Originally aired:
"Like most bands, Australia's Hoodoo Gurus were largely the product of their influences; unlike most bands, however, the Hoodoos channeled their inspiration from the vast entirety of the American pop cultural landscape, drawing on such disparate sources as B-movies, bad sitcoms, and junk food -- in tandem with the usual suspects like garage rock, power pop, and surf -- to create a distinctly kitschy and catchy sound." -- Allmusic.com
The band returns to the Boston area for the first time in over a decade. Earlier this year, the Gurus performed 3 blistering sets (in one day) at the SXSW music festival -- a highlight of the festival. It is a rare opportunity they will return to the Boston area (Sept. 8 at Middle East) and we are especially thrilled Guru's singer and primary songwriter, Dave Faulkner, will stop by the Circus at about 5PM to tell us what he's been up to, what's it like returning to the states, and spin a few tunes. Other Gurus may join him.
Location: 88.1 FM
