In Episode 55, The People’s Blues of Richmond rocked the Rubber Room. These guys epitomize rock and roll–what it has always been and what it always will be. Their music is straight ahead, pure expression. There was also an unexpected guest to the show: the infamous, yet unknown rocker, Radley Rockwell, stopped by unannounced. Apparently he’s a pretty big deal. Or so he says. If you’ve ever heard the phrase “rock n’ roll is dead,” this episode is proof that it’s not. It lives and breathes in Richmond VA.

Includes RVA Music from The Inflatables, Apache Radio, Downbeat Switch, Black Girls and Ghost Owls.
