    Thievery Corporation The Cosmic Game CD (Esl Music)

    Radiohead as Pianohead

    The D.C.-based groove duo Thievery Corporation join us in support of their new release, The Cosmic Game. Issued on their own record label, the disc combines dub reggae, funk, bangara, rock, ska and punk to create wholly original sound that is often described as "mind-altering." Members Eric Hilton and Robb Garza shed some light on their music making, and how they've collaborated with the likes of David Byrne and acid-rock band The Flaming Lips. Also, pianist Christopher O'Riley returns to Soundcheck to perform a selection off Hold Me to This, his second tribute CD to British alternative-rock band Radiohead.
