And no, I don't mean people in Montpelier. Big city types. Like New York City-based online radio station BreakThruRadio.com, for example.

The station just posted a 70-plus minute show, "Spotlight on the City: Burlington, VT," featuring a slew of great local acts, including My First Days on Junk, Crinkles, Nuda Veritas, The Smittens, Villanelles and quite a few others. There's also a nifty Ryan Power remix courtesy of Mike Device right around the 62-minute mark. Aaaaand, a remarkable group (or maybe just one dude?) that's completely new to me, Paul & the Mystery of Gravity. I think might have a new local favorite.
