Ep 126: "Hear Me Out"

R.E. Seraphin, whose album Tiny Shapes is out now on Paisley Shirt Records ( bandcamp ) evokes a pre-indie powerpop, less fastidious and more directly connected to rock n roll itself, free of cynicism and full of heart. If you’ve ever lost yourself singing karaoke to “September Gurls” -and- “Summer of ‘69”, then you just may be the kind of true sincerity person that Seraphin’s songs speak for.

I hope you can support two things today:

BFF.fm has launched a musician relief fund at BFF.fm/relief. Please support the fund, and if you are experiencing financial hardship and need help, please apply.

BFF.fm’s Spring Fundraiser is happening now: BFF.fm has taken it to another level during shelter in place, solving remote live broadcasting on the fly to keep 100 DJs on the air. Let’s keep this local resource alive, and give General Manager Amanda and our amazing volunteers the resources to run it, 24/7, plus live gigs like the Besties Bash.

Thank you🙏
