Episode 45 sees us still in January 1923, but on the move... First BBC Director of Programmes Arthur Burrows visits 5IT Birmingham and 2ZY Manchester to see the 2nd and 3rd BBC stations in action - so here's a podcast snapshot of what broadcasting was like in their makeshift studios in British broadcasting's earliest days. Our guest is Jude Montague, whose grandfather Sydney Wright was an early on-air musician in the 2ZY Wireless Trio. And you'll hear the voices of those who were there: Kenneth Wright, Victor Smythe, Percy Edgar, A.E. Thompson... Hear of singers toppling off platforms made of books, as they step back for the big final note. Hear of Manchester beating London to be first station to broadcast Big Ben. And hear of the Grenadier Guards Band, cramming 22 performers into a studio space fit for 3. Jude Montague's website - which will include details of her graphic novel about her grandfather Sydney Wright - is at www.judecowanmontague.com We mention Tim Wander's talk in Writtle on May 17th and the curry dinner he's hosting on May 23rd: https://cses.org.uk/events?task=civicrm/event/info&reset=1&id=368 My play 'The First Broadcast: The Battle for the Beeb in 1922' is on tour all this year, to London, Salford, Devon, Chelmsford and beyond - and bookable for your place. www.paulkerensa.com/tour for dates and tickets.

For episode 44, we go to Holland and go back a few years, to hear of radio pioneer Hanso Idzerda and his Dutch concerts. It's not British broadcasting, but it's British listening - our ancestors could hear his regular broadcasts from 1919 to 1924 - at least if they had a radio set of quality. Gordon Bathgate is a radio history fan and author of Radio Broadcasting: A History of the Airwaves - he guides us through Idzerda's doomed story, in an episode that's less of me, more of him... plus the return of your FMs and AMs - Firsthand Memories of broadcasting in action and an Airwave Memory from Paula Goddard.

Lineups for Thursday through Saturday are still TBA. blackfret.org. Donations: blackfret.org/make-a-donation — P.B. Wednesday: ComboPlate Booking Roster Party. Initially an event scheduled for Guero’s during SXSW, this annual benefit for Caritas of Austin’s food service programs is now set for livestreaming from several of the participating artists’ homes, including Matt the Electrician, Raina Rose, JM Stevens, Curtis McMurtry, Betty Soo, Nathan Hamilton and Beaver Nelson. Dozens of gift cards will be given to anyone who donates $50 or more. 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. facebook.com/comboplatebooking. Donations: southbysoupfest.org. — P.B. Wednesday: Ray Wylie Hubbard. Overshadowed by the world turning upside down late last week was the uniquely bizarre announcement that Wimberley’s own Ray Wylie Hubbard has signed to Nashville major Big Machine Records, home to Tim McGraw, Sugarland, Midland and others. Want proof? Tune into his livestream, which will air at 7 p.m. from, you guessed it, facebook.com/bigmachinerecords. — P.B. Wednesday: Little Mazarn. An Austin360 Artist of the Month in 2019, Little Mazarn is Lindsey Verrill, who plays banjo and sometimes upright bass, with Jeff Johnston, who plays the saw and sometimes bowed glockenspiel. The sound is as intriguing and enchanting as the instrumentation suggests, providing minimal but vital accompaniment for Verrill’s songs full of open space and natural wonder. 7 p.m. facebook.com/littlemazarn. Donations: See streaming site. — P.B. Friday: Emily Gimble. The official Texas State Musician for 2020, Emily followed in the footsteps of her legendary grandfather Johnny Gimble, the pioneering western swing fiddler who was named Texas State Musician in 2003. Gimble’s instrument of choice is piano, and she’s been a regular in local clubs for more than a decade, both on her own and during stints with Warren Hood and Asleep at the Wheel. In a social media post announcing the show, Gimble said she’s “planning on making this a regular thing until the storms clear.” 6 p.m. facebook.com/mlegimble. Donations: Venmo mlegimble; PayPal mlegimble@gmail.com — P.B. Friday-Thursday: Jackie Venson. No stranger to virtual jams, Austin’s guitar ace has been hosting online sessions for fans and followers in her JV Squad Facebook group for over a year. Now, with the coronavirus pandemic leaving much of the country homebound, she’s pledged to drop an internet jam session each night at 9:30 p.m. In addition to singing and playing guitar, she might hop on the piano or treat listeners to tunes from her new Jackie the Robot DJ set. “It’s all on the table now. I mean, last night’s show featured Jackie doing a rendition of ‘Keep On’ on the ukulele,” Venson’s manager (and fiance) Louie Carr said on Tuesday. facebook.com/jackievenson. Donations: paypal.me/jackievenson — D.S.S. Saturday: DJ Mel’s Living Room Dance Party. On March 16, when the South by Southwest Music Festival should have been kicking off but Austinites were hunkered down at home instead, DJ Mel took to the turntables to host the first edition of this virtual body-rock-a-thon. Thousands of viewers from around the country tuned in. Expecting to play for a handful of “Austin homies,” he was “shocked” by the response, he told the Statesman on Sunday afternoon while combing through the 17,000 comments on his Facebook post. He’s decided to make the Saturday night jam a regular affair. The party will kick off at 6 p.m. and run till 10, and to keep the (virtual) event family-friendly, he plans to use radio edits of all your favorite rap tunes. facebook.com/DJ-Mel-48330349120 — D.S.S. RELATED: Thousands tune in to DJ Mel’s virtual dance party Sunday: Jeff Plankenhorn. Not since Junior Brown’s 1990s breakthrough with his “guit-steel” has an Austin-based artist become so specifically associated with a custom-made instrument as Plankenhorn’s trusty “plank,” a Dobro-like contraption. His versatility as a musician has long made him in high demand with acts including Joe Ely and the Resentments, the latter outfit having welcomed him into their fold many years ago for Sunday night shows at the Saxon Pub. With those shows on hold for now amid the coronavirus pandemic, Plankenhorn has staked out some time this Sunday for a virtual show of his own. 8 p.m. facebook.com/events/194330805185995.

Singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, Amanda Abizaid is best known as the captivating vocalist on the theme song "A Place In Time" from Paramount's The 4400, the featured song "Dreams in Ashes" from Lifetime Television's Odd Girl Out, as well as other lead vocal appearances in songs appearing in Smallville, Ed, One Tree Hill, Felicity, and Charmed, and many others. A prodigious live performer, she appears regularly in clubs and concerts around the world. Winner of numerous awards, she is  Amanda also inspires and encourages her fans to respect and value all cultures through their shared love of music to create a more peaceful world society and support women in music. Her most recent album, Walking Two’s has already won awards and her Bollywood Remix single will be released shortly West Texas-born Sydney Wright grew up learning and loving music, crafting songs and amping up her skills as a performer as a teen playing country and rock. She developed her stunning performing skills with an impressive knack for looping tracks during live performances  with a huge voice that often gets her compared to Florence and the Machine and Sara Bareilles.  Post-college, in 2015, after recording at the famous Sonic Ranch Studios in El Paso, Wright moved  to Austin and took up sound engineering in town. But she also started performing,  making her way through venues as a formidable, usually solo, performer.  A hit-and-run accident put her in the hospital for 10 weeks, but with the help of  Health Alliance for Austin Musicians she has fully recovered and is back playing and recording, launching an indigogo site, creating stunning videos and, of course,  sound engineering.     

What a weekend! We had the honor of attending the ACL Festival this year with our podcast, and the double honor of interviewing our friend Sydney Wright.   The Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM) invited us to their program, 'How HAAM Saves Lives' and we took that opportunity to talk to Sydney about her recovery from a hit and run accident earlier this year.   Sydney is all heart and her talents always shine through. We're so happy to see her getting back to what she loves to do. In fact, she will be releasing her album 'Seiche' on November 9 at Cheer Up Charlies. Be there!   We started off the episode with a recap of our ACL experience before moving on to the Sydney interview (18:47). Keep listening til the end to hear Sydney's new single, 'Time of Night'.   And if you're a local musician, be sure to check in with HAAM when open enrollment begins on November 1.    #bionicleg #myhaam

loop-pedal pop artist and Austin-based sound engineer, Sydney Wright. She releases her new single, "Time of Night" from he upcoming albumSeiche, today via idobi radio. Listen to the single HERE. Follow up to “You Can Stay” (August 2017), “Tip” (July 2018) and video, “Seiche” (May 2018), the single are from her upcoming album Seiche, due out November 9, 2018. Between her latest releases, Wright endured a harrowing experience on June 30, 2018: ahit and run accident in downtown Austin. Surviving several severe injuries and surgeries. including four rods in her right leg, screws in her ankle, a wrist splint, a compound ankle fracture, broken tibia, multiple wrist and lumbar fractures, Wright is still pressing on and releasing music throughout the Fall. After the accident, the Austin community came to her side. Wright was approached by The Health Alliance for Austin Musicians, and her friends and family started a Go Fund Me. Cheer Up Charlie’s, where Wright ran sound primarily is hosting a benefit show on September 29; Wanderlust, where she ran sound and booked Live Music Classes, hosted a benefit class in August. "It’s about Denton, Texas, where I graduated college. I met my best friends there. We went so hard, we were good at turning the weekday cares into that weekend flare,” Wright says of the song. There’s a powerful sense of peace and pure happiness in “Time of Night”. The synths move you and the (heart)beats skip as the vocals float overhead. “‘Time of Night’ is after the bars closed when we would stay out and keep visiting under the stars and streetlights on the town square.”  

Check out the 23rd installment of The Say It Loud Podcast featuring incredible local singer/songwriter Sydney Wright. Matt Jones and Fair City Fire talked with Sydney about the magic of tasteful looping, Erykah Badu, Halloween, etc. We got delightfully weird.

Join Matt Jones and Fair City Fire as we sat down with Sydney Wright and talked about her new Indiegogo campaign for her upcoming album "Seiche". We talked a ton about that, crowdfunding in general, pajama parties and so much more.
