Sebastian Giro-Martin is WUVT's resident audio-aficionado and production staffhead. If you've ever noticed how great our shows sound, this is the man to thank. Production is not only vital to WUVT's success, but also an art -- and there's no one better at it than Sebastian.
ROANOKE LOCAL AND LIFELONG MUSICIAN, AMANDA BOCCHI, tells her story of battling opioid addiction and navigating motherhood. As a fierce recovery advocate, Amanda has not allowed her traumatic experiences to consume her, but rather
transformed her past into artwork that lends hope to the future. Her graceful lyrics provide insight into the tragedies of grief, the intricacies of falling in love, and both the pain and triumphs of overcoming an addiction.

Bob Junior delivers us our first taste of his introduction to the indie pop scene with his debut album, Friends Vol. 1. This album provides artists an opportunity to shine, as well as hear some very fun production choices from Mr. Junior such as 8-bit drum patterns and slidewhistles. Overall, a very pleasant record to listen to!

The only thing I love about Thursdays is WUVT's new music reviews!

Genre: Grrrl / Alt / Punk
For Fans Of: Bikini Kill, Wednesday, Sleater-Kinney, Chastity Belt

Truly raw and beautiful album that questions love and femininity and abandonment. Tracks 3, 4, 7, and 10 are softer, whereas FCC are hardest, and leftovers are a good mix. I DO NOT recommend saying this band name on air, although it's so fucking awesome. Try a fun substitute, like Mannequin Kitty, Mannequin Vagina, Mannequin P-Word, etc. Some tracks remind me of Turnstile pacing and riffs (track 9), and of course there's some obvious riot grrrl influence too. Def listen to FCCs and front to back on your own time!
