We at episode 101 are still the great so far as of yet found purveyor of new music that mostly goes unlistened, but is there whenever ears are available to put on the new music weekly podcast we do. I am Shred. I was on WBCN for a good 20-years having a good amount of fun, getting to be on the radio and entertain folks and now much later we have arrived here at our new media. This week, as we do it, hear new songs by heavy weights like The Cure, Momma, an unbelievable new single by Halsey, the mysterious Wesghost, and currently in a couple local colleges, Ava Della Pietra. All in a fantastic under 19 minute feeding dosage.
