Nonstop Pop

On this week’s show: A first set featuring a hat trick of Ohio sounds, from wobbly jangle (Artificial Go) to art-punk (Big Fat Head) to lo-fi indie rock (long odds). Punk from Leipzig (The Broom), NYC (Providers) and Portland, OR (CHERRY CHEEKS). Jangle from Belfast (Neil Brogan) to coast-to-coast in the USA (Rob & Ellen), and California shoegaze from LA (Lavender Blush) and Sacramento (Desario). Plus vintage NZ indie (Spectrum Is Green), dark Spanish synth-punk (Les Feüilles Mörtes) and transmissions from a bleepy-skronky universe in Richmond, VA (Radon Abatement).
