Akron/Family, including trumpeter Ed Sortman in the background (WNYC/David Garland)
The band Akron/Family is adventurous, imaginative, and known for the
vitality of their marathon concerts. The fact that they are also
prolific is made clear by this show. Their new album, "Meek Warrior,"
has just been released, but they gather in the WNYC Studio not to play
music from that album; instead they join host David Garland to record
the demos for their NEXT album! The songs have just been composed, were arranged by the band a couple weeks ago in a Pennsylvania garage, and
here they try them out for the WNYC microphones, giving us the chance
to hear the songs at this early stage in their evolution.
