I thought I’d give a shout out to some of my old roomates down in New Mexico. Their band, The Pioneers of Prime Time TV played a beautiful cover of Iron and Wine’s “Radio War” at the Uller Fest.
In the video, Thomas the lead singer and guitarist, and Dave the bassist, are my two roomates from back in the day in Seattle. We would all get together and jam into the wee hours of the morning, but not usually anything remotely as folksy as this. It seems that all of us who lived in that house together, that I know of, have mellowed out a bit in our musical tastes.
Although, I should say, Thomas and Dave were always playing more folksy stuff anyways off to the side.
Anyways, their band is great, and if you ever get a chance to go down to the Las Alamos area in New Mexico, you should check them out.
