From The Year 2003: How Would You Categorize These Tucson Bands?

September 15, 2016 By Jamie Manser 8 Comments

I’m working on a grad class projekxci_logo_redct for LIS 515 – Information Organization – and I am dedicating my studies to KXCI. The first assignment is to: “identify a collection of resources that (a) you are very familiar and knowledgeable (b) need to be (better) organized (c) has a community of users who wish to access the resources.”

Amanda Shauger thought KXCI’s Locals Only would be a good fit. She was right.

But, I am not totally “familiar and knowledgeable” with all of the bands listed below. If you are, I would be appreciative of your  input on the genres, musicians, album names, if you know them – please list all of those aspects in the comments section!

Thanks to Don Jennings, the amazingly awesome decade+ long DJ of Locals Only for providing the list below of his interviews.

To keep things manageable, we’re focusing on the last six months of 2003.

        If you wanted the actual members who performed on Locals Only, David Williams was on drums. Mike Herman was their previous drummer.

      Thanks so much Justin! If people are searching for specific music genres, what would you say LCB falls under? Like – rockabilly, rock, punkabilly, etc.? Other genres you can think of?

    Here’s a blurb for The Carnivaleros:

    The Carnivaleros combine moody Eastern European motifs, western movie themes, and stories of our shared American experience with strains of Zydeco rhythms, Tex-Mex polkas, and swing.
