Technicolour Dreaming

-->

It was a more relaxed Cat & Brat this week, having recovered from last week’s 3D Radiothon marathon, but still, we hit the ground running as per the Gordon Gano song we began with! There was new music from the likes of UK songstress Suzi Chunk, Japan’s Tenniscoats and Adelaide’s Volcano Cleaner, with the latest single from Django Django and a track from Wizards of Time’s intriguing debut, plus interesting covers of songs written by the likes of Bowie and the Rutles... there was a 1971 New Zealand Top 10 chart hit by Timberjack as well as tunes from the more recent past by Painted Hills, Pugwash and the Scoundrelles plus much more, before we finished the show with a very humorous song by Baterz in his final appearance as our “Artiste of the Month”.....
