Sailing On, Sailors

Monday, June 7

Lonesome Kind is the new release from Michigan-based singer-songwriter DL Rossi. Inspired in part by his move back to the Great Lakes State from Nashville, the record demonstrates Rossi’s knack for creating moving songs that move the singer-songwriter genre into new territory. We’ll also hear from Start It Over, the first-ever solo release from Riley Downing of The Deslondes.

Saturday, June 12

What do progressive rock bands such as Genesis and Yes have in common with the lo-fi aesthetics of Ohio’s Guided By Voices? On the surface, not much. But Guided By Voices frontman Robert Pollard has long proclaimed his affinity for prog rock and demonstrates that via a new song on the latest GBV album, Earth Man Blues. Hear that and selections from Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio, Teenage Fanclub, and Todd Snider on this episode.
