Description

This week we are joined by Leanor "Jeff the Girl" Ortega Till of Five Iron Frenzy. Chris and Leanor break down the catchy Electric Avenue by Eddy Grant; the song recently was in the news for being another song Trump has used against an artists wishes. We also dive into this songs origins are about race based riots in the UK, how Eddy Grant created his own genre and an amazing story of Five Iron Frenzy's tour in South Africa.

Join musician Chris Fafalios (Punchline, Another Cheetah, Pack) as he listens to different one hit wonders with a revolving door of guests (including his bandmates and/or people from bands that he has toured with). After listening to the back catalog of the week's artist, they decide if the artist is a one hit blunder (shouldn't have had any success) or brought the one hit thunder (deserved to be much bigger than they were).
