KAXE's Music Team, Malachy Koons, Dan Gannon aka DJ Dang and me, Music Director Kari Hedlund, continued our shenanigans of talking music in this recap of our favorite releases from May.
Take a listen to us discussing our favorites from the past month, featuring albums like Car Seat Headrest's latest rock opera The Scholar, jazz fusion in Emma-Jean Thackray's Weirdo and the beautiful and heartbreaking new release from Alan Sparhawk, With Trampled by Turtles.
We also highlight a cheeky new track from London rapper Little Simz, Jobi Riccio's relevant and timely "Wildfire Season," the latest bop from Alex G and many more. It's also the radio debut of DJ Dang's dog Bam Bam!
Get your tickets to see Alan Sparhawk — and Jeremie Albino, Margo Price and Courtney Barnett — on the banks of the Mississippi at Grand Rapids Riverfest, Saturday, Sept. 6.
