Okay my friends here it is, my first Playlist of the year - Radio Free California Episode 2301!
Lots of indie music to start 2023, including Robot! Attack!, YI, Sirimiri, Kiffie, MOULE, houjean, Kink Artist Big Woman and much more, and oh yes, new albums from Vulfpeck and Weezer, yet another new mix of Tom's Diner, and a whole lot more. Enjoy!
As per usual, my ranty NSFW blog version will be up later today.
Yep, this happened. The single is out Tuesday - 1 song, 4 mixes.
Elusive Green by Chris Reed and the Anime Raiders.
YouTube version of the radio show my new song is on. about 1.5 hours in, but I'm on! Fairly eclectic mix of indie music, from country to pop to jazz to alternative. playing all this week on syndicated radio world wide.
Thanks everyone!

Here I am thinking that it's going to be an all indie first Radio Free California for 2023, and then Weezer drops their best album in ages.
There is a Russian cover band called Leonid and Friends. They do AMAZING covers of Chicago songs, and one of their lead singers was Serge Tiagniryadno. But Serge isn't Russian - he's Ukrainian and lives in Kyiv. When the war broke out he had to leave the band and he joined in the fighting. He's still there.His wife and children are now living in Poland.
He was working on a solo album when the war broke out. This song is my favorite.

Radio Free California - 2022 on Random Play and a few final thoughts for this FRUSTRATING year.
I thought about making a "best of" list, but I realized that I'd come up with something different every time I tried. So here is a highlight reel, cultivated from all of the 2022 RFC's. Feel free to put together your own list. I recommend putting this on random play...

Here is the blog version of Radio Free California Episode 2251. NSFW.

And here is probably the last Radio Free California for the year - Radio Free California Episode 2251.
Roger Waters opened his shows with the opener for this week, so I'm doing the same. Not a ton of new music out this week, but here's a few you might want to hear, including Vulfpeck, Magaziine, The Ceys, Iggy Pop and more for your listening pleasure. Enjoy!
I will be doing a "best of" list later this week.
Video is out now. Single, with 4 other mixes, is out January 3rd.

As I have stated before, I loathe Christmas music. When you're not a Christian this season can feel like you're being trampled to death at every turn.
But I love music. So I've compiled my own list (which I tweak yearly) of Christmas music that I can listen to, some of it quite profane and some of it more traditional, for your listening pleasure. I also added the only New Years song I've ever liked.
Yes, THAT song is on there. So is THAT one. Enjoy!
Cory Wong & Metropole Orkest - "Simon" (LIVE IN AMSTERDAM)
Fishbone - When Problems Arise
1989 - the year of Milli Vanilli. What everyone forgets was that while the band was fake the music was pretty damned good. Career defining albums from XTC, The Cult, 10,000 Maniacs, RHCP, Nenah Cherry, Kate Bush, B-52's, Peter Murphy, Concrete Blonde, Stone Roses, Dramarama, and Michael Penn releases an album that would have a direct impact on my own career the following year.
Here's some music you should know.
Chris Reed. Indie rocker. Gin drinker. I Dissent.
Leader of Chris Reed & The Anime Raiders, Creator/Songwriter/Producer of Franciscan Monks of Acies Mundi.
