Send us a text It's a BRAND NEW episode of Bakotunes! I'm honored to welcome my guest Monique Powell of Save Ferris to the show! It was an opportunity I could not pass up and after a few tech delays, it finally happened. Monique and I go back to the early days of the band in Orange County, gigging alongside ska homies Reel Big Fish and more before getting swept up in the third wave ska craze and a hit single - a cover of Dexy's Midnight Runners 80s classic, "Come On Eileen"! That was followed with tours across the globe and back, in the van, and of course, tons of sweaty ska shows packed with sweaty, skankin' checkerboard kids. It was the nineties and it was a blast. Lots of fun facts and ska time warping! We also have classic Save Ferris music and their latest single, "Get Dancing!" that just dropped at all music outlets on 4/25. Enjoy! https://saveferris.com/ **Episode features the songs "Come On Eileen," "Get Dancing", "The World Is New" by Save Ferris. Also contains excerpts from: "Orange County, CA (1976)", "MTV Skaturday", Save Ferris Honda Commercial, "Sid & Nancy", "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", "Teens React to 90s Ska Music".

Send us a text Kellie Pickler deserves her flowers... I remember this interview before her performance at the Kern County Fair in 2011, and she was by far one of the nicest artists I've interviewed. Longtime fans know her story from Sonic car hop waitress to American Idol to the big time, but behind the scenes Kellie Pickler has also rolled the painful punches of life. I haven't heard what she's been up to lately, but if she or her fans find their way to this episode - find a way to get her back onstage and in the studio! Episode features the songs, "Red High Heels" and "I Wonder".  Support the show Sponsored by Chain Cohn Clark - Kern County's leading accident, injury, and workers' compensation law firm.

Includes the songs, "100 Miles From Memphis" and "All I Wanna Do". A midweek Bakotunes bonus episode to help save you from the blahs with one of the best singer-songwriters around, Sheryl Crow!
