Ra Ra Riot

It is unusual for young, college bands to gain widespread critical acclaim just months after their formation, but that's exactly how Ra Ra Riots story began. (04/15/2009)

Named after a Public Image Ltd song, it's not hip hop that the group is known for, but their signature New York 'dance-punk' sound. Radio 4 joined Mary Lucia in the Current studios to perform a song. (03/04/2005)

Julie lives there now and has had success not only recording her own music, but also having it recorded by the likes of Alison Krauss. (12/14/2007)

Rain Machine

His current incarnation, Rain Machine, released its self-titled debut this summer on Anti-Records. (10/16/2009)
