Five albums into their career, Brighton's The Go! Team remain as vibrant and hard to pin down as ever.

Durand Jones and the Indications Jun 08, 2018

Show notes

Durand Jones and The Indications' earliest beginnings showed a band with a ragged passion for playing soul music, and with a debut album under their belt and plenty of road-tested performance experience, they're still the same hungry band. Joining Cheryl Waters in the KEXP live room, the band discuss their formation and perform four songs from their debut album. Recorded 04/03/2018. 4 songs - Can't Keep My Cool, Make A Change, Is It Any Wonder, Smile

Soccer Mommy May 30, 2018

Show notes

There's a precision to the songwriting of Soccer Mommy's Sophie Allison - her songs are vivid, moving snapshots executed with silvery guitar licks and deceptively brilliant choruses.

Superorganism May 25, 2018

Show notes

Superorganism's brilliantly colored songs sound like the pieces of a clockwork pop song executed by a Rube Goldberg machine - it's intricate, fascinating, and loads of fun. The band perform three songs from their self-titled debut in this session with Cheryl Waters. Recorded 03/23/2018. 3 songs - It's All Good, Everybody Wants To Be Famous, Something For Your M.I.N.D.

Buffalo Tom May 23, 2018

Show notes

The members of the long-running Boston outfit Buffalo Tom may have aged, but their melodic scratch still channels a vintage passion.

Mint Field May 18, 2018

Show notes

Mint Field's debut album, Pasar De Las Luces, found sisters Amor Amezcua and Estrella Sánchez spending two years crafting its beautiful, gauzy shoegaze tones, and in their debut appearance in the KEXP Live Room, the Tijuana, Mexico group's shimmering tones echo with an aqueous glow. Joining DJ Chilly, the group perform four songs from the album and discuss the process of making the record. Recorded 03/25/2018. 4 songs - Quiero Otoño De Nuevo, Cambios Del Pasar, Ojos En El Carro, Boötes Void
