Brainwaves – Sept. 5, 2023 – Saturday night live
Written by Brian Blum on 04/09/2023
It’s not Saturday night, but Brainwaves is featuring “Saturday” songs on this week’s show, from the Jam, Blitzen Trapper, America and Sparklehorse. Radio songs from Wall of Voodoo, Elvis Costello and the Buggles. The Abrams invite you to spend your life with them. The Passion Pit get carried away. And Mouth and MacNeil ask – in fully Joey Tribbiani mode – “How do you do?” It’s all on this week’s Brainwaves.
