Honorable mention goes to this fun choral cover of Never Gonna Give You Up, joined by Mr. Astley himself. Consider yourself rickrolled!

The best songs tell stories, whether it’s the writer’s own story or someone else’s. The Decemberists are excellent storytellers, able to paint a picture in your mind of the scene.

I'd like to kick off 2020 with this great live recording of local Seattle band, Deep Sea Diver. This recording is a little old, but it was the first one made at the studio in KEXP's new location. Coincidentally, their grand opening celebration is also where I first saw Deep Sea Diver perform live!

Happy holidays! Today I leave you with the musical adaptation of Mary Schmich's essay. I hope you will think about its meaning as you enter the new year.

Grum's first album will throw you back a few decades with its excellent "retro" sound. It's also groovy as hell. Now, go watch this music video...

The other day my friend Raz played me this RHCP cover done by Luca Stricagnoli, a phenomenally talented guitar player/one-man band. Not only does it sound great, but I was blown away at how coordinated this guy is!
