory building, on a Sunday afternoon, probably 6 years ago now, organised by Mattin and Joel Stern. I showed a film and then Nishide Takehiro started a performance which involved you blowing into a plastic hosepipe immersed in a bucket of water. Hugh Metcalfe might have been playing a guitar. On leaving the factory building and approaching the Bethnal Green Road, almost directly opposite is a business premises with a large sign above the door which says “William English and Son, Funeral Directors” which came as a slight shock. I mean if you have to come across your own namesake in that way, it would be preferable to perhaps come across something more glamorous or cheerful, a Florist perhaps or a Piano Tuner…  anything but a funeral director…

Have you ever come across someone with the same name as yourself?”
