Generally, when we hit an episode number ending in a zero or five we like to do something a little special, kind of like birthdays once you’re over the age of 35. However, given the widespread changes that are happening all over the place thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, I thought a little bit of normalcy might be something special in itself.

That said, I hope everyone is doing okay out there. As a podcast about local music, I can’t help but feel a little frivolous continuing to compile playlists, research bands and spread the word; we certainly have bigger issues to worry about but I think it’s good to be grounded. It’s good to feel connected to your community and in a town that is so prevalent with live music, it’s good to have something to look forward to.

So, this week I’m going to play some new music from a smattering of genres that have brought me some pleasure recently. Hopefully they bring you some pleasure as well. Be sure to click through and hear more from each artist and continue to support one another!
