MARRAKESH EXPRESS "Respond" to Honor First Responders

This edition of “MIDWEST BEAT with Tom Lounges” originally aired on TUESDAY, SEPT. 5, 2017.

MUSICAL GUEST: MARRAKESH EXPRESS

Several members from the remarkable CSN&Y tribute group MARRAKESH EXPRESS will join Tom Lounges live in-studio for this week's evening edition of the program to talk about their group's long hiatus, their recent reunion, and their part in the September 9th "First Responders Appreciation Music Night" taking place at Highland's Wicker Memorial Park.  

The guys are likely to perform a couple of live acoustic tunes while the mics are turned on as well, so be prepared for a very entertaining evening of radio.  

Tom Lounges has been a region radio personality and a music journalist since 1979. For the last 35-years, he has been reporting on entertainment as a weekly columnist and feature writer for The Times newspaper. He was also publisher and editor of the monthly tri-state entertainment magazine ("Midwest BEAT Magazine") for over two decades, he has written hundreds of features for numerous national glossy magazines over the decades, and he wrote "Liner Notes" for over a dozen albums release by Sony Records.
