In The Groove: New music from bigboihums, Annahstasia, happy birthday to the godmother of rock ‘n’ roll Sister Rosetta Tharpe
Listen to “In the Groove” with Ryan Patrick Hooper weekdays from noon-3 p.m. ET on 101.9 WDET.
Annahstasia is readying her new album and “Villain” is our first taste of it, plus Detroit’s own Carmel Liburdi covers “First Day Of Spring” (originally by Gandharvas), y’all really liked when I played some Cat Stevens, new music from Teddy Swims & GIVĒON and I am absolutely obsessed with this calming, transfixing acapella covers that bigboihums is dropping, like his cover of Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun.” Let’s get him on the show!
Also, had to celebrate the birth of the true creator of rock ‘n’ roll Sister Rosetta Tharpe, who is apparently going to be played in a movie by Lizzo (who also has some great new tracks I gotta play for you).
