The kid asked me about Brennen Wedl & Waxahatchee’s cover of Six O’Clock News yesterday. Today, I’m giving her some Kathleen Edwards immersion. We must teach our children about the important things.
I remember they played Big Star’s “Thirteen,” and it was beautiful.
2017. Jon Dee Graham & Bonnie Whitmore joined me in the WDVX studio. One of the most fun sessions I’ve ever hosted. Very sad to hear of Jon’s passing.
Caught the back half of a beautiful set from Haley Heynderickx after taking in the first half of a hypnotic set from Gwenifer Raymond. Only at Big Ears…
The thing about a festival like Big Ears is that sometimes the two acts you want to see the most (HH & GW) get scheduled at the same time. The other thing is that I know I could walk in to literally anything else on the schedule and also have a great time.
