Yeeehaw and Howdy!* I’ll be covering Edge of Americana tonight so that your illustrious host Josh Bearman can juggle babies and banjos.
But don’t worry! He gave me plenty of music to fill your Labor Day Americana, Folk and Bluegrass needs!Â

Galaxy Girl – 20190829 – Sangre Dreams
The cooler weather has shifted my brain into a slower, gothier, math-rockier, more emotional soundscape mode. This just happens sometimes.
Tune in for music by Rodan, Serqet, Amanda Palmer, Portishead, Your Friend, Bibio, Oh Sees AND MUCH MORE!
You might need some extra coffee, but the musical trade-off is worth it.

Galaxy Girl – 20190801 – Making Magic Happen
Oh gosh, so much happening this week!
First night of Commonwealth Of Notions Volume NINE is coming up this Saturday, so I’ll have some music from the artists that will be performing this first weekend.
Also, new music release by Piranha Rama this weekend, and some Sebadoh since I saw them recently. Plus an assortment of other bands that popped into my head like Television, Jesus and Mary Chain, The Raymond Brake, and several local bands. I’m still figuring it out but hopefully I can make the magic happen this morning!

Galaxy Girl – 20190725 – Beachy and Numb
Today’s going to be an odd one for me.
I’d already pulled together a mostly upbeat and beachy sort of show, and then I found out that my friend and fellow WRIR volunteer Jay Westermann had died. So it’s going to be an odd combination of upbeat music and a possibly numb demeanor on my part. I’ve got a few songs at the end that I hope Jay would enjoy as much as we all enjoyed working with him.
Rest well, friend. Your radio family will miss you terribly.

OOH, do me a favor! It’s going to be VERY hot for the next few days. And when the humidity is high, sweat won’t evaporate as quickly, which keeps your body from releasing heat as fast as it may need to. Here are some hot weather safety tips. Please take care of yourself!
Hot Weather Safety Tips:
- Stay indoors in an air-conditioned location as much as you can.
- Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids even if you don’t feel thirsty.
- Schedule outdoor activities carefully.
- Wear loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing and sunscreen.
- Pace yourself.
- Take cool showers or baths to cool down. A cool damp handkerchief
- Be alert to signs of heat-related illness. Know what to look for and check on other workers that might be at high risk.
- Avoid direct sun. Find shade or block out the sun if possible.
- Check on a friend or neighbor and have someone do the same for you.
- Never leave children or pets in cars.
- Eat smaller meals. Eat fruits high in fiber and natural juice. Avoid high protein foods.
- Avoid getting sunburn. Use sunscreen and wear a hat if working outside.
