Kent Allebrand

there was also a swedish band played during the show when they were reviewing their top international choices for the year – what was the name of that band?

Amber Shreve

The name of the band is The Amazing. Good luck trying to find much information about them, I’ve been trying all weekend.

I’m only seeing a partial list of the songs played on air that day (dec. 21st)
Can you give me the info on Necca(?). I know it was a Nigerian singer as well as the Brazilian singer and album name–I think the song was called “bon senso”.
Are they all available through amazon?
Thanks so much
