In The Groove: New music Friday with System Olympia, Leon Bridges, The Smile + Caribou
Listen to “In the Groove” with Ryan Patrick Hooper weekdays from noon-3 p.m. ET on 101.9 WDET.
"In the Groove" host Ryan Patrick Hooper in WDET's studios in Detroit.
The way music is released these days — always, all the time — it kinda makes new music Friday feel a little dated. But when it comes to major releases, Friday still remains king for album drops (a lot of fresh singles arrive 48 hours before).
Anyway, I brought in a mix of major and indie releases — again, a term that may not matter as much anymore — for this Friday, including System Olympia, Shigeto & Kesswa, Leon Bridges, The Smile and many more.
Check the playlist below and listen to the episode for two weeks after it airs using the player above.
