On Episode #98 of “Sound Up!,” Mark Goodman and Alan Light welcome The Swell Season - Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova - to discuss “Forward,” their first album together in 16 years. Alan recaps Paul Simon’s opening night at the Beacon Theatre and we have a listener review of the Kendrick Lamar/SZA tour. In music news, the trailer for the Bruce Springsteen biopic premiered, bass legend Carol Kaye says she’s refusing her Rock Hall induction, and Motley Crue team up with Dolly Parton. New music picks this week include songs from Mark Ronson and Raye, Erykah Badu, and S.G. Goodman.
