Top 3 Indies Videos 4/13/18! Camens, The Connection, Fezz, Su Ko D Koi (Jpn)!

It’s time once again for the Top 3 Indies Artist Video Countdown for April 14, 2018! Starting off the countdown today are a four-member band from Stoke-On-Trent (Isn’t that where Peter 118 is from?). Their name is “Camens.”  Their bio says: CAMENS use guitars, drums and voices to create riffs, hooks and choruses that might sound at home on a playlist alongside the likes of Circa Waves, The Amazons, High Tyde, Blossoms, The Killers, and VANT to name a few.”

Here’s their Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/camensuk1/

3) Camens – Violent Video Games https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecnd59G0RZk

Next, at #2, is Brad Marino’s newest work. (Brad’s been on the countdown before). Their name is the Connection. Their bio states: “Granite states Greatest Rock n’ Roll band. Led by songwriters Brad Marino and Geoff Palmer. The Connection was formed in 2011 and plays a tuneful take on classic 50/60’s Rock n Roll and 70’s Power pop/Punk Rock. A favorite of Little Steven, the band has had 8 “Coolest Song’s in the World” on the Underground Garage. New album “Wish you Success” is the bands’s 3rd Full Length LP to go along with several other singles and EP’s.” (What’s a “Granite State?” – Mike)

As a university student, he was assistant to the legendary Rodney Bingenheimer (Rodney on the ROQ – KROQ Los Angeles from 1980 ~ 1981.) Mike was the first and only foreigner in Japanese history to become the General Manager of a major Japanese broadcasting station (TV Tokyo owned InterFM). Has produced a few smash hit programs (some real losers, too!) and several of Tokyo’s highest rated and most famous radio programs. A recent hit Internet TV program was “The TV Show” (Set Program with “Ninja Slayer”) which, between April – Oct. 2015, garnered over 10 million viewers.  He is currently producing and hosting “The Mike Rogers Show” every Sunday live on InterFM 89.7  in Tokyo and Radio Neo in Nagoya 79.5 and nationally broadcast on Radiko.jp (Internet radio).  And he is the creator and founder of the Mt.
