We’re excited to celebrate the release of a brand new album from pop-rock kings My Radio! This show is part of the kick-off of the Freedom First Down By Downtown Music Festival! My Radio serves up big, multi-layered pop-rock sound in original compositions that have earned it movie placements and opening gigs for the likes of Blondie, Cracker, Gin Blossoms, The Psychedelic Furs and The Smithereens. The band was born in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia when JP Powell (songwriter, vocals, keyboards, guitar) met Hunter Johnson (drums) in a local coffee shop. Both had previously played and toured in ensembles, so they bonded over an appreciation for making music and a desire to do something new. Powell and Johnson were joined by Brett Lemon (guitar), Jeff Hofmann (bass), and Jake Zuckerman (guitar) to make up My Radio.
