One of the great things about writing for WNEW.com is getting to bring bands in to our studio for interviews and acoustic sessions. One of the best we've had so far was with Noah and the Whale. They had just landed in the US and were about to head out on their first tour of America.
Before hitting the road the guys stopped by our studio and played three songs for us: 2 Atoms In A Molecule, Give A Little Love, and If I Die Tonight. They also sat down for a group interview, and revealed…

Toots Hibbert was his usual lively self for this gig - the first stop on their '08 summer tour - proving the years on the road aren't slowing this reggae legend down.

He did slow down some of the music, however, which made for a different Toots show than any I'd seen before. The show had the feeling of a warmup gig - an intimate show amongst friends before the band heads out on the road.

The Maytals play grooves that reach right inside you and force you to move your…
