Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
Growing up in New York, I was raised with the assumption that Labor Day is the last day of Summer. Back east, it seemed fitting. Come September 1—as the days grow shorter, the nights cooler—”the body” craves the change in the seasons.
Here in the Canyon, man and his environment stay still in September. In fact, yesterday was one of the first warm days of Summer. We Californians cruise the month of September to Halloween with our finest weather of the year. So, I guess each September we “Angelinos” go back to school shopping…but our weather? Well, our weather is here to stay.
Last week, while enjoying my summer break from work and IH, I had a bit of time to relax and think about this week’s show. Somewhere during my R&R I was inspired by my cool and beautiful wife Susan to dedicate this set to the new female voice.
The are quite of few strong women releasing albums and hitting the road next month. Props to them! After all, being a chick is hard work. Well, it looks that way sometimes?
What the fuck should I know on this last weekend of Summer, save this here Idelic Hour mix is mostly songs written and sung by females.
“Baby, may your summer days be endless…XO”
The Idelic Hit of the Week:
Julia Holter – In The Green Wild
