In The Groove: Mdou Moctar, Salin, Girls Of The Internet, plus the moody side of Motown
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 inside WDET's studios in the Cass Corridor.
Sliding into the final month of the year mixing in some classics with the new stuff. Girls of the Internet, Salin, Mdou Moctar, La Lom and others will certainly end up on plenty of best of 2024 lists (including my own).
But before I completely slide into that mode, there’s some comfort food here, too, with Dr. Dog, Wire, Soulwax and some moody Motown sets from Stevie Wonder and the Four Tops.
Check the playlist below and listen to the episode for two weeks after it airs using the player above.
