Brainwaves – October 8, 2024 – The left/right show
Written by Brian Blum on 06/10/2024
I try not to get political on Brainwaves, but looking at the world these days, I was inspired to create a show exploring “left” and “right.” The first half of the show is all songs with “left” in the title. The second half has all the “right” songs. Music from Suzanne Vega, the Arkells, Nick Drake, Imagine Dragons, Alt-J, Matt & Kim, Supergrass, the Bats, Depeche Mode and much more. It’s not politics, just great music.
