I recently did a Mammoth song, so I'm going to do a second #SongOfTheDay for today.

Escalator to Purgatory by Dirty Shirley

This is a really cool song from 2020 that sounds like it's out of the 80s. Great guitar. Great vocals. Smashing rock song.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

The #NewRelease of the day is Last Night On Earth by the great Finger Eleven.

I don't want to call it a return to form, but it's their first new album in 10 years and it kicks hard. So great and so happy to see new music from Finger Eleven.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

Just wake up
Not everything will be this tough
Don’t ever think it’s not enough
If it meant anything to you

Think It Over by Mammoth

#SongOfTheDay

Just a great song off Wolfgang's first album. Straight forward modern rock.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

I thought that I knew love, but it was just a wave crashing over us.

Waves by The Dear Hunter

#SongOfTheDay

Love this band. This song is a great example of why.

Today's #NewRelease is Very Big in Sheboygan by @benquadok.bsky.social

Points for the cheeky title that makes me chuckle. But another solid release from a great post-emo band. Check it out.

Today's #NewRelease is Beneath the Wreckage by Darth Marley and Rev Theory.

This is a great modern rock EP. Each song is great, the music is incredible and filled with sorrow and meaning. This is a top tier release.

Today's #NewRelease is The 20th Anniversary edition of Tea & Sympathy by @bernardfanning.bsky.social

Fanning is the voice of Powderfinger, and this solo album is just as captivating, with a mix of styles that, even after 20 years, sounds just as fresh as ever.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

The look inside your eyes drives me from control.

Lotion by Greenskeepers

#SongOfTheDay

A perfect song for Halloween.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

The #NewRelease for today is Private Hospital by Damien Jurado. Damien Jurado has one of my favorite songs of all time in Kola. This latest album is a hard to define, but eloquent and stunning.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

Every single hope and dream I could ever conjure up passionatly springs in me and all things are possible, plausible, and perfectly both of ours forever.

Canadian Rose by Blues Traveler

#SongOfTheDay

My favorite BT album and such beautiful lyrics. John Popper is amazing. #NowPlaying #MusicSky

My #NewRelease of the day is Cry in Public by Gürl.

I love this band, one of those bands I feel is doing something really unique. They describe it is Metal meets Trap with Pop melodies. This song is great.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

Today's #NewRelease is The End by Mammoth.

I just love Wolfgang and all his music. I love the melody's he writes, and this album is another fantastic example of what he does.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

The sparkle in your eyes keeps me alive.

She Sells Sanctuary by The Cult

#SongOfTheDay

A classic today. What an incredible song. It doesn't matter how many times I hear this song, it comes on and I stop what I'm doing and bounce my head. And Ian Astbury, chefs kiss.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

Today's #NewRelease is Misogyny by AlexisonFire. Gritty, hard hitting rock. Love it.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

Your wisdom is older than me, but oh my brother, don't you worry about me.

Lost in My Mind by @headandtheheart.bsky.social

#SongOfTheDay

Just one of those songs that I can't ever listen to only once. 3 or 4 times minimum. They have a few of those songs.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

The #NewRelease of today is Safe, Sensible and Sane by Alison Brown and Steve Martin.

This bluegrass album is so great, and if you have never listened to Steve Martin's music, do yourself a favor and give this a listen.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky

I'm done cursing at the sky, and I remember how my mother spoke when she said "son don't be afraid to call on those who love you most."

The Love by @thedearhunter.bsky.social

#SongOfTheDay

What a song. What an effing song. No words. Just listen.

#MusicSky

Today's #NewRelease is HIGH, LONESOME AND THEN SOME. by the great and inimitable Todd Snider. This album was just released today and it is as incredible as anything he has done. This album deserves everyone's attention.

#MusicSky

Today's #NewRelease is Sea Level by @luafloramusic.bsky.social featuring Brett Dennen.

Such a positive song that just gives out such good vibes. I love Lua Flora's take on the indie folk genre. This song is a great example of what makes them great.

Strip my heart from misconceptions, fill my eyes with greed, let me make my own convictions in this endless sea.

Love this song. Love this guy. Very interesting look at adolescence in the late 90s,early 2000s.

#MusicSky

The #NewRelease of the day is Comin' to You by Kishi Bashi, one of the most inventive and unique artists I know.

His new single released today and everyone should give it a listen.

Nothing you say is gonna make me stay, your words are stains when I'm already dirty.

Buckets of Hate by Timo Räisänen

#SongOfTheDay

I love this song from 2012. So much emotion poured into this song. And it expresses things I think everyone can relate to.

#MusicSky

Today's #NewRelease is Free Ride by Aranda.

Check it out. Some good old fashioned rock & roll. Great band that deserves more listens.

How many times have you been pushed around? Is anybody there? Does anybody care?

Life by Our Lady Peace

#SongOfTheDay

One of my favorite songs by this band. Very underrated song on a very underrated album by a very underrated band.

This morning I went by my lawyer's place/I didn't think you would mind here, honey, sign this dotted line/What's yours is yours and what is mine will always be mine

#SongOfTheDay

You make me sick
Because I adore you so

My favorite song by Muse. No explanation necessary in this one. Just listen and wonder.

I can save you, save you my goddamned self and what's left of me, or just save myself.

Radio One Two by Dead Sara

Big fan of this band. This song just drips with energy. One of my favorites.

#SongOfTheDay

This is where the party ends
I'll just sit here wondering how you
Can stand by your racist friend
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
You and your racist friend
