You Might As Well Walk If The Company’s Bad

THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE:

…with Jon Pratt! Pate’s frontman plays an October House concert (which I presume is an homage to The Service). Primarily a survey of Jon’s more recent solo works from “Geologic Time” onward, but he threw in “Long Hitch” from All The Fixins and “Rope Around the Moon” from Pate for all the old heads.

Death Cab For Cutie plays KEXP.

Morphine: Hear the posthumous “Spaceman Charm.”

Star’s Revenge shares “Don’t Worry Dynamite.”

Liquid Mike shares “Inanimate Object.”

Toro y Moi shares “Motive” and “Proof.”

The Songwriters Hall of Fame has announced its nominees for 2027.

Rush is headed to The Sphere.
