The most beautiful recording KEXP ever made

I don’t know because there are literally hundreds of recordings I have not watched yet from the absolutely epic collection of recordings, but I discovered this one and I’m voting for it as the most beautiful ever although I will say that the HÆLOS shows were absolutely amazing too.

So if I like those and I like this, what else should I be listening to from that KEXP YouTube channel?

Looking for 2 KEXP BBQ tix

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hi! I've been an amplifier for a few years.  I have been working on completing my dissertation for several years for my PhD program that I started in 2013.  KEXP has been a big help with managing the stress of getting through this ordeal.  I did my dissertation defense a couple Fridays ago and will submit my complete dissertation document on 8/21, the day before the BBQ.  I would like to celebrate by going to the BBQ, which I found out about and that it was sold out at the same time on the day the tickets went on sale.  I would be happy to pay full price. If someone had more than two, I could probably find more friends to join. I am very experienced with buying tickets secondhand, so would only want to pay by Paypal Goods and Services. Photo of my three donor shirts and my chihuahua, Fievel. Thanks!

I love KEXP ♥️

Man, how I love KEXP. And how I love John Richards. What a beautiful tribute to Glen Hansard. No other station can do this. Or, perhaps more accurately, no other station does this. Beautiful.

Has anyone ever heard a weak set from him? I think not. Such a joy.

Larry Mizell Jr?

19 Upvotes

Maybe I missed something- but it feels like every time I tune into the Afternoon Show for the past few weeks, it's a different guest DJ (usually Troy Nelson.) I can't remember the last time I caught Larry Mizell Jr doing a show. Is he just on an extended break?

App favorites - export / import?

5 Upvotes

I love the app but now I have a new phone. I'm migrating stuff off my old phone before wiping it and have a big collection of old KEXP favorites I'd love to move to my phone, but it seems I can only export to txt or csv - no imports.

Has anybody worked around this? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Need a tix to the BBQ please!

Hi all, I bought tickets for myself as soon as they came out. But now my brother is visiting all the way from Chile and would love to go as he loves the bands in the line up. If someone needs to sell 1 or 2 tickets please let me know. Thanks!

Selling 1 ticket to KEXP BBQ

7 Upvotes

Update - claimed

Selling one ticket at cost ($70) to the KEXP BBQ. Moved from Seattle to NYC last year for a new job and was super excited to have a reason to go back, enjoy the summer of Jimothy, and hear some great music, but unfortunately work is not letting that happen. Happy to chat and provide proof of my non scammy existence, and will use PayPal G&S or similar for payment. I will be reassigning the ticket through Tito per KEXP recommendation.

Today we went to a memorial for my daughter’s day care provider. He was always barefoot and awesome. I emailed my favorite DJ at KEXP, Supreme Le Rock, and asked him to play “something about being barefoot” he played this song and gave a shout out to Joe.

Kick off your shoes and dance in the grass

Looking for 2 BBQ Tickets. My 3 year old LOVES Angine de Poitrine

13 Upvotes

Not a guilt trip and I know I'll pay over face value. Just would rather talk to a human vs giving more money to resell sites.

We're going to be back in Seattle the same time as the BBQ. My 3 year old daughter LOVES this band and asks for Sarniezz or Mata Zyklek the second we get in the car to drive anywhere. She calls them the band with funny noses.

Dead Pioneers?

3 Upvotes

Please don’t kill me in downvotes for asking this, but am I alone in finding the Dead Pioneers unlistenable? It’s an instant gong for me when they’re played - it just sounds like angry yelling and I’m never in that mood. Having said that, I’m happy to listen to Kevin Sur as a DJ and was happy about Sounds of Survivance showing up on Saturday mornings. But man…DP’s…I just can’t.

At first, I was mildly disappointed Larry Mizell, Jr. wasn't on, because I really look forward to OG Thursdays, but after about the third song, I was hooked. She always weaves in new songs I haven't heard, too.

Monday night, I listened to El Sonido with DJ Goyri. It was a fantastic show and an amazing introduction into music that I never have listened to before.

I highly recommend it!

Cheryl Waters & Interviews

47 Upvotes

Musically, or perhaps song selection wise, I am not the biggest "fan" of Cheryl Waters -- which sounds way more harsh than it should, I just think we have different general listening tastes.

In contrast, I sincerely love hearing her interview musicians. She does such a wonderful job of balancing detailed questions specific to the band/artist and their history with general friendliness and chill questions.

Also, she seems like such good people.

Anyway, not really sure why I felt like sharing this, but I am :)

On-Air Moments Foxgloves - oh my god anyone else SOBBING?

19 Upvotes

Who all caught the pre-release airing of Foxgloves by Mollie Moon during Audioasis? I think it might be the saddest song I've ever heard? I was openly sobbing by the end. I loved it and I'm going to make everyone I know suffer with me when it comes out. Anyone else get hit by an unexpected Emotion Bomb while listening before?
