Blowing out 75 birthday candles for Stevie Wonder today! That’s always a pleasure on this show. I make it clear that there are just a few artists you can always play and Stevie Wonder is someone you simply can’t exhaust — at least in my mind. Hope you agree! I’ll be playing your Stevie picks for the rest of the week… looking forward to that!Plus new music from Ezra Furman, Elkka, Yannis & the Yaw and more.

I miss my mom. She isn’t dead, so it’s a little weird to write. But I miss her in the way I miss a close friend I haven’t called in a while. And in either situation, it’s selfish not to think they’d appreciate a call. We don’t keep in touch like we should. Or how I think we’re supposed to, which is more often. In the movies, those relationships seem closer. It seems like other people stay close in reality, too. In my head, that’s the right way. In my head, I wonder how they do it.
