Apologizes to Andrea and Lisa for the super-hot and sadly distorted recording of the interviews. :( The LIVE performances sound good.
For our 257th Hunnypot Radio show, we packed the house with an awesome line-up of guest DJs and musicians alike. As per usual, Hot Tub Johnnie got us movin’ and groovin’ with his set featuring new favorites from Piney Gir, Clubfeet, Chela, Prince Sole, Trinity Gold, Johnny Ringo and more.
Following Hot Tub Johnnie, we had our guest DJ for the night, Andrea von Foerster (Firestarter Music) dazzle us with her set of new favorites, including but not limited to: Ellifant, Flume, Clean Bandit, Man Without Country, Icona Pop and more. Thanks for a very entertaining set Andrea!
After Andrea’s set, we were treated to a special interview and live performance from Lisa Loeb, who has a new album available for pre-order now! Loeb showcased her new tunes for us, but made sure to satisfy our craving for the classic “Stay” that helped launch her career in the mid-90s. Very much a tribute to the 90s, her new album No Fairy Tale, co-produced by Chad Gilbert of New Found Glory is a fresh compilation that shows us just how diverse and well-rounded her talents really are. For more info on Loeb’s new tour dates and happenings, click HERE.
Following Lisa Loeb, the funky tribe that is The James Douglas Show brought some serious energy to the stage. I’m pretty sure that every person in the room couldn’t help but move their feet and dance with us. Not only did they bring the funk/R&B vibe, they brought an infectious party to the stage.
Following JDS, our new friends in Electrik People brought some fresh new music to the stage. It’s hard to follow a huge band that brings energy like JDS, but if anyone was up for the challenge, it was these guys. Not skipping a beat, they kept the party going with their electro indie tunes, reminiscent of 80s pop with a contemporary electronic twist. To learn more about these guys, visit their page HERE.
Finally, just when we thought the party was over, the electricity continued to flow with a special performance from Electro Horse. Theses guys hung in there and kept the dance floor moving into the early hours of the morning.
All in all, it was another amazing show put together by the incredible Hunnypot Unlimited team. Huge thanks to everyone that came out to support, everyone that performed, and both the Central SAPC and Hunnypot crews. We couldn’t make it all happen without each and every one of you!

LISA LOEB
In 1994 when Lisa Loeb's breakout song, "Stay (I Missed You)," landed at No. 1 on the charts, it was a remarkable and unparalleled feat for an unsigned artist. Though perhaps not a surprising one for the recent Brown grad, the girl with the cat-eye glasses, who at the time was already making her mark in New York's burgeoning singer-songwriter scene. Lisa's skills are not limited to her singer/songwriter capabilities, in fact one of her most impressive assets is her versatility. She's released a children's album, had her own reality show, appeared on sitcoms and also recorded voice-overs for film, TV and video games. Lisa will be stepping in the Hot Tub for a very special performance in support of her new album No Fairy Tale.
