Yellowbirds is Sam Cohen of Apollo Sunshine’s most recent musical outlet. Their Royal Potato Family debut The Color came out in 2011 and is a absolutely beautiful collection of songs. If you haven’t heard Yellowbirds, check ‘em out here and then tune in to Beyond Beyond is Beyond on East Village Radio on Thursday from noon-2pm EST, for a live session.
And be sure to check out the Yellowbirds with our friends, Woodsman, at Mercury Lounge on February 17th…brought to you by our other pals at Dog Gone Blog. (Awesome flier art by yet another buddy, Justin Gabbard)
As a big YES fan, I am proud to say that with this new Steve Howe interview, I have now rounded out (not roundabout) interviewing the classic Fragile and Close to the Edge-era lineup. High school Mike Newman would be very proud. He might even freak out!
So tune in to see if much-older Mike Newman freaks out whilst speaking with one of the greatest guitarists ever in rock music. We talked about everything from Yes to Zappa to Asia to Tomorrow. I may have even convinced him that he should put Tomorrow back together!
I’ll air my interview with Steve Howe on Thursday, January 26th on Beyond Beyond is Beyond on East Village Radio, from noon to 2pm EST. Come join us.
Many of you Beyonders have expressed the desire to acquire the amazing Bang Bang Boogaloo / Beyond Beyond is Beyond psych comp art, which was conjured up by Justin Gabbard.
There were only 25 prints made, so go grab your hand-numbered, signed poster right from Justin’s webstore.
Cheers!
Noon to 2pm on EVR.
OK, so this WAS Radio Moscow. Led by singer/guitarist Parker Griggs in the center. Drummer Cory Jack Berry (right) and Zack Anderson (left) left the band on January 7th on the second night of their tour after a bit of inter-band violence. Watch the psychedelic soap opera unfold here…
Like psychedelic sands through the hourglass…
So Radio Moscow are slated to play live on Beyond Beyond is Beyond on East Village Radio on Thursday, so we’ll see what goes down. Hopefully they’ll come rock for us. Their new album, The Great Escape of Leslie Magnafuzz on Alive Naturalsound Records, was one of my favorites from 2011.
So tune in the EVR.com on Thursday from noon to 2pm (EST) as Radio Moscow’s new lineup goes BEYOND…

I’m not gonna make any jokes about them pulling you over or tell you that their music makes you feel like eating donuts and wielding power. But I will say that Brooklyn’s Ex Cops make a music that is infectious, the kind that grabs you more and more after every listen. Which actually seems like more of a rarity these days. So head over here and get a taste of their sound, then tune in Thursday and hear them live on Beyond Beyond is Beyond on East Village Radio, noon to 2pm.
