Gourds at our office!

Whats up blog readers!

We had an amazing visit today from The Gourds. The boys played 5 songs from their latest release Haymaker! but more importantly they brought 25 pounds of the best, most authentic Texas BBQ you can fly in straight from Austin. After gorging myself on sausage, brisket and ribs, I've decided to name my food baby Francis.

The whole crew is getting ready to head to Carrboro's very own Cat's Cradle tonight to see them play in all their glory.

Peep me out nerding out with Lego Boba Fett from when i was in Minneapolis for Christmas.

Changes in the Radio Department at Yep Roc

Happy 2009 musicland!

In case you all didn't know -- there have been a few changes around the Yep Roc office lately. Hank has taken the helm of Yep Roc's online marketing and Jay (that's me folks) will be the go-to-guy for all things radio.

So all you lovely CMJ, Triple A, Americana, Alternative Specialty and basically everything under the sun stations should reach out and say hi (as well as pass along any music call times and contact info). Feel free to email me at lewisj@yeproc.com.

So.....until then.......hazzah!
