Don’t shuffle Series
overlooked music havens
There are cities all over the United States that have huge pockets of music history. The sounds of these municipalities may have gone on to influence a nation and some haven’t; yet they all document the experience of these places. Sit back, relax, and don’t shuffle any of these.
Madrigal Memphis
Be honest you’re here for those sweet guitar licks that Memphis, Tennessee has perfected. Don’t worry there’s a little something here for everyone, and that’s no bluff.
House Calls
We're all at home, but that doesn't mean we can't party Chicago-style. Just pick up your phone the jams always make house calls.
Bay Area Yodler
The nine counties of the Bay Area make up the most liberal parts of America. Here the personal is political. Go Vote!
Detroit Sounds Like
There’s more to Detroit than Motown. It’s a legendary music city, and I made this deluxe edition to show you just how important it is. Say nice things about Detroit.
The Gateway Getup
In the early days of what we call America, St. Louis was known as the gateway to the American west. This beacon-like state brought its homegrown talents to the world.
Crescent City Concerto
Jazz was born in New Orleans but the bayou also birthed the framework for rhythm and blues, piped out the zydeco stylings and dropped bars from ward to ward. Time to get that pot a boilin’ your ears are hungry.
Seattle Is Sonic
There’s angst and dramatics, it’s grunge and dripping with musical flavors. Pull over that hoodie and prepare for the seasonal emotions and the weather. #SeattleIsSonic
Houston we have a playlist
It's sweet, it's spicy, chopped & screwed, with a little blues tossed in too. bump this in the slab real slow so everyone can enjoy it. #HTownDown
can’t mute d.c.
If you move where the culture is king you can’t silence the jams. as the home of our nation’s capitol, the DMV has a lot to say. #dontmutedc
Miscellaneous
Making playlists is a fun activity. Practice makes perfect, although in my unbiased opinion these are all perfect.

There’s a special relationship between Black women and their hair, it’s high time we celebrate its many forms.

Two thousand eighteen was a helluva year. Ups and downs, ebbs and flows of emotion. Here are some tunes that helped to ground me this year.
