Robert Moore brings David Bowie to RecordBar on Sunday — in spirit
With a playlist as rich as a block of Stilton, Robert Moore’s Sonic Spectrum broadcast sets the standard for free-form radio in this city every Saturday night. The first installation of his newest project, the Sonic Spectrum Tribute Series, features the work of David Bowie covered by such scene kings as Steve Tulipana, Brodie Rush and Cody Wyoming. We asked Moore how he plans to pull off such heavy tuneage.
The Pitch: What inspired this tribute series?
Moore: We’ve done a couple in the past — Leonard Cohen, the Go-Betweens — and I finally found the time to make it a monthly event. I’ve always been a fan of cover songs — when they’re done well, obviously, and especially when they’re completely different interpretations. The goal is to celebrate the artist and to highlight the depth and talent of our local music community.
