Eight One Sixty W/ Chris Haghirian

On this week's episode of the Eight One Sixty, we celebrate KC music from the '90s. This show was a lot of fun to put together — digging through hard drives, looking up old articles and blog posts, and scouring through YouTube and Discogs. Things are weird right now, but maybe we can give you a brief moment of escape, to sit back and enjoy some KC music from a couple decades ago. We'll hear from these bands: The Appleseed Cast — still active and making beautiful noises Frogpond — lead singer Heidi Phillips is still making music Mates of State — they now call Connecticut home The Get Up Kids — still active and put out a great album, "Problems," last year The Gadjits — featuring the Phillips brothers from The Architects, Brandon Phillips and The Condition and Other Americans Mongol Beach Party — featuring musicians now active in bands like Victor & Penny, The Band That Fell To Earth KC, Miss Boating and more Shiner — still active and just released an amazing new album, "Schadenfreude" Season to R
