This week we introduce listeners to Australian songwriter Richard Davies who came to prominence in the 90s with is band The Moles who recorded three EPs and two LPs, and relocated to New York City. Richard has since embarked on a solo career which has included collaborations with other quality musicians including the great Robert Pollard from Guided By Voices! You can hear the track 'Zeppelin Commander' from the Davies/Pollard project Cosmos on the show. You can also hear a track a piece from the split cassette between Melbourne bands No Sister and Bitumen, out on Vacant Valley records, and lots of quality new Canadian music, including new two-piece noise-rock outfit COPE, out of Lethbridge, AB.
