Darondo

Here's the short story: being compared to Al Green, he recorded three soul singles in the early 1970s, disappeared for 25 years until BBC Radio 1 host Gilles Peterson brought Darondo, also known as Double D or Dynamite D, out of hiding in 2005 on his "Gilles Peterson Digs America" compilation. That's also the long story. (03/14/2008)

The Dears

It's hard to stay grounded when you've been called " ... the Best New Band in the World," but this tight-knit group has remained true to their original blend of orchestral arrangements, narratives, and pop. (12/08/2006)

The Dears

Canadian group The Dears have spent many years on the road, but those road weary days don't reflect in their blend of orchestral pop. They joined Mary Lucia in the Current studios to talk about life on the road and to perform songs from their past few releases. (06/03/2005)
