Los Microwaves had been touring "coast to coast" for 3 years when upon moving to New York City from San Francisco, Interview Magazine's Glenn O'Brien wrote that they were "possibly the greatest rock band ever". After 2 more national tours, an LP on Poshboy records, and 4 cult hit singles, the band played their last show at New York's Danceteria in March 1983.

The main line-up included vocalist-bassist Meg Brazill, vocalist-keyboardist David Javelosa, and drummer-bassist Todd "Rosa" Rosencrans. The fourth member floated between Caroline Canning on percussion for the west coast, and Pilar Limosner on keyboards and fire-dancing for the east coast. The band had played venues in most major cities and college towns in the U.S. and Canada, and performed on tour with such bands as Gang of Four, Bow Wow Wow, Wall of Voodoo, XTC, Oingo Boingo, 999, Romeo Void, and Book of Love, to name a few.

Creating sound and music from the fusion of techno-punk, new wave pop, and electronic music, Los Microwaves featured a quirky audio theater that was best experienced live and from the dance floor. Sporting a combination of early portable synthesizers, bass and processed percussion, the music continues to deliver a unique groove, even by today's electronic methods.

Radio Heart
The band's most successfull dance single, launching them from a San Francisco band to a national touring act.

Time To Get Up
The band's big early morning radio novelty song. Probably sold more singles but was especially fun on stage. Meg on synth.

What's That Got To Do With Loving You
Another anthem from dance land. Always filled the floor and was fun to play too!

Coast To Coast
The B side to Radio Heart 7". Kind of an art tune with an annoying style that fit the mood of the time

TV In My Eye
The B side to Time To Get Up 7" and soundtrack to an LA video project. This also featured Todd on bass.
BONUS COVER!!!
by Le Shok

La Voix Humane
One of our favorite dance numbers. Pilar would fire-dance to this tune at the end of the set!

Forever
Another re-recording of the original single, with a cleaner sound, extended mix and released on the Life After Breakfast LP.
