Thanks to everyone who came out to Battle of the Bands on the 2nd! Congratulations to our winners Knuckle Puck Time who will be going into high rotation at WTSR shortly! A big thank you to The Dundees, Lost Romance, and Gianna’s Sweet Debut for their great performances!

Little Green Cars hail from Ireland with a big sound, some wondrous harmonies and heartbreaking lyrics. Something about them – maybe those harmonies – kind of reminds me of Ra Ra Riot or Dirty Projectors, but your mileage may vary. Check out their hit, The John Wayne, here. If you like what you hear you can download their song Maw Maw for FREE on their facebook page, and The John Wayne is available on iTunes now! Also be sure to check out their website for more information/drawings.
