Explore the trailblazing era of late 70s and early 80s jazz fusion, led by Japan's iconic band Casiopea. Dive into their groundbreaking 1982 album, 'Mint Jams,' a live-recorded yet studio-polished gem that embodies a futuristic essence. Discover how diverse cultures interpret and excel in this genre, surpassing conventional Western norms.

On his first full length Pictures Of An Exhibitionist, singer/songwriter (and, full disclosure, one of our brodawg's) Seán Barna is getting in touch with his feelings and delivering a savagely raw set of songs that chronicle his adventures in LA and Washington, DC over the past few years. Kevin and Marcus (Dowling) are sitting down with the "dark lord" of folk to talk the ins and outs of Exhibitionist, life after DC, and more.

PLUS! Instead of giving up on being a musician after suffering a crippling health crisis, Kaeley Pruitt-Hamm poured her experiences into her new EP, Hi From Pillows (out NOW on Local Woman Records). Part art, part activism, Pillows tackles important issues that affect us all, exploring them through a slightly-honeyed indie-folk lens. Check out the single "Thorns" from this gem of an EP.

That's kinda what it's like listening to The Mystery Lights.

This is what it's like talking with them.
