WR990: Backyard show 02/06/2018
This isn't a regular episode of Witchpolice Radio -- it's a bit of a throwback from the ol' vault. Here's the audio from a backyard show at my house in June of 2018, featuring performances by Anne-Marie Williot, Roger's Arsenal, Gerrit Delaquis, and Project: Constellation.
This has never been released before in audio podcast form, although it is available in video form (individual song videos) on the LSD25RECORDS YouTube channel, thanks to local musician Kumaran Reddy, who attended a lot of the early house shows we did.
There are a few songs by each artist here, aside from Anne-Marie, whose one performance that got recorded is not even through the PA -- she just performed on the grass in the yard with her accordion! Need more from these artists? Check out Anne-Marie on episode #479 (April 2020), Roger on episodes #222 (March 2017) and #429 (Oct. 2019), Gerrit on episode #272 (Feb. 2018), and Project: Constellation on episodes #292 (June 2018) and #356 (Feb. 2019).
