Rob the Viking, Madchild & Prevail @BTedmonton
If it’s a “rock star move” to party into the wee morning hours after a gig, it must be a rap star move to roll that momentum into the next day for an appearance on Breakfast Television. Our whole team was thrilled to welcome Swollen Members Madchild, Prevail and Rob the Viking to Thursday’s show just hours after their sold-out show in Edmonton.
A few years back, the Vancouver-based artists were racking up Junos and Much Music Awards, earning rave reviews from coast to coast. Then…they seemed to drop off the map. No wonder so many of our BT viewers emailed in asking where the boys had been. Click here to check out their candid talk on what took them out of the game for so long (and how good it feels to be recording and touring again).
As you’ll see by their live performance on BT, Swollen Members are as strong as ever. Look for Madchild and Prevail’s EPs on iTunes right now along with their new album – “Beautiful Death Machine” – out this summer.
Thanks to Swollen Members for the early morning appearance…and for keeping it so classy behind the scenes. A truly memorable morning for all of us here at Edmonton’s Best Morning Show.
