    The Cars (EP 59)

    Guest host DP Derringer joins the rest of Team Derringer as they explore the new-wave, pop-rock band, The Cars. In the latter part of 1976, founding members Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr were joined by Elliott Eston, David Robinson, and Greg Hawkes to form the new wave pioneering band, The Cars.
    The Cars were considered by many to be among the frontrunners of the New Wave music genre. By the early 1980s, The Cars’ videos were in regular rotation on the fledging music video channel, MTV.
    Join Team Derringer as they delve into the formation of The Cars and highlight some of the band’s most popular hits. Have the songs stood the test of time? Let us know!

    U2 with Special Guest David Husted (EP58)

    U2 with Special Guest David Husted (EP58)

    Team Derringer is joined by recording artist David Husted from Maryland in the US. David is a super fan of the Dublin, Ireland band U2. Together they count down David's Top 5 favorite U2 songs.
    During this music adventure:
    You will hear about a song written by U2 in honor of Martin Luther King Jr., including a snippet from one of MLK's most famous calls to action.
    You will discover which U2 song features not one but two glockenspiels. Team Derringer will even tell you what in the world is a glockenspiel and which two members of the band played glockenspiels on the hit recording of a song that you will surely know.
    David Husted's #1 pick will take you back to the legendary 1985 Live Aid concert and the 12 minutes that turned U2 from a promising rock band into global superstars when Bono jumped off the 10-foot-high stage mid-song to save the life of audience member Kal Khalique. By the way, Kal was a fan of the band Wham! not U2.
    David and Team Derringer also each reveal their favorite songs from U2's 1987 classic album The Joshua Tree.
    U2's 2024 hit song Atomic City is also included, along with David Husted's latest single Collide, released 12 April 2024.
