Today I had the pleasure of sitting down with Shawn Lacy and Hobby Weiss from The Shawn and Hobby Band.  They’re two of the five members of a young band out of Nashville and they’re in town this weekend for three gigs and a screening of a documentary based on the band called “Radio On: The Shawn and Hobby Band Documentary”.  Steve Condon, a local filmaker and friend of WMMR, directed the documentary and also manages the band.  I asked Shawn and Hobby about their sound, what it’s like to be in a young and up and coming rock band, about the documentary, and they play a song acoustic.  If you want to see them live they’ll play tonight (Friday) at 9:30pm at JD McGillicuddy’s in Manayunk, tomorrow (Saturday) at 10pm at Matthews Bar in Norwood, and Sunday at 2:30pm at the Conway Ranch Music Fest in Bethel.  The documentary will screen tonight at 7pm at the Media Theater in Media, PA.  You can find all the information on their website at www.SHBMusic.com.   Take a listen!

 

Cheers,
