NEW KCRW podcast: Bent By Nature

I’m incredibly honored to be co-hosting the new KCRW podcast “Bent By Nature: Deirdre O’Donoghue and the Lost SNAP! Archives.” In my opinion, Deirdre was the best damn DJ in the world, also my inspiration, my mentor and my friend. She produced and hosted an incredible free-form radio show on KCRW from 1982-1991, making a home for bands as huge as REM and as obscure as The Reivers. This is a period of time mostly before Nirvana and before Indie was a genre, when discovering independent music was truly an art. Beginning October 28, you can hear all about it in the 10-episode podcast, but meanwhile you can enjoy a taste of the independent music she loved on this Spotify playlist! PS Please ‘like’ the playlist in Spotify if you can so more people will see it!
