The mighty Grip Weeds’ How I Won the War, a great musical statement from one of pop and rock’s top bands, releases tomorrow. Tonight, Monday, April 6 at 8 pm ET, Kurt Reil goes behind-the-scenes on the record, nothing less than the band’s career-high, top sonic achievement.
This show takes the soup-to-nuts approach that In Conversation is famous for. Kurt takes listeners through the recording of the album, telling behind-the-scenes stories about the Grip Weeds’ new songs. He even talks about the creation of the package art. You’ll hear what went into the writing and recording of three numbers–“Force of Nature,” with its Who-like intensity; “Life Saver,” a driving power pop tune; and the sweetly-realized number sung by Kristen Pinell, “Over and Over.”
Set your pop ‘n’ roll alarm clocks for tonight, Monday, April 6, at 8 pm ET and get set for an information-filled and quite lively interview with the Grip Weeds’ Kurt Reil. It’s all for you on the latest edition of Pure Pop Radio: In Conversation.
