NEW SHOW!
Host: Alex Piandes
Alex, the former host of WMFO‘s Coffee ‘n’ Smokes, returns to broadcasting (well, “podcasting”) with The Desperate Hour on GaragePunk.com. This first episode includes sets featuring female artists, Boston-area artists (including a recording of a live performance from WMFO’s legendary Studio Dee), and anything else that he could cobble together on a week’s notice. The experience is, as has been described by another podcaster, akin to a 12-year-old with his first tape recorder—only better… Enjoy!
