Light in the Attic w/ Emilee Booher

Since starting in a basement apartment in Seattle back in 2001, Light In The Attic has established itself as one of the best and brightest reissue labels around. With releases ranging from D’Angelo to Serge Gainsbourg, Lewis to Betty Davis, Sly Stone to Karen Dalton, LITA prides itself on the breadth of its output.

Funk Country

Culture journalist Jamal Khadar takes a trip through country music’s hidden roots and surprising global connections—in search of a more personal, nuanced view of what it means to be a country fan. From African-Country crossovers to Jamaica’s country connection, and the continuous role of Southern Soul in remaking country.
