Hope everybody is up to a good start for a Monday.
I don’t know if you are old enough to recall Whitney Houston in her glory days, but I certainly have been in shock for the last 24 hours or more. She was an idol, drawing on the historical repertoire of performances of the black diva and projecting her unique combination of those performances into the very meaning of popular music....

COOL JENS LEKMAN REVELATION THAT I MADE TODAY VIA...
Famiglia Pizza on 111th and Broadway was playing this song on the radio today. I Shazam™’d it and found out it was called “Heatwave” by Martha Reeves and Vandellas.
I looked up the name of the song because I recognized the chord progression ——- JENS LEKMAN USED IT IN HIS BEST SONG EVER, THIS ONE:
Yelling the chorus to this at a Jens concert is really awesome, I...

An Update on Nathan
I took four classes, went to maybe four concerts, booked one show, and my band went on relative hiatus last semester, and over the course of those four months, I felt like the world was collapsing on me more than I ever did in my life and my grades slipped and so did my well-being. I woke up nauseous a lot.
This coming semester, I’m taking five classes, have an internship, putting out a...

The Last Three Episodes Of BROS 4 LIFE Ever
Hey sup,
The past semester at WBAR has been pretty crazy. I’ve made new real-life friendships with internet personalities, got blown away by performances by my own best friends’ bands, and also got a day-of text and consequently an amazing in-studio from a friend in college radio/songwriting. After most of these shows, the guests of honor ended up eating and/or cooking with me and...
