Needtobreathe

Last Friday the band Needtobreathe came into the Lightning 100 studios before their sold out Cannery Ballroom performance. They performed two songs live in our studios. My allergies were kicking my butt that day, but I did my best to talk to them about what they had been up to lately, their humble beginnings, and what it meant to play a recent show at Ryman Auditorium.

Here is a link to the interview:

Interview with Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies

Ed Robertson of the band Barenaked Ladies called me today. Here is the interview which aired on Lightning 100 in Nashville, TN on 100.1 FM and on our internet stream at http://Lightning100.com

We talked about the new Barenaked Ladies album, "All in good time", what is was like going in the studio without Steven Page, playing the Ryman Auditorium, and some of his favorite Nashville memories.

Barenaked Ladies will perform at the historic Ryman Auditorium May 10th, 2010 with special guest Ingrid Michaelson. You can get tickets and info on the concert page at Lightning100.com

Since I only spoke with Ed on the phone today I do not have any video footage. I did find five Ingrid Michaelson videos from previous performances on Lightning 100. I'll post them all here in case you missed any of them.
