SMI Radio Ep. 52 On Demand: Andrew Vait (Eternal Fair) / The Good Hurt

By Greg Roth on February 28, 2012@WeRideWhy

After a week off SMI Radio returns with a brand new episode featuring two stellar Pacific Northwest bands. These two groups shared the stage this past Saturday night at Seattle’s High Dive. In the first half of the show I speak with past SMI Radio guest Andrew Vait.

When I spoke to Andrew after his moving performance at the EQC Taste of Tacoma, he we talked about his other project, Eternal Fair. They are back with a brand new record and the gig last Friday celebrated the release of Eternal Fair’s most recent effort. I speak to Andrew about the new record and what is next for the group. In addition, I will feature selected cuts from the new release.

In the second half of the show, I speak with guitarist and vocalist James Lanman and drummer Aaron Ameen from The Good Hurt, As I mentioned, they shared the stage with Eternal Fair this past Saturday. I talk to them about their influence and their trip down to Southern California for the 2012 NAMM Convention. I will also feature some tracks off of their most recent album, “You Are Here.”
