Week of 09/03/16
It’s labor day weekend! We celebrate the nice long break from work by playing some of our favorite work-themed tracks. Some of them are all about taking a break, like party band Jamaica, some are all about actually working, like Tim Heidcker’s half-serious Work From Home, and then some are seriously about what’s messed up about work in America, like Sufjan’s track. Plus, you’ll hear new music from Angel Olsen, Cass McCombs, and Megafauna (not to be confused with Megafauna). And don’t forget to follow BTR on Facebook!
