Brainwaves – December 8, 2020 – Hit the ground running
Written by Brian Blum on 07/12/2020
This week on Brainwaves, music for running with the Buzzcocks, the Polyphonic Spree, Snow Patrol, Vampire Weekend, MissFlag and the Doves, with the song “Hit the Ground Running” which sounds eerily like Warren Zevon’s “Werewolves of London” (so we’ve got that one, too). Plus Stars, Starcastle and Starflower.
