We’ve got some perfect tunes for you on this fine rainy Wednesday morning. Grace Jones’ 1981 release “Walking in the Rain” and “When It Rains” by Moroccan artist Saib will have you ready to cozy up with a warm drink by the window.
Next, hear a new track from Korean American artist Miss Grit called “Follow the Cyborg.” The song is inspired by growing up in the Midwest feeling a bit out of place, and channels that existence in their debut album about a cyborg.
Get an appetizer of Danielle Ponder’s Live From KCRW HQ session, and then go here to hear more of Danielle and Novena's conversation, and all six of the songs she performed during her visit. The full web audio is the only place where you can hear Danielle's show-stopping live version of Radiohead's "Creep." Perfect for a rainy day deep dive, under the covers, or in your car stuck in traffic. Get a taste of her live performance magic and then experience it yourself IRL — you can catch Ponder live at Disney Hall on Nov. 11 AND at the Youtube Theater opening for Young the Giant on Nov. 12.
