Five of the better tunes I've heard today:
KDHX 88.1 FM
- Love, Try Not To Let Go-Julia Jacklin (This new release has endearing vocals over piano-and-drums backing reminiscent of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams.")
- Might As Well-The Persuasions & Friends (An inspired Gospel-style a cappella take on a Grateful Dead tune. Also recommended: "Ripple.")
WSIE 88.7 FM
- Alright Now-Chris Hazelton's Boogaloo Seven (A great midtempo instrumental, bringing to mind R&B backing from decades earlier, despite being from 2015; strong organ grounding supports the brassy melody.)
- Sometimes-The Brand New Heavies (Empowering vocals over a sly instrumental backdrop in an appealing blend of jazz and R&B.)
KCLC 89.1 FM
- Open Up The Heavens-Jade Bird (Powerful rhythmic support for lyrics that say, in essence, "Hey, notice me!")
