No Kings Day

8:00am - 12:00pm

Today's show was started automatically - twenty minutes early! Started with new music discovered within the pages of the excellent UK magazine, Songlines, which comes with a free CD every month. Paid tribute to Beach Boy Brian Wilson with two songs covered by other luminaries, and one Beach Boys original penned by the great innovator. Then a bunch of songs inspired by the latest tragic and outrageous events in LA (before I heard about the MN attacks. Is there no end to this madness?) Promoted CD launch concerts by locals Suzie Ungerleider and Jocelyn Pettit. Finished up with a customary flourish of exhilarating Celtic music
