Apr 6 2008 - 10:00am Apr 6 2008 - 12:00pm Gene Eugene was the frontman for the funk-rock band Adam Again. He was also one of the founding members of the gospel/Americana supergroup Lost Dogs. In addition to this, he was a producer, engineer, and instrumentalist who worked with such artists at Over the Rhine, Richard Swift, Randy Stonehill, and Michael Knott. He was also the owner of the Green Room studio in Huntington Beach, CA (he died there in his sleep on 3/20/2000). On this tribute show, you'll hear lots of Lost Dogs songs as well as some Adam Again songs (including covers of Bill Withers, Leonard Cohen, and the Beatles). There will also be some covers of Gene's songs, and interviews by two of the surviving Lost Dogs, Mike Roe and Derri Daugherty (also of, respectively, the 77's and the Choir). The show begins at 10 am PST on KAOS and will broadcast until noon. You can hear it online here. If you miss the show, it will be available online in the near future.
