Hitting the airwaves across the nation is the rock band Transistor Radio. The band has only been together 3 years, but their unique sound has given them a jump start in the music business.

Transistor Radio is a band from southern California and was originally formed in 2004. But over the years band members have come and gone due to personal reasons, and conflicting interests concerning the goals of the band. Guitarist and percussionist Guy Bravo, and drummer Jordan Heid are the only two original band members. In the past year and a half Bravo and Heid have been joined by talented new members Andrew Galbreath (bassist), Jamesdon Kissling (singer), and Sam Moreno (guitarist).

Recently Transistor Radio toured with Procella to raise awareness and money for the Feed Just One charity. They rocked the crowd and educated them about the 800 million starving people in our world today. On their tour they also promoted their new CD entitled, A Legacy Between.

The band describes their music as pop rock. “We want to have popular music,” said Bravo. Our music is less about the style…we’d rather just hang out with people… our goal is to reach as many people as we can.”

Their band name was inspired by their goal. “A radio is used to broadcast a message to many people… our band has a message and that message is of God’s love,” said Galbreath. Still this doesn’t mean that Transistor Radio’s music comes close to the gospel genre. Their music still keeps its edge and popularity while spreading a positive message.

Michael Fortney has been a fan of Transistor Radio since they first began. He first heard the band attending a Number One Gun concert. “The band was really nice and they gave me a free CD,” said Fortney. Ever since then he has been a fan. “I like their unique sound and the fact that they aren't afraid to share their faith and their amazing lyrics.” Fortney says he has seen them live countless times and they are an, “AMAZING live band; one of the best.”

Transistor Radio is planning a shorter tour in December and then to hit the road again with the band Wavorly in January / February of next year. More information regarding this amazing upcoming band and their tours can be found at Transistor Radio’s website www.myspace.com/transistorradio.
