On this week's show, we debuted new tracks from Janelle Monae, Elvis Costello & The Roots, Nightmares on Wax, and Shy FX. We also introduced you to Minneapolis-based MC Lizzo. Her latest album was produced by Doomtree's Lazerbeak and she will be in Milwaukee at Mad Planet with Har Mar Superstar, and Surgeons In Heat. Finally, we gave you a taste of the Blue Note debut album from one-time college football player Gregory Porter. NPR has called Porter the next great male jazz singer.
