If there was ever an artist who qualified as RFB "boundary spanners" it might just be The Belle Curves.
From crafting songs that would be at home on Hurdy Gurdy Songs, to covering songs by an artist that Sitting With Gianluca: Lively Conversation & Music frequently mentions, to appearing as guests on Lost & Rewound and attending RFB Presents shows The Belle Curves are what community, and community radio, are all about.
Our show on March 15th features four tracks by The Belle Curves that were recorded exclusively for The Rodent Hour as part of our newly launched Rodent Sessions series.
Rounding out the playlist is new music by VOLK, Beebe Gallini, Ruby Bones, Sun Mahshene, Oceanator, Jennels, Animal Years, Ashrr plus Karen & The Sorrows and if that's not enough for you you'll also get to hear what a living legend says about one of the songs that The Belle Curves recorded.

The Rodent Hour is an homage to the friends that Matt Attack made during his misspent youth, those lifelong friends who joined him on those weekend nights so many years ago and whose eclectic tastes still influence the selection of artists and music that is featured on the show.
Fifteen years after arriving in Brooklyn he continues to be a tireless advocate for the independent musicians that still play with the ferocity and intensity he grew up listening to.
