Oct 13, 2022

Your morning music mix becomes extra “Short and Sweet” as we lend our airwaves to the Jan. 6 hearings. Fear not, however, as today’s compact MBE includes a David Lynch weather report, a long buried, Kevin Parker-produced gem from Melody’s Echo Chamber via Today’s Top Tune, and your chance to watch the future generation of rockstars emerge before your very eyes. This Saturday's show at UCSB’s Campbell Hall with local punk rock grrrls, The Linda Lindas is not to be missed. To put our money where our mouth is, we want to send you there for FREE. All you have to do is add your name into the running for five pairs of tickets right here. Go get ‘em, tiger!
