Sprouts
Sprouts Radio from the Grassroots is a 30-minute weekly program featuring radio programs produced at community radio stations or by other independent producers from across the country and sometimes around the world.
Based in New York City, the 25-piece Hungry March Band describes themselves as “a blazing parade of flesh, blood, steel, brass and wood.” We speak to members of the band about their history, their travels, and of course their music.
Performing at venues as diverse as parades, protests, concert halls, beaches and subway parties, “HMB” is legendary for their anarchic spirit and rousing, Dionysian performance style. The band’s repertoire is fantastically varied, including songs from New Orleans, Indian wedding music, Gypsy/Roma classics, punk, funk, hip-hop & Latin styles.
The show features interviews with band members and selections from Hungry March Band’s latest album, “Portable Soundtracks for Temporary Utopias.” For more information, visit:
