Radio Happy Hour Returns to New York w/ Bazan, Eisenberg, and Silvestri 5/8

Radio Happy Hour returns home to New York from their brief Midwestern tour on May 08 for a performance at (le) Poisson Rouge. The May episode will feature indie-folk icon David Bazan, actor Jesse Eisenberg (The Squid & The Whale, Adventureland, and the upcoming The Living Wake), and comedian Max Silvestri for a comedic murder-mystery, musical performances, interviews and more.

Radio Happy Hour, the radio show not on the radio, is a live variety show featuring a made-for-radio murder mystery sitcom, guest stars, musical performances, an audience quiz, and interviews. It is the creation of Sam Osterhout, who also writes and serves as the show's host. "We try to book guests that have personalities that cross at odd angles," said Osterhout, "But there are always these neat little connections. You never know what will happen." The show also stars actors Matt Skibiak and Robin Reed, with music by Stephanie Davila (aka StarDweller).

All shows are podcast online following the performance. You can hear past episodes of Radio Happy Hour, with guests such as Norah Jones, Andrew W.K., The Hold Steady, Tunde Adebimpe of TV on the Radio, Cursive, Jolie Holland, Matt Pond PA, Tapes 'n Tapes, Michael Showalter, Eugene Mirman, Chuck Klosterman, and more at RadioHappyHour.com or at iTunes.
