Ladies First
After spending a couple weeks roaming around the northwest exploring cities and forests alike, ZNote and I, Shelmatic, returned to our beautiful city of San Francisco and chopped it up on the air waves with an episode that put Ladies First. With Aisha and Honeyknuckles takin their turn in the forest this weekend, the two of held in down in the studio with a tribute to all the strong, beautiful talented female musicians that have shifted our worlds and our ears.
I wanted to take a moment to highlight the women that have influenced my music tastes as well as the way I live my life. This episode, I put together a wide and varying selection including the likes of Aretha Franklin, Roxanne Shante and Bjork. For possibly the first time on Sanguine Soul, we even took it to indie rock and my high school days with Rilo Kiley and Jenny Lewis. Z-Note followed up with a funkalicious set starting off with the talented Alice Russell and ending with Sanguine Soul favorite, powerhouse Lyn Collins. This all played over the melodic grooves of Stonesthrow musician and producer, Georgia Anne Muldrow. As our friend Jeremy said, “How can you go wrong when you end with Jefferson Airplane’s White Rabbit?” We agree.
