The Radiators are in their 26th year of providing some of the most intense live performances (over 3600 thus far!) of any band on the road today. Their intuitive grasp of each other's moves, coupled with a repertoire of nearly 1300 songs provides a basis for a fresh and spontaneous approach to their music. The Radiators rely on a myriad of musical influences to create their own sound - "Fish Head Music". At a Radiators show it is not uncommon to hear blues, R&B, jazz, country, Zydeco, soul, swing, and even gospel filtering through their original New Orleans Rock N' Roll. During their early years, the band members were able to watch and even play live with many of their local New Orleans heroes. They combined these influences with the rising spirit of sixties rock and R&B to form a new, rhythm-intensive blend of rock and roll. The Radiators have developed into a strong national act, a result of their marathon length live shows and a relentless touring schedule. The Radiators quickly became one of New Orleans' hottest musical acts, then rose to national prominence as their fans spread the word across the country. There are no half measure when it comes to the Radiators. The majority of the tracks are at least six minutes long, and six of them rack up over 10 minutes. None of them ever sound like they are too long, however, which is largely down to the way that the band make their own particular brand of New Orleans music sound interesting. Stylistically the Radiators fuse together elements of funk (New Orleans style, naturally), rhythm and blues, jazz (Steely Dan style) and rock and roll. The end result is something for everybody, and music that will have you tapping your feet, nodding your head, and shaking your booty, or some combination of the three. http://cdbaby.com/cd/radiators
