Flatbasset Radio: Episode #119


You can see the shadows wandering off somewhere...


Well hello again, everybody! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #119!

Oh my goodness, folks, it's been a minute. How have you been? Feeling alright? It's spring, the sun is shining, St. Patrick's Day is behind us, Facebook is crumbling... What a time to be alive, right?

Anyway, sorry I was away for a few weeks. At this point you know my litany of excuses better than I do so I won't bother rehashing them here. Let's just get to the show.

On this week's episode I've got all kinds of sweet, sweet jams for you. We begin what I'm sure will be a rich & rewarding journey into the Father/Daughter Records catalog, check in with one of the Twin Cities longest-running indie rockers, here some Denver Rap, catch a warm weather jam (in the name of spring), revisit one of the best debut albums by a Twin Cities band of the last 20 years, celebrate a few anniversaries, take a dive into Nate's Archives, take a trip in the old Minnesota Way-Back Machine, and mark the 20th anniversary of a link in the chain that is quintessentially American power-pop. It's a hell of a show, folks.
