No Live artist performance audio available :(
After an incredible anniversary show, the Hunnypot crew brought the heat with yet another amazing show to kick off our new year. With guest DJ sets by Tyler Barth of Blue Microphones, and Trygge Toven Music Supervisor and Producer at Vidsyn, the Central SAPC in Santa Monica was the place to be!
Hot Tub Johnnie got us started like he always does with a solid new track from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis "Thrift Shop (Feat. Wanz)." An impressive set of current artists like Gosteffects and Teenage Bottlerocket followed. My favorite track would have to have been the collaboration between Iggy Pop and Best Coast's Bethany Constantino, "Let's Boot and Rally."
Tyler Barth was our first guest DJ, and brought some fantastic picks like Blacklight Dinner Party, The Mowgli's and LA based Alt-J to name a few. We loved having him on to talk about what's going on over at our favorite Blue Microphones.
Mr. Trygge Toven brought out a killer set of new and upcoming tracks that had the venue groovin as well. A few highlights were PHOX's "Sister", Chet Faker's "I'm Into You" and Todd Terje's "Swing Star Part 2".
Our live show was insane with an extremely high energy performance from Peachcake. From the feather boa accents on stage, to the goggles and white shag vest adorning the frontman, we couldn't turn away from the stage. We are so glad they were able to join us all the way from Arizona, great set.
Last, but CERTAINLY not least, we were entertained by the entrancing harmonies of The Young Romans. This guy-girl duo knows exactly what they're doing. Complimenting each other on keys and guitar, the vocal collaboration between these two was incredible. If you missed them, make sure to check out their latest video that scored a spot on our HP Video Pick segment of the website.
We hope you were out there on the front lines with us, but if you weren't, make sure to be there next week for our 253rd Hunnypot Radio Show at the Central SAPC! Much love to the Hunnypot crew for putting in the blood, sweat and tears it takes to make it all happen. 11/19/2012

THE YOUNG ROMANS
This indie, folk pop duo formed in Los Angeles in the spring of 2010 after Brad Hooks and Sari Mellafe met through mutual friends who pointed out the complimentary style of their vocals and tastes in music. The two formed a quick bond and started writing together making piano and guitar focused music that was at once organic, yet big in nature and showcases both of their voices together in harmony. The duo signed with producer and label owner Jim Roach of Red Parade Music in 2010. Since signing The Young Romans have seen great success, including their song "Where You Go" being featured as the end-title track in the film Salmon Fishing In The Yemen. Their debut full-length album Tiger Child was released in early 2012 and features the iTunes "Single of the Week" and title track "Tiger Child".
