Episode 18: #FreshCuts Vol. 18 Preview
Jennifer and I dive into all 24 of this week’s #FreshCuts picked by the Live Wire private Facebook group. Most of these are songs we haven’t heard before, and that’s the point - to expand our musical repertoire. We discuss songs from Sturgill Simpson’s new album under his alter ego Johnny Blue Skies (and I think we may have stumbled upon its real pronunciation). We also get into deep discussions about the cool theremin sounds on a Goldfrapp track, Aesop Rock sounding like a librarian with an attitude, and grooves on multiple songs. The group brought it this week, especially on the back end of this playlist, which you can hear at the links below on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and YouTube. This week’s #FreshCuts feature songs by Jess Glynne, Paramore, Royel Otis, X Ambassadors, Robert Palmer, Faye Webster, Escape The Fate, Robert Jon & The Wreck, Goldfrapp, Cults, Sturgill Simpson as Johnny Blue Skies, Phish, The Hip Abduction, Supertramp, This Is Lorelei, Cindy Lee, Aesop Rock, Deftones, Jesse Welles, Sublime & Stick Figure, Billy Strings, Steel Beans, The Flaming Lips, and we close with a second song from Johnny Blue Skies.
