As we ring in the new year we want to say thank you to all the listeners. Today we dig into the Shortwave archives to enjoy some live performances from guests such as Aimee Mann, Glen Phillips, Susanna Hoffs, Rhett Miller, YACHT, and much more.

Brooklyn based producer, multi-instrumentalist, and singer-songwriter Alex Wong AKA A City On A Lake sits down to chat on today’s episode of Shortwave. Alex talks about his progression from producer to singer, his first bands, and how the legend of Mexico City inspired his debut album. He also tells us about working in the woods with the band Delta Rae, his thoughts on today’s musical landscape, and how he started working with Ximena Sariñana. Plus, Ximena Sariñana joins Alex to play some live songs from his debut album, “A City On A Lake.”

The prolific, poetic, and profoundly original Gayle Skidmore stops by to chat on this week’s Shortwave. Gayle talks about driving to Brooklyn from San Diego for her fans, catching up to releasing the almost 1700 songs she has written, and her dulcimer accident. Gayle also shares how a label stole her piano, what inspired her to create her very own coloring book, and what’s on the horizon for her in the upcoming year. Plus, we are treated to a couple of live songs including “Zombie Heart” from her “Zombie Heart E.P.”
