SMI Radio Ep.39 On Demand: Danny Seraphine, Don Bennett and Quickie

This week on SMI Radio on NWCZ and Night Out Radio, I feature interviews with the original drummer of Chicago,  Danny Seraphine. He talks about the early days of the group,  the tragic death of original guitarist and singer Terry Kath in 1978 and a lot more.

Speaking of drummers, if you are one, then Donn Bennett is no stranger to you. He owns and runs Donn Bennet Drum Studio, an invariable mecca for drummers all over the world. Don is putting helping put on a great event this Sunday, November 5th, Woodstick Big Beat at the Juanita Field House in Kirkland Washington. 

In the third segment of the show I speak with Bassist and Vocalist, Lou Trez from the Power-pop trio, Quickie. They have a brand new song called “Latex Super Hero.” An ode to Phoenix Jones, who was arrested a few weeks back. The band is in the process of making a video and will be playing Louie G’s in December for the NWCZ Radio Holiday party.
