After the whimsical straight-up rock n' roll of their 2013 release "Action Figures", Providence pop-punk outfit Neo Nouveau has been keeping things on the down low. They only play a couple shows a year, so catching them when you can
Making their first ever Home BRU'd appearance, The Sugar Honey Iced Tea stopped by WBRU to promote their upcoming show with Zox on October 11that Lupo's.

September 1, 2014 An old Home Bru'd favorite, Kid Mountain stopped by the studios for this week's exclusive Home BRU'd Session (and broke new ground by bringing a Glockenspiel into the building). Check out the exclusive set RIGHT HERE. The latest from WBRU Home Bru'd:
