Confession: While recording this week’s Buzz Bands LA Show, I had an equipment failure; the mic didn’t work. But who wants to hear me talk anyhow. So in preparing this week’s show — starting at 11 a.m. on The Independent FM — I sequenced some new and relevant and delicious songs. It makes for a good mixtape. And I have provided an annotated playlist below, with things I would have said had the mic been working.

Tune in. Or stream the archive below.
