Radioboxer fights their way into LocalR's heart=)

Wednesday, Im outside of the studio, on the lookout for Vane and Jota Dazza of Radioboxer for our on air interview and acoustic set. Surely enough, I see Vanessa's lovely mane bouncing up and down as she and Jota make their way up the stairs of FIU's Graham Center. I wasn't greeted by the standard 'hey, what's up' and a hand shake but instead warm embraces from both parts of the lovely duo. That's what I think makes the band so amazing and why they have such an enormous following, they have limitless love to give. Radioboxer branded themselves as 'bi-polar pop' because sometimes their music is very soft and sentimental and sometimes it is on the harder side. Throughout the spectrum of this emotionally unstable set of songs, they are all filled with passion. While off the air and playing some Humbert, Lavola and others, we had great conversation which included the injuries that Vanessa gets during shows and the bald-spots that she gives Jota. Apparently she gets so intense during shows that she ends up getting tendonitis and ripping out Jota's hair out of passion.. or so she says.. When the two played their acoustic set, which included 'don't shoot at me' from their debut album, radiodrama, it was not only one of the most intimate musical experiences that I'd ever had the pleasure taking a part in, but they were just as good live as they are on their album.
During the show, we kept on announcing that we had two albums to give away to some lucky callers. For most of the show, not one call... but as soon as we went off air, the phone went off! There were a few disappointed fans who were too late and some who just called in to share their love and of course our two winners, Romney and Suzie who won a signed copy of their new album Magic City Ruse.
My point is, not only is this band great, but a great bunch with loving hearts and it was such a pleasure meeting them!
Stay tuned for a Local Radiation local music summer bash (with Radioboxer and of course, other great S FL bands) and keep it locked every Wednesday to hear all of our other guests give their all from our humble little studio at FIU.
NEXT WEEK: Hymin!!
