This is our 2024 Live N’ Local Seasonal Sampler – Volume 1.

It’s where we take a pause at this midway point, look back at the first part of 2024, and chose to highlight a musical performance from each Live N’ Local podcat that has appeared throughout the first half of the fourth season of our On Air podcast. This Seasonal Sampler is less of a greatest hits, and more of a critic’s pick. A curated mixtape of clashing styles and diverse forms with one thing in common – they all hail from the musical melting pot of Northern Manhattan.
