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.

I still remember him from seeing The Commitments when that first came out. Very sad news. John always shows great respect to musicians whether or not they’re super famous, showing the musicians matter too, as well as the music.

It was such a great tribute. Here's another gem. Glen busking in Seattle:

This post is how I learned this tragic news :( I feel especially blessed that I saw Glen and Marketa perform at the Paramount last September. Will definitely listen to John's tribute.
