Benji Hughes session and new Ben Lee last night on Indie 103's Dead Air

Submitted by Mike R. on Mon, 11/17/2008 - 15:32

I pays to listen to Chuck P's Indie 103 radio show Dead Air on Sunday evenings.

Last night he premiered a new Ben Lee song "I Love Pop Music" and a 3 song session from Benji Hughes.

I could have sworn that Indie 103 had a streaming on demand feature for it's specialty shows but they don't.

Hopefully, Chuck will play the Ben Lee song, again.
