Weclome back to Sound Citizen Radio! It’s March Madness time, which means the NCAA tournament and the biggest gambling event of the year. What’s not a gamble, are the three bands featured in this week’s podcast (at the bottom of this post). We have a Detroit band playing their own style of rock, and two rising Chicago bands with a couple of weekend shows.
So, get out there and support these bands. Your bracket will be blown up by day two anyway.
If you want to get your band featured on Sound Citizen Radio, please send an email to soundcitizenmike@gmail.com. Also, feel free to send suggestions, comments, tips, or anything else.
Have a great weekend.
-Mike

Welcome to Sound Citizen Radio!
In our continuous efforts to bring the live music scene straight to you, we decided to launch a podcast – Sound Citizen Radio. Every broadcast, we will talk music and play music. You will hear about the general music scene, the latest happenings on Sound Citizen, shows we went to, shows we are planning to go to, and just about anything else that we think you should know about. This week’s podcast is at the bottom of this post.
And what’s radio without music? We will play some local bands, tell you where to go see them and make some other recommendations of upcoming concerts in the area.
This week, we feature Welcome to Ashley and Moses Cleveland. We also pick three upcoming concerts we think you’ll like and discuss our New Year’s Eve with The Black Keys. So have a listen, go see some music and come back to Sound Citizen for new episodes. (We will get better at this, I promise.)
If you are in a band, manage a band, or are a fan and you want to hear your band on Sound Citizen Radio, send an email to soundcitizenmike@gmail.com with some info and an MP3 or a link where I can download some of their tunes (legally, of course.)
