Last week on the show I got to hang out with the Portland based electronic synth pop duo, Cloudlines. We spent the evening playing their influences and talking to them about their creative process. Some of the band's influences include More Giraffes, BORNS, and Made in Heights just to name a few. It was really interesting to hear about their approach to making music and working out of their home studio. The second hour of our broadcast featured the band's music including the current PRP single, Just Friends.

Just days before releasing her new single Yes Means Yes, recording artist Hannah DiMo joined me on the program. In the first hour we listened to Hannah’s influences as she shared some insight into her writing process. Listeners were also treated to a stunning performance from Hannah of an unreleased original track called Love Is All There Is. Our second hour featured a guest appearance by friends of the show, Kingsley and Courtney Noe. I asked my guests about the challenges they face as women in the music industry and any advice they could share with our listeners. To end the broadcast we had played the radio debut of Hannah's new single "Yes Means Yes". Big thanks to Hannah, Kingsley, and Courtney Noe for taking the time to hang out with us.

Last month I welcomed singer-songwriter, Hayley Lynn to the program. I had a chance to talk to Hayley about her musical influences and working with Portland producer, Kyle Devine. Kyle and Hayley recently released a 12 track LP called Bring on the Flames. We played a handful of songs off of Bring on the Flames and other selections from Hayley's catalog. Listeners also got to hear her perform an unreleased track called If You Show that brought the talk board to life.

About a month after releasing his latest LP, Jacob Westfall joined me on the program. During the show we listened to some of Jacob's biggest influences including John Mayer, Bon Iver, Brandi Carlile and more.  Our listeners got to hear Jacob perform Somebody, a track off of his album Where We Are. After his performance we go through a track by track breakdown of the record!

On this episode of the show I spoke with Michael Jonas of Rational Unicorn Legal Services LLC. As my listeners know I like to dive into all angles of the music business so here was my chance to pick Michael's brain about music law. During the broadcast we also listened to a handful of Michael's musical influences and heard his thoughts on the current music scene.

A month before the release of their "Train" LP, Green Mountain Guild stopped by the station to talk to me about the new album and their plans for 2019. The band was kind enough to give our listeners and early listen to the new record and share stories about the production process.
