Brian Dolazni on the Sunday Brunch Concert

Sunday, April 18, 1:00 p.m.
Live in our studio and on the air!

"There is something insistent in Dolzani's music that won me over" - TIRBD blog

[Brian] exudes the melodic charm and trebly vocal hitches of Jules Shear and the heartbreaking warmth and intriguing lyrical turns of Freedy Johnston" - Cincinnati City Beat

Brian Dolzani is an engaging and energetic singer/songwriter, drawing comparisons to artists such as Dave Matthews, Neil Young, and Freedy Johnston. He is supporting his 5th CD release, the self-titled 'Brian Dolzani'. Brian tours across New England and beyond, pulling audiences into his introspective, emotive and deeply imagistic songwriting. Tune in to hear songs from his latest release, as well as some brand new songs from his ever-evolving songwriting catalog. Not to be missed.

This show takes place in the friendly confines of our FM studio. Space is limited. Please call 203-331-9756 for reservations.

New Discovery Channel series: Headliest Catch

A look deep inside the most dangerous trade in America: Vending nitrous.

[cuts to a scene of a greasebag pounding a frozen tank against the pavement]
"so uhh basically when they freeze up... you gotta get em flowin' again. [looks around nervously] the trick is, man... you gotta... dislodge the ice... while at the same time... [looks around nervously again] not drawing too much attention... [looks over his shoulder] to yourself... or they'll confiscate your tanks... [looks around again, this time spotting someone walking towards him in a collared shirt.] SHIT! SIX UP! SIX UP! [takes off running.]"

[pans over to two dudes fist fighting near a tank]
Mike Rowe Narrates: "9 miles from the center of philly. Here, two rival gas dealers are trying to catch the same phish in the same location. Gas vending is very territorial. Each crew has their honey holes, these honey holes have been passed down on charts and road maps through generations of vendors. It's times like these, when someone's in another crew's spot, that things get ugly."

Glenn Roth live on the Sunday Brunch Concert

Influenced both by talented fingerstyle artists such as Tommy Emmanuel, Michael Hedges, and Preston Reid and the bombast and melodicism of bands like Tool and 311, Glenn has developed a style of solo acoustic guitar playing that’s uniquely his own: aggressive, emotional, vibrant, melodic, in turn and often within the same song. Anyone who has marveled at Glenn’s brilliant acoustic interpretation of Iron Maiden’s Run to the Hills, a YouTube hit and a tribute to those early days of air-guitar, can attest to Glenn’s imaginative and virtuosic guitar playing.

Join us in the intimate setting of our broadcast studio for what promises to be a wonderful set of music.

Space is limited. For reservations & directions, call 203-331-9756.
