FM co-hosts garner a Bohemian “Best”
Singled out for appreciation in the North Bay Bohemian’s annual “Best of” issue last month were the co-hosts of one of KRCB-FM’s home-grown late night music programs. And we quote: “Best Way to Rock with the Neighbors.” Pillow Storm, the weekly radio show on KRCB-FM hosted by Josh Staples and Josh Drake, is the best thing to happen to Wednesday nights since Adult Skate. Drake and Staples feature blocks of music, a local musical guest and snarky and silly commentary. Listeners might get a 10-minute-long treatise from Staples on the ’90s Petaluma crust-punk band Lung-butter or possibly an extended rant from Drake about how much he hates hiking and loathes AC/DC. Ah, public radio.The show began in 2010, an offspring of the show called Left of the Dial. Staples says it’s the only indie—and alternative-rock show on the station, and though it showcases music from all over, the Joshes shine the spotlight squarely on local bands, which means a chance to hear local music that might push your cool meter up a few notches. Pillow Storm airs Wednesdays, 10 pm - midnight.
