SEA MONSTER RADIO EPISODE #16
The sun has been poking out from behind the clouds this month, inspiring a show full of upbeat fun and funky original music featuring bands and musicians that perform at the SEA MONSTER LOUNGE.
The infinite awareness that currently embodies the flesh known as Alexander Wayne Anderson arrived in Oceanside, California October 4th, 1993. Born to Jamaican parents who immigrated to New York in the mid 1980’s, Jamaican music and culture was the foundation of his musical development. Alexander came to Sea Monster on tour several years ago and I loved his CD THE ETERNITY OF BEING! You can find him here

Dichotomy in a partnership is always tricky, but not for Seattle’s Fly Moon Royalty. Bleeding with all the heart and soul of blues and r&b, combined with the contemporary aesthetics of modern day electronica and hip hop, the collaboration of the Seattle-based duo is a perfectly fitting contradiction.
Comprised of soulful vocalist, Adra Boo and DJ/Producer/Emcee Action J, this duo opened for our PRINCE tribute several years ago at the FREMONT FAIR. Check out their song BACK TO YOU off their debut album. https://www.facebook.com/FlyMoonRoyalty
