A special moon-themed birthday episode for Jack, starting with Jill Barber singing us to sleep with a lullaby. Then, the inimitable John Maus welcomes the guest of honour by singing along to Molly Nillson.
We sample alt/indie history with some Echo & the Bunnymen, Cat Power, and Radiohead. And we hear Sandro Perri and Mark Kozelek from, See You on the Moon!, the great Canadian indie kids’ album.
Air can never get enough of the moon, it seems, so we wrap it all up with a post-Moon Safari visit to a an intergallactic lounge, because the future should be rad like that. Send us your favourite anit-/bittersweet/angsty/lovey love songs for next week’s show, and thanks for listening!
