The Music Meetup

"This week I feature the founding father of idiosyncratic soul, a pioneering R&B musician, and kindhearted artist Jerry Williams Jr. aka Swamp Dogg! We chat about his most recent album, Sorry You Couldn't Make It, how he got started in music opening for musicians like Sam Cooke, and how he got the name Swamp Dogg during a self-discovery journey. We also listen to the new album in full!

Tune in!

"Holy bananas, Batman! What. A. Year. Everything was shitty and probably the only year I can confidently say for everyone, this year was HELL. But not so fast there, Robin! (Idk why I'm going with this Batman theme, it's the end of a very long year, give me a break...) The music that came out this year and all the amazing musician I got to chat with even over the phone during lockdowns really saved my life.

So here is part one of two of my favorite chitchats with bands I had in 2020. (Make sure to tune in again next week for the second and final part!)

"This year, instead of trying to keep the peace between yourself and your conservative uncle, closed-mindedly religious aunt, borderline racist grandpa, or whoever try diving headfirst into that hard convo! That's right, this holiday is offensive anyway, so why not get some use out of it and tell your privileged cousin why they can't be for Trump and not racist at the same time or try to get your grandma to understand why a gender natural bathroom in the workplace is important?

So, press play and let these songs fuel the fire to your passion and help spread some humanity in the world this Thanksgiving. By the way, I assuming (and hope!) you're going all this in a pandemic-safe way. So that means maybe doing your family gathering outdoors this year or virtually or not at all!
