SMI Radio Ep. 82 On Demand: Campfire Ok & Kristen Ward (Photos)

Untitled-1

This week’s episode of SMI Radio features two brilliant artists, who each have very powerful and organic sounds, coupled with very strong production and songwriting: Campfire Ok and Kristen Ward.

In the first half of the show, members of Campfire Ok, Michael Mychal Cohen, Brandon Milner, and the band’s newest member, Zarni De Wet (who was on the last episode here) stopped by the SMI Radio studio.

These talented musicians chat up their brand new record, When You Have Arrived, and special show coming up next Saturday night, February 16 and Sunday night February 17th at The Showbox at The Market (on the bill with The Presidents of The United States of America). They share their take on their own unique and eclectic music and their appearance in the documentary, Welcome to Doe Bay.

They also call out another Seattle band, Pickwick, for a throwdown – but it’ is all in good fun!

Campfire Ok recently appeared at  Seattle Living Room /  Melodic Caring Project show. You can read all about it by clicking below.
