The members of Austin’s Tomar & The FCs (our January Artist of the Month) have fascinating musical resumes, ranging from soul/R&B backing gigs to co-producing hits for Houston rap legends Mike Jones and Paul Wall (seriously). This week on My KUTX, we turn the guest DJ keys over to lead singer Tomar Williams and drummer Paul Kresowik to take us through their respective music histories and play the songs that blew their minds. Tune in on Saturday, January 14 at 6 p.m. or listen anytime at the bottom of the page.
