No need for the music to bring the heat today because it’s frickin’ hot out, so things heated up quickly with some songs about the seemingly ever-present blazing sun. We paid tribute to the late, great William “Skinny” Tenn, looked at some upcoming shows, heard a bit more from Shawna Caspi who was the guest on Fly with your Shadow this week, rediscovered Storyhill and heard some great new music!
