SMI Radio Ep. 68 On Demand: Impossible Bird and Eclectic Approach

This week’s episode features interesting conversation and music from a couple of brilliant Northwest acts. First, there’s the dynamic duo of Impossible Bird, consisting of Nick Drummond on guitar and vocals and Tyler Carson on fiddle. Drummond’s beautiful tenor, coupled with Carson’s sonically exquisite violin, create incredible soundscapes. After their wonderful performance at Northwest LoveFest, they talked about their music, their influences, and how they came up with their unique sound and name.

Impossible Bird will be performing Thursday, October 4th, at the Oliver Franklin CD Release Show at OM Culture, as well as October 6th and 7th at the Seattle Fusion Festival.

Eclectic Approach had a huge week. They performed in front of a national television audience this past Monday (10/1) on Jimmy Kimmel Live. This Seattle outfit fuses funk, pop, rock, and hip hop to create a very musically diverse musical stew.The group’s frontman Jowed Hadeed and guitarist Ryan Jander discuss their unique, fun, and funky sound.

Jordan Dettmer from Protosong.com also stops by. Protosong brings music fans an exclusive playlist of unreleased songs from stellar independent Seattle artists over a two week period – and it’s for an equally stellar cause. Jordan tells how the project came about, who is involved, and the impact they hope to make. Get more details at the link below.
