EPISODE 2021.04 – Rain Tea

Try you a cup of rain tea.

PLAY ⏯ REW ⏮ FWD ⏭ is a “songwriter’s mixtape” from J Oscar.

The monthly Facebook livestream episodes each features 3 songs – present (PLAY), past (REW) and new (FWD) and is the “more considered” companion project to weekly, on Thursday, “Freewheelin’ w/J Oscar”.

Songs are drawn from pandemic enforced digging through boxes of tapes, photos, lyric sheets, band posters, notes and other writings. Shows include live performances, videos, stories plus “show and tell”.

“Archival recordings” from past bands – Pillar of Fire, The Folk Bros. Oxter/Mahone, Dublin Station, and others – will get a hearing, and perhaps, in not too distant future, live guests.
