Kim and Reggie Harris - Sunday Breakfast - 2013

6.12.13 at 2:20pm by John Platt

Kim and Reggie Harris are one of my favorite married musical couples. Their lives have been very eventful in the past few years. Kim just received her doctorate in sacred music from Union Theological Seminary (with a dissertation called "Welcome Table: A Mass of Spirituals"). Reggie had an emergency liver transplant which gave him a new lease on life. (Hence the title of their new CD, "Resurrection Day.") They brought their hard-won wisdom, their laughter, and their harmonies into Studio A for a warm and wonderful session.

MS MR - FUV Live - 2013

Lizzy Plapinger and Max Hershenow are the NYC duo known as MS MR. They recently released their full length debut, Secondhand Rapture, and stopped by our Studio A to play some of their new songs and chat with me about their music making process.

Question of the Day: Protest Redux?

6.12.13 at 7:31am by Morning Show

What do Sting, Green Day, Ed Sheeran, and Mumford & Sons all have in common? They're all taking part in next week's agit8 project, an anti-poverty movement backed by the One Campaign, created by U2's Bono, designed to influence leaders at the upcoming G-8 summit in Northern Ireland. A group of many great artists will be coming together to get people riled up by re-recording some classic protest songs. If you were producing this record, what songs would you include?

Robert Randolph and the Family Band - Live Concert - 2013

6.11.13 at 5:08pm by Alisa Ali

Here is a live broadcast of an amazing FUV Live show with Robert Randolph and the Family Band. It was recorded at Rockwood Music Hall on the Lower East Side here in NYC. We were treated to a preview of some of the songs from the new album, Lickety Split, which comes out in July. The band also performed some classic songs from their catalog, including a very lively version of "I Need More Love." This show demonstrates the awesome control and skill that Robert Randolph has over the pedal steel guitar, and what enthralling performers he and his band are.
