Dawn moods for the early birds, courtesy of Sleepier & Impey aka Spirit Blue.

joy in the deep woods w/ biolzz

A mix of songs and authors that I would listen to in a deep forest when I'm immersed in my own thoughts with no one else around. A moment of self-reflection, social distancing and of course total joy.

This month’s show is a “Poetry Special”, on the relationship between poetry and music for black artists. This show features an hour of poems and music by black artists engaging in commentary about their lived experiences and the structures that shape them.
