On the next Rules Free Radio with Steve Caplan, we’ll hear new releases from drummer Johnathan Blake, singer-songwriter Laura Groves, Ray LaMontagne, Sigur Ros, Sufjan Stevens, Elephant Stone, a remix album of the music of Bob Marley and The Wailers called Africa Unite, Holly Cook, Sparkle Division, and Baltimore’s Turnstile along with BADBADNOTGOOD. In the second hour, we’ll get into some Power Pop and some of the covers of some of the music that inspired it starting with a new single by The Half Cubes. That set will include recent music from Robin Taylor Zander, The Flashcubes, and Irene Pena. Elvis Costello, Beach House, Jerry Garcia, Marti Jones, The Overtures, Game Theory, The Pursuit of Happiness, and others. In the last set of the third hour, we’ll remember Brazillian composer, pianist, organist, and trombonist Joao Donato who we lost in July.
