NPR Interview with David Dye from XPN in Philly
hey guys- so remember my blog about playing live on WXPN in philly before our show that night with turin brakes. (if you don’t check it out here – click this link and scroll down till you find it cos this will be good background for what was going on.) so anyway, this was our FIRST ever live performance as a band on the radio and it was early and it was fun but it was pretty sloppy. wrong notes abound (gotta love me hitting the wrong note in monterey) but that’s the magic of being live. i still can’t thank the station and david enough for giving us the opportunity to play – they are a HUGE HUGE reason we have such a great fan base in the philly area. thanx again and i hope you enjoy this rare stream.
F.TEN
ps – i would also like to thanx our fans from philly for making me aware of this – (ie bill walsh who sent me the link) and for all the positive feedback
yo Fran! haven’t checked the blog in a while, but lo and behold, another mention of Philly and your many fans here! i’m happy to be in that group! i want to say AGAIN how great it was meeting all of you at the show, and how much i personally appreciate you keeping in touch, and keeping it real, without the rockstar BS! Your comments, and West Indian Girl’s story, continues to inspire and motivate me to continue pursuing music, and keep positive, creative people in my life. You never know when the connection’s going to happen, right? anyways, i ramble.
ALL WHO READ THIS:
West Indian Girl is more than music. It’s a contagious energy that makes you see the goodnees in life and the potential greatness of the next step.
F10, any new news on some stuff?

hey lonnie – thanks a lot for the super sweet compliments. personally, i wasn’t into how david dye mispronounced my name. i mean, markeen? come on now. and just note it was nine in the morning and my voice doesnt normally sound that manly and heinous. needless to say i wasn’t very happy with the outcome. i guess you can say we here at west indian girl hold high standards for ourselves and each other as performers. we actually performed in detroit awhile back at the majestic. it’s a shame you missed that performance.
lots of love to you and yours…
zontobi – 🙂
