New York, New York! It's a Helluva Town!

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Frank Sinatra once crooned that if he could make it there, he’d make it anywhere. Today, Soundcheck looks at all New York City has to offer through the eyes of songwriters. We'll sample tunes about the romantic, the legendary and downright seedy parts of the Big Apple. Plus, listeners can call in about their favorite New York tunes. Then, members of the British band “Bloc Party” talk about their rise to indie-rock stardom.
