The Sunrise Ocean Bender sets sail every Friday morning, 3 â 6 a.m., to find something for your ears, and something for your head ⦠From psych to prog to pop and whatever tributary we can find on the way ⦠and right back around again. There might be a map, but the destination is up for grabs. If it all goes right, we may just get lost. Meet me at the muster station ⦠thereâs no better way to start your freakend.
First things first: did ya vote? Once a day, like the good doctor said ⦠Donât know what Iâm on about? Check wrir.orgâs front page and you can get the skinny on the refresheverything.com/wrir grant and how WRIR needs YOU to help us build a Community Newsroom ⦠you can vote more than once.
Itâs OK this time. Go ahead, stuff the ballot box.
On to the business at hand ⦠lots of ground to cover this morning. Weâll get back to the new Todd Parker and the WItches {check last weeks playlist for interview info with Parker and check the comment on the playlist ⦠sweet indeed â¦}, a new track from Chris Olley, Beatles, Trower, F/i, our very own {well, at least half} Monday Machines, Genesis, Mercury Rev ⦠and the list goes on â¦
Thanks for checking in â¦

P.S. Last track is not Casper Brötzmann ⦠never trust the commentator â¦
