October 12, 2020 17:00 - 49 minutes - 45.6 MB

June 18, 2020 15:54 - 50 minutes - 46.1 MB

This band was certainly one of the big highlights of our show until now. They came into our studio and recorded five songs live. Seven musicians, horns, accordion, keyboard, acoustic, electric, bass and drums... they just knocked me back in my chair and I knew I needed to stay close to this band.

Now, they're coming back to record...

Both have progressed in their musical careers and are now working as full-time musicians and signed with an Austrian label. This month we look up to two Open Phil artists budding into musical stars.

Pilot Episode with iO!

June 18, 2020 12:47 - 51 minutes - 46.9 MB

This is our first episode ever recorded with local underground music legend iO!. Recordings of iO! are a rare thing as he has still never published an album. We were grateful he helped us kick off our show. This is the only episode that never aired on Radio Orange, and we were still pretty much figuring out what we were doing.
