This week we're kicking things off with a new single from Downhaul ahead of the release of their new album, Proof. We've also got new music from Will Stratton, L'Rain, Lou Barlow, Anjimile, Bad Athlete, and more in this episode!
I chat with Autogramm a Vancouver/Chicago-based band who released their newest album 'No Rules,' which I spin on the episode.

Comfy is the super endearing, earworm-inducing project of Rochester-based musician Connor Benincasa. Joined by a virtual army of musical friends and co-conspirators, the “band” crafts a malleable array of genres from pure power pop to bedroom grooves and indie garage bangers. Here, Connor is joined by Aurora Case for a low-key, ultra-cozy exclusive performance.
Volume For is available now from Dadstache Records.
