Eric Francis

Planet Waves began in 1998 as the home of the Eric Francis horoscope, a prominent feature in our premium service. Going far beyond what most Sun-sign astrologers even dream is possible, Eric brings in-depth interpretations to his work. He is a pioneer in the newly-discovered planets, including Chiron and the centaurs, and is able to translate their movements into accessible human terms, offering ideas for life, love and work. Discover a whole new world of literary journalism in Planet Waves. We offer free trial subscriptions, discounts for students and seniors, and gift subscriptions for veterans and those on active military duty.

Tonight’s edition commences a new program on Planet Waves FM, featuring Mike Amari of Backstage Studio Productions. I recently covered them in this recent article, and featured an interview with them as well. Each week he will be introducing the weekend’s programming at BSP, complete with songs composed by the artists. We’ll provide a schedule and links to the artists’ websites. Here’s the rundown for this weekend.

THUR., SEPT. 5: HOME BODY // BROWN BREAD // O-FACE 18+, 9 pm

Facebook Event Page

Home Body (of Northampton, MA) is an artful electro-pop duo, winning over eardrums left and right with their bold, gutsy, charm. Tight beats, layered glitzy synths, and guttural bass lines march with imaginative, strong vocal melodies riding proudly on their shoulders. Home Body’s music inhabits the sonic space that’s on the edge between machine and mankind, where the manufactured and the organic dance, collide, and figure each other out.
