Music floating on calmer seas is "netted" by my ears and released to the hungry listeners. It's a stringy catch, but frequently live and always delectable.

Songs for Newsworthy News with Michael Hearst |
|||||
|
When it comes to music and writing, Michael Hearst can't seem to sit still. Even with such satisfying songwriting projects as One Ring Zero, Songs for Ice Cream Trucks, in addition to the 18:59 Podcast, Hearst has a timely new venture - Songs for Newsworthy News. Topical events are set to song, and there's no more perfect day to invite Michael to present this on WFMU than the day before election day. |

Grog is anything that makes a pirate go "Arrrr!" Of course, gold, women, a cat, underwear, rain, oxygen and other pirates also make pirates go "Arrrr!", so by that definition...
