Get up close and personal with the artists on this week's modcast, featuring great music spanning nearly 50 years. 
Another week another modcast. It's been a sunny, sultry, and unseasonably warm summer here in Seattle. The dog days of summer are indeed upon us, and now you've got a soundtrack to go with it. So, catch some rays, catch some cocktails, and catch the beat. 
Summer is in full swing, even in 
Shake, rattle, bang your head. This is music that is meant to get your blood pumping. So, slam back a cold one and get off your fat backside and shake a tailfeather.
The stakes are high but lucky for you I've spun up such a combination for this week's modcast that there's no way you can lose. Get your bets down now. 
Got a great lineup for you on this episode of the mod, mod world. Like a blast from the past one of the most primal garage rock combos of all time has just dropped a new album like a bomb and shaken up the whole garage rock world, The Sonics are back with all new music. More than that there's some brand new ska sounds, as well as a few old ska tracks, some great power pop, and the ubiquitous more. So crack open a cold one and get to listenin'. 
Hard to believe it's been almost a decade since the first modcast away back in May of 2006! The world is a smaller place than it was when I kicked this thing off, and I like to think a better place because of it. Joining me to celebrate and commiserate the end of Mad Men is frequent mod world guest host Ken from The Shingles. 
If you asked me to DJ your dance party you'd get something kinda like this -- a whole set of floor filling, toe tapping, blistering rug cutters. I'll keep the chat to a minimum and let you just dig the deep grooves. Get to steppin'!
Modcasts like this one don't come along very often. Only every week or so as I get 'em produced! This week is no exception, including all the professional production standards, great music, and as one modcast critic it put it "a voice never meant for radio." With an endorsement like that I know you won't waste anytime checking this week's offerings from the fine folks listed below. 
Welcome back to the mod world. Digging through my music and unearthing a whole bunch of cool tracks this week. With everything from new stuff from Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra and The Dollyrots all the way back to Jefferson Airplane and Small Faces, it's going to be quite a ride. 
Welcome to the new year. Got a nice mix of mostly new tracks this week with some new sounds from old friends as well as from some new voices. I think you'll dig it and it's a good way to kick of the new year.
