    Fall Music Preview

    In the coming months, music fans will get a bumper crop of comeback albums, madness at the Met, and a Springsteen reunion with the E Street Band. Today on Soundcheck: a fall preview of pop and classical music in New York. Plus, British songwriter Jamie T talks about bad behavior on his American debut, Panic Prevention.

Autumn Sounds

The pop and classical music worlds roll out their biggest guns every fall. This year is no exception. We get a look at what's on tap from New York Daily News chief pop music critic Jim Farber and Billboard classical music critic Anastasia Tsioulcas.

Jamie T

Young English songwriter Jamie T makes music about drinking, sex, and general bad behavior. He delivers those songs in a version of English that's bratty, streetwise, and almost completely foreign to most Americans. He joins us to talk about his US debut, Panic Prevention.
