iHearIC Radio - Episode 16: March Concert Preview (03/25/2018)

Hey folks, this is a short one as everyone in the iHearIC inner circle was busy at the Composers' Workshop concert at Voxman (program here if you're interested: https://uiowa.edu/cnm/cnm/cnm/cnm/concert-season-52/concert-15-0).

Tonight's show was a quick preview of the performers gracing us with their art at this Friday's iHearIC concert at the Java House in downtown Iowa City. The show starts at 8pm and we'd love to see you there! Here's the facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/601537416848409

In case you miss this week's concert, tune in to the radio show next week (7pm Sunday on KRUI - 89.7FM if you're nearby and using a radio, krui.fm to stream online) to hear a few recorded selections.

After this week, we'll have two more concerts this season:
April 20, 8PM at The High Ground Cafe
May 5, 2PM, location TBA

iHearIC Radio - Episode 14: History (03/11/2018)

Today I dug deep in the iHearIC archive to play some recordings from the early years of our concert series. Things from that era aren't as thoroughly documented as our recent activities, so please let me know if I missed anything important! ihearic@gmail.com is the best way to get in touch. I'd love to get my hands on more recordings from 2009-2012 iHearIC shows if you happen to have something sitting around on an old hard drive.

Tune in next week for our first in-studio live performance from WOMBAT.

We'll have three more concerts this season:
March 30, 8PM at The Java House (Downtown)
April 20, 8PM at The High Ground Cafe
May 5, time TBA, exact outdoor location TBA

iHearIC Radio - Episode 13 with Ian, Lukas, and Nico of Soul Sherpa (03/04/2018)

Tonight at the KRUI studio, Carlos and I talked with three members of Soul Sherpa: bassist Ian Draves, drummer Lukas Jack, and guitarist Nico Luerkens. We discussed their upcoming album, Same Wave Train, releasing this Tuesday with a release party this Friday at The Mill. We also discussed the two years leading up to their first full length album, what they've been up to since recording it, and what they'll be doing this year!

Ian also streamed our time in the studio on Facebook live: https://www.facebook.com/soulsherpaband/videos/1976424359275116/?hc_ref=ARQt6nAxH44uSOAzDrGYp3c1sexX_IJZvnlV0Li074yuAtf-mCHgk8_2wvmZzpg_WEs

iHearIC Radio - Episode 11: February Concert Preview (02/11/2018)

Carlos is back as a regular co-host! We organize the concerts together so it makes sense for him to join me in the studio too. This episode starts out with a preview of our upcoming concert (Feb. 23, 8pm, High Ground Cafe) and then moves on into a smattering of different selections. NO radio show next Sunday as I am spending the week in Texas. Next episode will air on Feb 25 - time TBA as I'll be at the Béla Fleck concert at our regular time. Keep an eye on our social media for schedule changes.

Here's the current plan for this season of concerts:
February 23, 8PM at The High Ground Cafe (https://www.facebook.com/events/142582209770294/)
March 30, 8PM at The Java House (Downtown)
April 20, 8PM at The High Ground Cafe
May 5, time TBA, exact outdoor location TBA

iHearIC Radio - Episode 10 with Carlos Cotallo Solares and Will Yager (02/04/2018)

I (Justin) am back in town so I recorded a show with iHearIC co-host Carlos Cotallo Solares and our bass-playing pal Will Yager. We listened to some of their recordings and discussed improvisation, which seems to be a recurring subject on this show (check out the Christine Burke interview on episode 8). We talked about twitter a lot in this one, so be sure to follow us: @ihearic, @justinkcomer, @willyager. Tweet a bunch of hashtags that are too long at us.

Here's the current plan for this season of concerts:
February 23, 8PM at The High Ground Cafe
March 30, 8PM at The Java House (Downtown)
April 20, 8PM at The High Ground Cafe
May 5, time TBA, exact outdoor location TBA
