Galaxy Girl – 20171221 – Christmas Cookies
I can’t resist the call of holiday music. You know I love it so.
I have a big Santa sack full of Christmasy music for you this week. Not the kind you’ve heard in all the stores, but some you might be familiar with if you’re a diehard WRIR listener. We’ve got trees, bells, cookies, droids, dogs, and definitely some Bionicles. Sharon Jones, Jimmy Jamz & Xtopher, Dengue Fever, No BS! Brass, Parry Gripp, El Vez, Fats Waller, and much more!!! It’s like a big tray of assorted Christmas cookies, but for your ears.

Galaxy Girl – 20171214 – Wintry Mix
It’s going to be a wintry mix on the Blend this morning! Lots of songs about snow. Some long. Some short. Putting together this playlist made me realize that most of the snow songs I have are pretty mellow. So you might want to listen in your PJs and a soft robe while drinking a mug of cocoa. In the queue: Galaxie 500, Kurt Vile, Superchunk, Positive No, Damian Jurado, Mono, Dave Watkins, Belle and Sebastian, AND MUCH MORE! Thanks for listening! Stay warm out there!

Galaxy Girl – 20171130 – Scalding Hot Coffee Dance
This week’s Thursday Breakfast Blend is sort of a feel-good show. Some of my old favorites mixed with a little bit indie pop, a bunch of drums, a healthy scoop of new music, a mini French dance party, and a dash of silly. Elvis Costello, Juniore, Alvvays, DJ Rekha, King Khan, Carole King, Wreckless Eric, AND MUCH MORE. Thanks for listening!

Galaxy Girl – 20171116 – Age of Consent
Sometimes when I’m pulling music for my show, the world around me filters in. I kept trying to NOT be inspired by the news this week. But the jukebox in my brain wouldn’t cooperate. Tune in for songs by New Order, Air, The Halo Benders, VV, Fugazi, XTC, The Electras, and much more.
Plus, listen in for a chance to win tickets to see Shana Falana with Manzara, Serqet, and Horse Culture at the Camel next Tuesday!
Thanks for listening, and enjoy the show!

Galaxy Girl – 20171102 – Decadence Requiem (Don’t forget to Vote!)
My brain has been in Halloween mode for so long that I had a hard time figuring out what direction to go with this week’s radio show. It ended up being fairly laid back. A thick and fuzzy blend with a decent about of new music in it. But I think it still has enough variety that you won’t fall back asleep. Grab your morning brew and join me.
Also…don’t forget that Election Day is Nov 7! Exercise your rights.

Galaxy Girl – 20171012 – Spooky
It’s week 2 of Halloweeny music here on the Thursday Blend, and where else but a community-powered radio station like WRIR can you hear a Cumbia-esque version of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”? I dare say NOWHERE!
I hope you enjoy the show! Next week is our fund drive, so please take a few moments to consider how WRIR adds to your daily routine, and help keep us going with your pledge of support. Thank you for listening, and for helping to make this great station happen.
