Rachel Mallin and The Wild Type at RecordBar, 5/11/17
Rachel Mallin and The Wild Type recently crushed their set at a sold out RecordBar . It was the last date on their tour with the Greeting Committee . It is wonderful to see two of Kansas City’s best bands touring together, bringing those real KC vibes to people around the country. “White Girls” was my favorite song of 2016 . Rachel is a past interview subject of mine and was my most frequent live guest of last year . Check out this live version of the excellent “White Girls.”
