Adam Franklin (Swervedriver, etc.) live in the studio (and interviewed) now on Rabid In The Kennel!

Adam Franklin at The Kennel Studio
9 June 2010

“Rabid In The Kennel” appears for the first time in a month with a very special guest: the one and only Adam Franklin , best known as the singer/guitarist/leader of (the recently reunited) Swervedriver and before then Shake Appeal , and since then Toshack Highway and solo, all the way from Oxford, England! He’s solo acoustic singing songs from his new third solo LP (backed by his new solo band The Bolts of Melody) , I Could Sleep For a Thousand Years etc. and he sits for a long 35-minute chat.

Visit Breakthru Radio now to hear my exclusive interview with Adam Franklin (a fun, congenial interview with an old friend), and his live, solo performance at The Kennel Studio in Brooklyn! And you can click on this link and listen to it any day, at any time, at your leisure! You won’t believe how quietly he sings and plays solo acoustic, it sure adds a lot of power!

Links to all past Rabid In The Kennel Sessions are here where there are also photos and videos of the sessions as well.

(Past guests include Leatherface, The Posies, TV Smith, Joe Pernice, Miranda Lee Richards, Justin Sullivan of New Model Army, Lou Barlow, Sloan, Astrid Williamson, Alina Simone, Doug Gillard of Guided By Voices, Gem, Cobra Verde, Death of Samantha etc., and Paul Collins of The Nerves and The Beat.)

And be sure to watch this space, or rabidinthekennel.com, for updates on when to tune in next time (the second Wednesday in July) when we present Seattle’s great Visqueen playing stripped-down, semi-unplugged songs off their new LP (just coming our now on vinyl!), Message to Garcia ! Don’t miss!
