Christmas music from here and there and now and then. Hits, obscurities, the reassuringly familiar, and the disconcertingly strange. Host David Garland unwraps his seasonal gift for you, trimming your sonic tree with audio ornaments ranging from Bing Crosby, Cary Grant, and Doris Day, to Rotary Connection, Danielson, and Sufjan Stevens.
Quinn Walker
Sunday, December 14, 2008
Quinn Walker is excited. He’s excited to perform music: he’s a one-man band, singing, playing guitar, electronics, and drums all at once. He’s excited to write songs: a prolific composer, his first commercial album is a double CD set culled from the six or more albums he’s self-produced in just the last couple of years. Quinn Walker joins host David Garland to talk about his music and to give the first-ever radio performance of his exciting and surprising songs. (Originally aired Jan. 27, 2008.)

Cameron Hull
Sunday, December 07, 2008
Songwriter and singer Cameron Hull is easy to enjoy, but hard to place. His songs sound a bit like folk music of the 1940s and ’50s, but with a modern edginess. He mixes humor and sincerity in a disconcerting way, and his singing voice displays aspects of his operatic background without sounding at all stuffy. Hearing Cameron, you might guess he’s an old eccentric who lives in the wilderness, but in fact he’s a young eccentric who lives in Brooklyn. Cameron Hull joins host David Garland to perform and talk about his music. This show first aired July 15, 2007.
