Great news for fans of Bill Mumy: the legendary actor/singer-songwriter/voiceover artist/radio guy (sorry–I’m running out of slashes here) will be joining us on Twirl Radio this Saturday, October 16, 2010!
As you most likely know, unless you’ve been somewhere else for the last several decades, Bill is a really well known television actor. He was “Will Robinson” on the classic sci-fi TV series Lost In Space. (You know, when people say “danger, Will Robinson”? Yes, THAT Will Robinson!) He was also in several episodes of the Twilight Zone, most notably in the “Cornfield Kid” episode. He was in Babylon Five. And the list goes on, but since I’m paying by the character, I’ve got to cut it short (I’m kidding!).
Here on Twirl Radio, we’re especially interested in Bill’s music, and he just released a heck of a fine album called Glorious In Defeat. It’s a bluesy affair, written with a keen observer’s eye and performed and produced solely by Bill. We’ll learn what went into the crafting of these songs, and a little more about his musical past. We’ll even ask the hard-hitting question about what inspired him to write the novelty classic “Fish Heads”, during his Barnes and Barnes years!
And if that weren’t enough–we’re going to play enough great indie and well-known, but slightly off the beaten track music to fill your musical plate. Join the fun–Saturday, Oct. 16, 4-6 p.m. Pacific, http://www.twirlradio.com.

I love all the slashes and think they are perfect like Mumy Music! Looking forward to listening to the show today. The ‘Cornfield Kid’ part cracked me up. Don’t forget the cornfield kid really does make music and it’s real good! Cheers! 🙂
Thanks, Susanne! Should be a fun time, and I hope you enjoy it!
Great interview, great musician, great guy!
