Legendary Local Band Dead Serios To Record Session and Interview for Jan. 23 Broadcast

Dead Serious

Legendary local band Dead Serios will be recording a 3 song set and interview at WFIT Broadcast Center today at 1 p.m.

Dead Serios will be celebrating their 30th anniversary this year with a special concert at the King Center Studio Theater on Saturday, January 24 7:00pm.
Described stylistically as Frank Zappa-meets-Metallica at the Willy Wonka factory, the award-winning band Dead Serios first launched from Florida’s Space Coast in 1985.

They continue to delight fans with its unique brand of irreverent, high-energy rock and roll.

To commemorate the band’s upcoming 30th anniversary, GhoulTone Records will be releasing a 12-song Dead Serios tribute album in January 2015 titled "They’re Not Joking,"
 
The band will record a 3 song set and interview with the host Todd Kennedy of Sound Waves. The session will air next Friday, January 23 at noon time.

Originally from Boston, Todd Kennedy began volunteering at WFIT 89.5 FM in 1992 as a late night jazz DJ. In 1998 he was hired as Director of Operations and in 2004 he became Program Director until his retirement in 2022.
