“When we made it to the garden it was well past nine
Our hands came to agreement as we walked in time
A jealous rose stole a thread from the skirted thigh
I clipped it quick with a flick of the switchblade knife,
of the switchblade knife, of the switchblade knife”

Here is the last video from the first RadioVA session ever, now over six months ago! This is also the last of the videos filmed in the former Sound of Music location on Broad Street. Summer Angel was the second single off of Minus the Bear’s album Omni.

Here is another taste of Drive-By Truckers’ sound check at The National. In this one, we get an Eddie Hinton cover, as sung by Shonna Tucker. Video by Rich Tarbell. This session was made possible by Kulture! Have you subscribed to RadioVA yet?

“I’m trying to keep focused as I drive down the road
On the ditches and the curves and the heavy load
Ain’t bitching bout things that aren’t in my grasp
Just trying to stay focused on the righteous path”

Here is the first tune that The Truckers did at their sound check before night one of their two night stand at The National in Richmond. They dug back to Brighter Than Creation’s Dark for this one. There is much more music to come, including tunes from Cooley and Shonna as well as some rare stuff!

“The best things in life aren’t things
They’re living and breathing
The best things in life aren’t things
They’re something you can believe in
Well, do you believe me
Well, do you believe me when I say

Tonight won’t last for long
Soon it will be gone
But I won’t leave you alone – no, no
Whenever you call me, whenever you need me
Wherever you wander until you see me
I’ll be waiting, I’ll be waiting for you “

Here is the last song from our session with Michael Franti and Spearhead back in August, closing out the first band recording at the new Sound of Music location. Now is a good time to subscribe to RadioVA if you haven’t yet!
