Two very cool things (in addition to the regularly cool things) on this week's Big beat. First, we premiered
Deep Sea Diver "Impossible Weight" featuring
Sharon Van Etten to start the show AND
Amelia Meath from
Sylvan Esso talked with me over the weekend about their album
Free Love out next month. You can check out our chit-chat
here.
Big Beat Chicago Artist of the Week is
The Imperial Sound and the song
"Love Is Real" featuring the lovely
Sally Timms. The entire playlist is below and
online and you can check out playlists to past Big Beats
here.
I mention every week because it's so important - support the artists you hear on the Big Beat and WXRT by buying their music from, wehever you can, a local, independent, or family-owned music store and, when you head out crate diving, wear a mask and let me know what you find! Connect with me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. My handle on all three of 'em is RyanArnoldRocks.
The Big Beat is taking next Monday off for Labor Day and will return on September 14. Have a good, safe looooooong weekend!
Your pal,-Ryan A.
