(Interview with Marcus Monroe.) RRX: How are you? MM: I’m doing well man. I just had a late night last night at The Comedy Cellar. So I’m just kind of starting my day at noon, which is kind of normal for me. RRX: Well I’ve spent some time watching your videos online and I love […]
If you were alive and around in the Albany environs in the turn of the eighties, you might have gone to a sonic bunker of a place called J.B. Scott’s. Owned by Douglas Jacobs and Vinnie Birbiglia, this nightclub had a list of bands go through that would, at the same time be chewing through […]
(Interview with Melissa Ferrick.) RRX: Hello. How has your morning been? MF: So far so good. RRX: I’m excited just to talk with you. I don’t really like to do “interviews,” I think they’re boring so my style is just to chat. Everybody else does that, they just plug away all of the questions and […]
When people think about the music that’s come from the Glens Falls region of the 518 music scene, they most likely think of rock bands like Wild Adriatic and Capital Zen. However, there is one person who has been making massive progress toward changing that perception to include Rap and Hip Hop, and that’s the […]

And in my view, hip hop […]
What do Conan O’Brien, The Simpsons, and Mike Trash have in common? Apparently, a band name. The Erotics are Albany’s home-grown answer to The Andrews Sisters. They’re not only prettier, but they play rock and roll like nobody’s business. Clever, irreverent lyrics growled over classic rock riffs, their songs are all orgasm and no foreplay. […]
RRX: MIke Skill is one of the founders of The Romantics and has a brand new record coming out called “Skill……Mike Skill” Mike: That’s right. I felt it was time to actually get my name out there and display what I’ve got. A lot of people call me “Skill” anyway. RRX: And everybody calls me […]
