Naim

Naim Amor is yet another one of Tucson’s great musical imports, and he travels all over the musical map with his jazz, rock, and indie-pop stylings. His latest album, Sanguine, was first released on the Atmospheriques label in Europe, but this Sunday (December 2nd) Club Congress will host the local release party for the new CD. Part of their new monthly BBQ series, this early show will kick off around 7pm.

In the meantime, Naïm joined us for the live segment of Locals Only, and you can now download the Naim Amor Studio 2A Performance and Interview.

Mr. Free and the Satellite Freakout – November 12, 2007

Mr. Free and the Satellite Freakout have been entertaining Tucson music fans with their shock and awe campaign. The “awe” comes courtesy of proggy rhythms and hyperactive vocal stylings that fall somewhere between Mr. Bungle and Captain Beefheart. Meanwhile, the “shock” is evident to anybody that has ever happened to catch one of their live shows.

While you might have missed their recent CD release party at Plush, you can now download the Mr. Free and the Satellite Freakout Studio 2A Performance and Interview.
