Color me intrigued! Glass has a show coming up and a full-length album on the way. Also, we laugh way too hard on this episode! Enjoy.

Sam and Des came by to tell us all about the folk rock stylings of their band, Harlow. We talk about the debut album, upcoming shows/releases, and get a little insight into what it's like being in an up-and-coming band in the modern era. They also bring along some genuinely beautiful tunes. Enjoy!

Monet and Vanessa from Spit Takes stop by to talk about their debut eponymous LP! The big release show is this Saturday at Cloudland. We also talk about some other upcoming gigs AND! we dive into Monet's new record label Whiplass, dedicated to amplifying the music and voices of femme, trans, and queer punks. This was a fun one. Enjoy!

Adam and Eric from The Long Honeymoon joined us for a great conversation! We chatted about the history of the band and how they were formed. They have released an EP and an album, but have already written two more albums and partially produced the second album. We felt like total underachievers!

Jake Rudh brought the heat today. Three great song pulls, we're not surprised. This Saturday at the 1st Ave Mainroom, he'll be celebrating 25 years of Transmission. We had a great discussion about music, his process and his passion. We love Jake and can't wait to celebrate with him on Saturday.
