Monday Breakfast Blend – Women Art Revolution presents:

With the exception of Christmas (which is pretty easy), I’m not really one for making seasonally themed shows. I hope you are using today’s MLK holiday to do something good in the world. As for me, I’ll be doing some good by playing a bunch of tunes you should have heard by now, but probably haven’t.

Get updates and previews by liking this show on Facebook. Listen to the show again in the archive player for the next two weeks.
