The Radii: The Radii - This self-titled ten track album by the new local crew the Radii really gets the sock hop going. Abbi Fernandes on the vintage mic has a powerful and lovely voice! The band is no slouch and ripping through this quick set of garage stormers with some nice piano and organ blasts. “5-9 HONEY” is a telephone romance which you should dial in! Check them out…

The Radii at the Biltmore, July 12th, 2012. This was the night the rear window in my van got smashed by vandals, but even that couldn’t dampen my spirits— great night of music with The Radii, Slow Learners, and Vicious Cycles! Also, major thanks to Mick for cleaning up the broken glass <3
