Heavy Rotation: 5 Songs Public Radio Can't Stop Playing
Tuesday, September 18, 2012
We never know what we're going to get when we ask NPR stations across the country to choose their favorite new music. Last month's installment of Heavy Rotation featured avant-garde classical, downtempo electronic music and worldly, boundary-less jazz — none of it predictable.
For September, we looked to WUWM in Milwaukee, KXLL in Alaska, WDET in the Motor City, North Country Public Radio in New York and Chicago's free-form station Vocalo. The results again run the sonic gamut, from blues (Eric Bibb) to breakbeats (Evan Bourgeois Lasry), and from hip-hop (Mig Mora) to indie rock (George Kuhar). Even country star Dwight Yoakam makes an appearance.
