    Happy Spring Pledge Drive! We’re kicking it off with a juicy show, complete with everything from the fresh-in-the-inbox, synth-sprinkled soul of Meshell Ndegeocello to classic Stephanie Mills (who turns 66 today). Also in the mix, some recent heaters out of Australia inspired by the massive 6-night trip sweepstakes we have for you, alongside Bad Bunny x Gorillaz, Flaming Lips, Tupac, and the killer jazz group that Jamie Lee Curtis discovered on KCRW and became obsessed with. Where else can you hear this many artists across the sonic spectrum played back to back?

    Support KCRW so we can keep the hand-curated tunes coming! When you give any amount today, you unlock an additional $100 for KCRW and we’ll send you a snazzy limited edition motel keychain. Major key. Join the club!
