soulBlog: Feralcat Interview + Album Release; Announcement of Vine Rewind Festival

Feralcat

Roger “Feralcat” Romero released his EP in a joint billing with Starship Mantis on 6/1/19. I’ve been following him for the past few months, and asked for an interview to coincide with the release. So, The Soul Show’s interview segments are presented here, but you may want to listen to the entire uncut tape, also below, that includes a discussion about the musical emergences of his siblings Hansel and Allan.

Vine Rewind Festival

Tim Gaber, proprietor of Pittsburgh Winery, sent the promo materials for the Strip District festival that’s just outside his Penn Avenue establishment. Highlights include the return of Jasmine Tate, who started her career in Pittsburgh, then moved to TX. Also, there’s this group called “Beni’s Gospel Brunch w/Steeltown Horns,” which hints of B. Rossman, who will be there with his Starship Mantis. Lyndsey Smith returns for Vine Rewind as well, so I’m expecting something amazing like what we saw at the 6/1/19 SM Album Release (see yesterday’s soulBlog). Byron Nash will be there as well.

Here’s some madness from last year:
