For anybody that wants to know more about what I do… Here’s a stupidly massive playlist of everything I’ve played on my radio show on WDVX since April of 2020. It’s a pretty solid “set to random” playlist, I think.

We'll also feature Americanafest interviews with old friend Tift Merritt & new favorite Presley Haile, share a bunch of new music, & spin everyone from Booker T. to Shaboozey.

I got to host a rare WDVX Blue Plate Special a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed spending some time with this young band out of the DC area... Night Hawk. Here's one of their tunes that just got posted on the WDVXRadio YouTube channel.

Tift Merritt & Presley Haile were two of the artists I most wanted to see at Americanafest this year.

I also got to speak to both of them at the festival last month.

Hear those conversations… and a few exclusive recordings tonight on The Americana Pulse on WDVX.

Pretty sure I made these 15 years ago, and they have followed me from phone to phone.

Digging into some Auerbach productions as I prepare to feature the new Robert Finley on this week's show.

I'd almost forgotten how much I enjoyed this album from Britti last year. Hope y'all didn't sleep on it.

My text message tone is Scott Miller & The Commonwealth.

My ring tones are Alejandro Escovedo and The David Mayfield Parade.

I should maybe set my alarm to R.E.M.'s "Get Up," or possibly "The Wake Up Bomb."

Honestly... would rather be a "Daysleeper," though.

Just rooting for Geno & Castillo now…

Closest I’ll get to watching the Reds this deep in a postseason, it seems.
