STRICTLY GLOBAL

Bagels, rebellious children, and graffiti galore... these are the going ons' on the set of Strictly Global this week, as Danni Rosner hosts from the green room of Jammin Java.  Bryan Dawley, guitarist for the curly girl's band, stopped by to do a little dance, as Danni and I persistently quoted Billy Madison, and pointed out the variety of artists written on the wall that have graced our airwaves via music videos and interviews over the past 200+ episodes... breathe. Wow!  I thought I was your snack pack.

Speaking of snack packs, we have a variety of "kid" stories throughout the hour. Including the band Kicking Daisies, comprised of 13 to 16 years olds, and apparently the worlds fastest female drummer?  And then there's Raul Antonio, who's father (famous for the group Los Tigres Del Norte) was completely adamant about having his children be a part of the music industry.  Gees, that sucks.  Raul snuck off to Barcelona to go to music school, and his first video will premiere this Friday- so, in your face dad!  What a weird-o!

And with the ever popular SxSW fest coming up (yes-I really want to go, field trip please?), you can be sure to be seeing boatloads of videos from artists hitting those stages in the coming months.  Like this week, we have a video from the British up and comer Dan Black, who's album ((un)) will be out Feb. 16.  The video is rad, trekking through the variety of cinema styles over the last millennium, though Billy Madison references didn't make the cut.  He's gonna be a soccer player... he is, he i-i-i-is...
