New Interviews this week.

Hey out there.

I'm a bad blogger. I don't take enough time to keep this updated. But I plan on correcting that in the near future.

So, for now, I'll just give you all out there a quick update on some of the different things I've been up to on the show of late.

This past week I was proud to present interviews with two great bands. The first should need little to no introduction to fans of psychobilly music. Vic Victor of The Koffin Kats was our guest on the first hour of Psycho Radio this week. You can check out the interview in the first hour of the show here.

At the beginning of the second hour of the show, Frank from the upcoming Montreal psychobilly band Matchless was on the show, talking about the future of this fairly new band. They first gained some attention in the Canadian psychobilly scene due to the addition of Flipper of the legendary Montreal band Gutter Demons to their band on bass. Now, with a full length album fresh off the presses and their own sound becoming established, Matchless seem to be a band to watch. Check out the second hour of this week's show here.

More posts will come soon. New interviews will be forthcoming with some great Canadian bands and some new features on the show will highlight other great up and coming and established bands that are making the Canadian scene one to watch.

The end of an era

Fireball Promotions announced this past Sunday that their show this past Hallow e'en was to be their last Grease 'n Grind. This announcement caught almost all of Vancouver's rockabilly and psychobilly scene by surprise. It's taken me a few days to collect my feelings about this turn of events. I will miss these monthly shows more than I will ever be able to properly express. I have made more friends at Pat's Pub than any single place in my life. The radio show I do would not have been able to bloom into the quality program it has become without a fertile place like the Grease 'n Grinds and their consistent access to great bands, particularly great Canadian 'billy bands like The Brains, Raygun Cowboys, Gunsmoke, The Matadors, The Still Creek Brothers, Eve Hell and the Razors, The Grave Mistakes, and, of course, the man who was the last performer at a Grease 'n Grind, Bloodshot Bill.


Next week on Psycho Radio, I plan on doing a tribute to all the great bands i've met at Grease 'n Grinds, and all the great bands who performed at them before my time, such as The Koffin Kats, Zombie Ghost Train, Gutter Demons, and The Meteors.


For now, I will just once again express how grateful I am to Steve and Melinda from Fireball for everything they've done for me and the show and wish them well in all their future endeavours.
