Music Podcast 030: Bassline Mellow Feel Good (Featuring Lissie, Fleetwood Mac, Foster The People, Jack Johnson, Daft Punk, Thomas Rhett, Dua Lipa, More)

Hard to put my finger on it but these songs just kind of go together.

They feature a fairly present bassline and overall a pretty good vibe.

Best served a good set of headphones or a good system that you can bump up the bass a bit.

Press play and listen now to see if you agree.

Music Podcast 026: About Mom’s & Momma’s (Featuring Kolton Moore, The Band Camino, Puscifer, 2Pac, Russ, Kota the Friend, Merle Haggard, More)

Q: What is the one thing that we ALL have in common?

A: We wouldn’t if it weren’t for a mom.

The songs in this episode have something in common too. Despite being from artists as diverse as 2Pac and Merle Haggard (bet you never saw those two names mentioned in the same breath before), these songs are written “to” or written “about” mom’s.

Join me in celebrating moms and reminding ourselves that despite where we come from we are all more alike than we think all while listening to some good music.

Bring an open mind and listen now.
