Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

In 2009 I discovered you could listen to music on the internet (I'm not kidding). Bryce was my first show that I tuned into. He played Martin Denny and Diamanda Galas and then he did an unhinged transition with Billy Jam. I knew this was my place at that moment.

"The Creeping Nobodies began as a one-off performance for a tribute night to the UK band The Fall, and were put together by Derek Westerholm.[1] The tribute night was held on September 21, 2001 at the El Mocambo club in Toronto, and the band name "The Creeping Nobodies" came from the name of a fictitious band mentioned on a Fall record sleeve. Immediately afterwards, the band became its own entity, investigating a wider range of musical influences." wiki
