Two generations of favorite XRT artists teamed up for a John Lennon inspired song called “Let Love Reign.” Robbie Robertson, guitarist for The Band and who shared songwriting duties with the late, great Levon Helm, got help from Glen Hansard. Also dug into new Death Cab For Cutie and more from Of Monsters And Men who are at the Aragon Ballroom next month. The whole playlist is below and playlists from past New Noises at Nine are right here.
An easy way to support the artists you hear on WXRT is to buy their music! You’re doing double the good when you spend your money at local, independent, or family-owned music stores. Let me know what you find the next time you go crate diving! My handle on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter is RyanArnoldRocks.
