  • PM Zu Dance Gavin Dance & Veil of Maya
    PM zu Dance Gavin Dance & Veil Of Maya Dance Gavin Dance & Veil Of Maya präsentieren ihre neuen Experimental Metal Alben „Mothership“ und „False Idol“ gemeinsam am 14.03.18 im Logo live Hamburg, November 2017 – Für Fans experimentellen Metals ist die gemeinsame Tour von Dance Gavin Dance und Veil Of Maya der Höhepunkt des kommenden Jahres. Die beiden US-amerikanischen Bands aus Sacramento und Chicago haben vier Daten als Co- Headliner im März 2018 bestätigt, im Gepäck haben sie ihre beiden aktuellen Alben „Mothership“ und „False Idol“. Am 14.03.18 spielen Dance Gavin Dance und Veil Of Maya in Hamburg im Logo live! Dance Gavin Dance zeichnen sich durch kontinuierlichen Ausbau und Entwicklung ihres musikalischen Sortiments aus. Ursprünglich aus der Post-Hardcore-Szene von Sacramento stammend, kommen über die Jahre immer mehr Einflüsse hinzu, so dass sich inzwischen Elemente des Screamo, Funk, Soul, Pop, Disco und Hip-Hop in ihrer Musik finden lassen. Schon früh machten sie auf sich aufmerksam, auf der eine Seite durch ihren ehemaligen Sänger Jonny Craig aufgrund seiner für das Genre absolut unüblichen Soul-Einflüsse, auf der anderen Seite durch Gitarrist Will Swan, der für komplizierte, schnelle Licks und Riffs bekannt ist. Weitere definierende Merkmale von Dance Gavin Dance sind das abwechslungsreiche und rhythmisch komplexe Spiel von Schlagzeuger Matthew Mingus und die Kombination von sauberem Gesang und Screaming der zwei Frontmänner. Das aktuelle Album „Mothership“, das insgesamt siebte, erreicht sogar Platz 13 der US-Charts. 2004 in Chicago gegründet, nehmen Veil Of Maya 2005 ihr erstes Demo mit drei Songs auf. Nach dem Motto „Do It Yourself“ beginnt das Quartett, eigene Konzerte und Touren zu veranstalten und zu organisieren.

  • Patty Williamson
    Salem Class Favorite Radio Format: Adult Alternative/Triple A ALUMNI of 1988 Favorite Artist: Oh, that’s tough to narrow down. But, I guess I’d have to say Elvis Costello is probably my favorite. PROFILE I have to throw in Tom Petty, Lucinda Williams, Nick Lowe, Jill Sobule, Wilco, Ben Folds, Bon Iver and Ella Fitzgerald, too. Favorite Song: Now, that’s just a mean question. Of all-time? Hmmm. I’ll go with “Crediting Men’s Hayride” by Frank Allison & the Odd Sox, a great band from Ann Arbor. It’s on their Monkey Business album from 1988 Favorite Movie: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Fight Club, When Harry Met Sally, or Lost in Translation would probably top my list of favorite films. But again, as a film criticism professor, it’s tough to choose. Favorite TV Show: At the moment, I’d probably say Dexter, Mad Men and Top Chef. If I can include shows that are no longer on the air, I’d throw in West Wing and Lost Favorite Book: To Kill a Mockingbird Hobbies: Traveling, watching movies, hanging out with friends, rooting for the Detroit Tigers Patty Williamson Where has life taken you since you left WSDP? aircheck at the Great Lakes Radio Conference was a high point for me personally (all thanks go to former Station Manager After graduating from Plymouth-Salem in ‘88, I attended CMU, Dave Snyder for that).
