PPR #17 Flannery Brothers, Kitty Cats, Childhood Fun and Games, Opposites
Series: Pied Piper Radio
From: Pied Piper Radio
Length: 00:59:00
This week on Pied Piper Radio, we pay tribute to our feline friends. That’s right- songs about cats. We have childhood counting and game songs lined up (can you say “Duck Duck Goose”?). And we’ll be playing backward tunes, in honor of opposite day.
PPR veterans, the Flannery Brothers return to share their most recent release "The New Explorer's Club." They talk with us about the difference between exploration and adventure, and about what it means to make music as brothers.
New music this week comes from Aaron Joseph, the Salteens, Brian Vogan and his Good Buddies, Lucky Diaz, Justin Roberts, Secret Agent 23 Skidoo, and The Pop Ups.
