Hey all! I hope you are all keeping healthy. This is LoMo Michael. This page has not been active and was created just to connect with a couple of artists. I have stepped down as executive producer of LoMo and WMPG technical director Craig is now producing. Lots of new developments and we hope to be back on the air with new contentment soon! I will be just a humble host, the part I enjoy most.

TODAY ON LAND OF THE LOST: The Canterbury Scene was a sibling to progressive rock of the late 60s and 70s. It fused the intellectual side of prog rock with absurdity, whimsy, and pop, as well as jazz. Soft Parade and Caravan were the standard bearers, but many other bands and musicians were part of it. Join NY Mike as he delves into the Canterbury Scene, THU 3-5 PM - Here is a link to the show!

Tune in to Local Motives this Friday 1/18 for SeepeopleS live on-air. SeepeopleS is singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Will Bradford’s longtime independent cult alt-rock project whose stylistically manic collection of ethereal electronics, agitated guitar rock, narcotic samples, atmospheric pop, and acoustic-based song craft collide in a massive melodic bang that serves as the bedrock for the band’s intense, brooding lyrics and bright, sunny pop melodies. https://soundcloud.com/seepeopleswill
