**The weather is getting hotter, the ground is cracked and humming – a perfect time to revisit last year’s episode with Andrew Weathers!** For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Andrew Weathers on the show. Few people have been involved in more of my favorite albums over the last 10+ years, so […]
Sometimes I look at an old map and let my imagination drift to places that once flourished and are now shells. When did the turn from thriving to decay happen? And why? Answers are fleeting, but within fictitious memories, we can become something else. Gretchen Korsmo’s spellbinding Silhouettes, Spires is a momentary treatise on our […]
For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Andrew Weathers on the show. Few people have been involved in more of my favorite albums over the last 10+ years, so I was thrilled to chat with him. Andrew’s a real one. We talk about a lot of pop punk, what made Roy Orbison […]

Felidae Katla (Full Spectrum) It can be difficult to capture the potency of a specific moment in time where planets align just right and that tenuous sliver of magic reveals itself, but […]
Intermittent patterns emerge in the repetitions of Jordan Glenn’s “The Carousel” from his forthcoming album on Full Spectrum, Flustered. Glenn is a Mills College alumnus and Bay Area stalwart having played with the likes of Zeena Parkins, Fred Frith, Roscoe Mitchell, and others while leading the percussion-heavy ensemble BEAK. While his work in various groups and […]
