Get ready to crank the volume and clear some space. This week’s episode of Strike The Box! on WaveRadio Boston is a full-throttle, freeform dive into the heart of garage rock, past and present.
We’re serving up a plethora of new music from the most exciting bands tearing up the scene right now, including the raw energy of Huck 2, the gritty riffs of The Airport 77s, the explosive sound of Slamdinistas, and the catchy hooks of The Needmores.
But we don’t stop there. This isn’t just a glimpse into the future; it’s a full-blown tour through the history of Rock N’ Roll. We’re connecting the dots across six decades, spinning everything from forgotten 45s to iconic anthems that all share one thing: unadulterated, high-energy passion.
Strike The Box! is your weekly mission to explore sound. It’s chaotic, it’s curated, and it’s everything you love about guitar-driven music.
Tune in to discover your new favorite band and rediscover why you fell in love with rock and roll in the first place.
