Fewsh

Fewsh is a music program. The only thing that distinguishes it from its nearly countless contemporaries is the simple fact that it is not one of its nearly countless contemporaries. This is not to say that Fewsh is unprecedented in any way, shape, or form. It is actually intended to point out quite the reverse! Fewsh is much like a single hotel room in a vast hotel. Though room C23 might be identical to every other room in a given hotel, it is individual by virtue of the fact that it is no other room than C23. However, it should be stated that Fewsh aims to provide a slightly different aesthetic approach, thereby justifying its existence.

What the above paragraph failed to communicate is that Fewsh's mission is to celebrate music in a very all-genres-welcome fashion. This is exemplified by the new segment Dark Alley Knife Fight wherein two songs so dissimilar as to be considered aesthetic enemies are heard tandem. Tune in and hear it for yourself Mondays from 6 to 8 pm here on G-Town Radio. Fewsh; it's 81% music, 19% oh my gosh!

Reade McCardell is the host of Fewsh (or maybe Fewsh is the host of Reade McCardell, it's anyone's guess). He's a pale fellow with a sizable affection for music. He knows you like music too, and hopes you can find some satisfaction in the material he plays.

To learn more about the host feel free and encouraged to visit Reade's myspace page and/or e-mail him at fewsh@gtownradio.com.

Tonight the spotlight was, for a brief time, on The Waronkers, a family name that has become nearly synonymous with music. Additionally we heard from The Olivia Tremor Control, Daniel Licht, Badly Drawn Boy, Dark Captain Light Captain, and numerous others.

Plenty of ripe and flavorful tracks were pulled from the moist soils in the garden of recorded music for this evening's program. We heard several selections from an excellent compilation released by Tender Loving Empire, a medley (of sorts) from the soundtrack to Here Is What Is, and finely crafted songs by such disparate entities as Heatmiser, Supertramp, and Fruit Bats.

Because this show happened to air on Matthew Sweet's Birthday it consisted largely of Matthew Sweet material (much to my delight). To even attempt at describing the majesty of the proceedings would be futile; I suggest you click through to the playlist.

On the 30th of October in 2006, Exercise1 Recordings released a compilation that consists of 50 one-minute songs fittingly titled 50minutes. On the 29th of September in 2008, an eight-minute segment from this compilation was played on Fewsh. What's the significance of this? You tell me. (Hint: there is none)

Heady news friends! Heady news indeed! Another Static-ridden Phone Interview took place on Fewsh tonight, this time with author Jimmy McDonough (the man behind a number of scintillating biographies and profiles)! It was riveting, informative, mind-broadening! Unthinkably good music was unearthed as well!
