Tune in tomorrow morning at 6am on WXNA wxnafm.org or 101.5FM in Nashville to hear a special edition of Greetings from Nashville - as we celebrate Nashville legend Mac Gayden and his work as a songwriter, producer, band member, session musician, and solo artist.
A long daily shuffle follows - after the jump below.
Featured Friday Playlist
Wednesday Morning Shuffle
"Trad Ghost" by Gold Hick (from Formed at Depth - 2020)
For the third time in the last week ago, a song from Norwich artist Gold Hick starts our shuffle. One of the quirks of the random shuffle function is that things like this happen, and I have enjoyed digging deeper in this 2020 album.
"Black and Gold Christmas (feat. The Black and Gold Christmas Chorus)" by Chip & The Charge Ups (from Lightning in Out Veins - 2020)
Yes a Christmas song - but a very specific Pittsburgh based Christmas song from this power pop. pop punk band.
"Queen of the Highway" by STASH (from Walk the Walk - 2021)
The debut album from a true songwriting supergroup - featuring Ted Russell Kamp, Rich McCulley, and Joey Peters.
"What Does She Know" by Kleenex Girl Wonder (Ponyoak 20th Anniversary Edition - 2020)
As the album title suggests, this the 20th Anniversary edition of the classic album Ponyoak by the indie rock band originally from Chicago and now based in New York City.
"How I Want To Love You" by Sarah Morris (from All Mine - 2019)
Next up, a track from the 2019 release by the Minneapolis based singer-songwriter.
"Kiss Me Like You Mean It" by Bikini Test Failure (single - 2021)
Next up, we have a catchy single from the UK based artist and singer-songwriter.
"Funk Dixie!" by Willie Dustice (from Trax4Stax Vol. 1 - 2021)
The last track from a mixtape from the Nashville based musician, rapper, and all around good guy - Stephen Nicholas Roberts aka The Afrosapien. There was no video for this track, so I posted a live acoustic rap of a different song.
"Whatcha Drinkin'" by West of Texas (from Heartache, Hangovers & Honky Tonks - 2021)
Another track from California based country band West of Texas.
"So We Begin" by Pikefruit (from Inflorescence - 2021)
Sparkly synth-pop from Seattle.
"We Want a Rock" by They Might Be Giants (from Flood - 1990)
A track from one of my all-time favorite albums.
"Hey Tom" by Brock Zeman (from Hey Tom - 2020)
And, we close with the title track from Canadian songwriter, musician, producer, singer Brock Zeman's tribute to the songs of Nashville original Tom House. No video for this song, so I have one of Zeman doing a Tom House song.
