Kuf Knotz & Christine Elise - Your Next Favorite Band
10/12/23 • 68 min
1 Listener
We are so excited to spend time with Kuf and Christine! Luckily, they'll help us get centered first with some "Intro Mantra" and set the vibe - one of love and positivity.
This duo is putting out some of the best music and most unique sounds around right now. And if you haven't heard the pairing of poetic lyrics and dope beats with soaring vocals and angelic harp then now is the time!
We also will hear how they met and joined forces, and also established the wonderful Higher Grounds Music organization to provide resources and advocate for mental and emotional health and positivity.
In addition to "Intro Mantra", we'll feature "PhiLOVEdelphia", "Be Free" from Musikfest, and we are blessed to share "High Vibrationz" post credits in advance of its release worldwide.

Bandits on the Run - Your Next Favorite Band
This is a hold-up! Now while this group of Bandits only wants to steal your attention and your earholes, you will give it willingly as their music is so incredible with soaring harmonies, stunning orchestrations (of guitar, cello, and a myriad of instruments like accordion) along with touching lyrics - you're sure to get the chills.
Bandits on the Run hail from NYC and include Adrian Blake Enscoe, Regina Strayhorn and Sydney Shepherd. When performing, they take on the "bandit personas" of Roy Dodger, Clarissa the Clairvoyant, and Bonanza Jellyfish respectively.
We will explore their music, which defies all genre and really becomes one of their own, as well as their back story and how they became the Bandits, busking in the NY subway system.
We'll feature "Love in the Underground", "Sing You To Sleep" and they'll perform "You Have Changed" live on the show. AND we'll get to share their upcoming single "Reach Back" a week before its available! Be sure to pre-save now and download when available.
