WMBR Special Events Calendar This Month

The Wheels (featuring Jabe Beyer) and Kelleigh Bannen Join WMBR's 3 Ring Circus Program

Was aired on the program: Friday, May 22, 2009
4:00pm - 5:30pm

In 2007, Jabe Beyer (JABE, Benders) won the BMI Music Maker Songwriting Competition and was nominated for two Boston Music Awards as well as a nomination in the WFNX Best Music Poll. His namesake band, JABE, won the Abe Oleman Songwriting Award from The Songwriting Hall of Fame as well as Boston Music Awards. Four self-produced, self-released albums along with extensive U.S. and European tours earned JABE a reputation as one of Boston's best and hardest working live acts. The Boston Globe hailed JABE as "a leader in the roots music renaissance," and Jam Magazine listed the 2-disc album 'Drama City' at Number 2 in their Best 100 Albums of The Last 10 Years. He has also worked as a sideman guitarist and keyboard player, touring & performing with Kris Delmhorst, Todd Thibaud, Dennis Brennan, Sarah Borges, Bow Thayer, and many more. He's been living in Nashville the last year or so and returns with a new band, The Wheels. He is also touring with Kelleigh Bannen who Beyer will bring along to the studio at around 5PM. They are in the area performing a series of shows, including the Lizard Lounge the next night, May 23, with Rex Complex.

Location: 88.1 FM
