Gettin' our rockabilly groove on with The Americans phoning it in from a bedroom in Venice, CA. Fronted by former KDVS blues DJ Patrick Ferris, plus Jake Faulkner on upright bass and Zac Sokolow on guitar and banjo, this band creates a little parlor-shaped time machine with their greaser haircuts, Wranglers and classic sound.

This show was our first experimentation with a Google Voice transmission, so the audio is especially wonky. Michael Leahy hopped on at the end for some one-on-one folk radio love.
