Radio show!! →
Tumblr! I forgot about you!
But tune in now till 3 p.m. for X-Rated: pretty sure this is the first time Screaming Females has been played on KZUM. ;)
Another lady music event this week
I didn’t see Wye Oak listed in this week’s Women’s Music Calendar, and I just wanted to give people a heads up. They play at The Slowdown on Sunday.

WatchClawfoot Women’s Music Salon | X-Rated
“Today, I decided I was going to try [to make] some outsider techno,” says Rachel West, eliciting peals of laughter from throughout the room. “That’s what I’m going to call it, considering that I use Garage Band and Audacity, and I don’t care about anything else.”
“That’s so exciting!” host Amy Gordon says.
“Outsider techno,” West continues, “just...

Hear Nebraska: Omaha Riot Grrrl | Echoes →
“That was riot grrrl — a movement going beyond the female-fronted, third-wave feminist bands (Bikini Kill, Bratmobile and dozens of others) and into individual community groups and locally produced zines. There were frank discussions — of misogyny in local scenes, of sexual assault, of the right to choice, of the important issues facing a generation for whom second-wave feminism never...

And now for something completely different!
I don’t know about you guys, but the last few weeks have been pretty stressful … so I think I’m going to try something new this week. Taking my friend Mark’s suggestion, I’m going to do a folk/country/americana version of the show! Laidback, easygoing music that I typically don’t play on the radio: tomorrow, it’s taking center stage. ;)

"27 Songs From Barcelona" compilation →
Free, band-sponsored downloads of Swedish group I’m From Barcelona’s “27 Songs From Barcelona.” The project involved each band member recording a “solo” song for inclusion, though there’s naturally a lot of collaboration between members. Enjoy!

Pray for me and my ears. I’m not exactly a metal person. But I’m trying to expand the show’s (and my) repertoire.
I may regret this decision.

"Hello Goodbye" by The Better Beatles | Echoes →
by John Wenz
Have you ever heard one of those albums that just grabs you and doesn’t let go? That gets to the inner core of your being? That feels like a completion to your soul. A lot of very boring people will tell you they have Beatles songs that are EXACTLY LIKE THAT, as if a million other people hadn’t thought the same thing. And that’s the thing about The Beatles....
