Supporting music in Richmond since 2000 - "Hello, my love, I heard a kiss from you / Red magic satin playing near, too / All through the morning rain I gaze, the sun doesn't shine / Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind / In the garden, I see, west purple shower bells and tea / Orange birds and river cousins dressed in green / Pretty music, I hear, so happy and loud / Blue flowers echo from a cherry cloud" - The Brothers Johnson, “Strawberry Letter 23”

Late Night Pick of the Night: Freddie Gibbs & Death
Let's head out to the fringes tonight on Last Call with Carson Daly at 1:35 AM on NBC. Two acts on there tonight. The first is new gangsta rapper Freddie Gibbs who the LA Times says "boasts the rare ability to be both crude & refined." Then, check out proto-punk band Death. They were formed by three brothers who hail from Detroit in 1971 and broke up in 1977 after making some much-lauded proto-punk music that few people had heard. Flash forward to 2009 when their music is released on a new label and two of the brothers (one had died) reform the group to get the acclaim that had eluded them the first time around.
