Stream: Classic Alternative Playlist #1


Anddddd, here we go, onward and upward. As promised, here's a shiny new playlist featuring four hours of music for your listening pleasure. Classic Alternative Playlist #1 features Velvet Underground, The Smiths, Majesty Crush, New Order, XTC, Aztec Camera, Boo Radleys, Pavement, Pailhead, Joy Division, and so many more. Stream down below directly on Spotify. If you don't have a Spotify account, it's easy to sign up and stream for free. Understand that I'm hoping this is only a short term fix and there will be a better long term solution. But in the meantime, I wanted you to have some music to enjoy, and I hope you dig it.

A massive thank you for all the kind comments and words of support, it really does mean so much to me. It's been an emotional few days, but your love has helped me through it and I thank you for that. I will be responding to all the individual messages/tweets/emails shortly.

A few other music related tidbits:

1. The Charlatans are debuting their new single "Plastic Machinery" featuring Johnny Marr tomorrow. [Update: here it is].

2. Modern English were scheduled to play April 7th at the Loving Touch, however guitarist Gary McDowell recently needed to undergo emergency surgery and the remainder of the tour has been canceled. Refunds are available at point of purchase. Modern English have confirmed McDowell will be back and raring to go for the Retro Futura tour, which comes through town August 4th at Meadow Brook. More details on the tour are available here.

3. Don't forget about the upcoming Psychedelic Furs/Robyn Hitchcock show at the Majestic on April 11th. These legendary acts don't get to Detroit that often, so be sure to take advantage. Link to tickets is here.

Keep smashing the paradigm. XO
