This week’s edition of the broadcast is special. I love a good cover song, and there have been some fine ones I’ve found and/or played in the two years since the last covers show I’ve done.

Coinciding with Cal Poly’s radio station KCPR doing Covers Week throughout most of its shows, Urban Landscapes has chimed in with the goods from past classics to forthcoming material and everything in between. The show ended up being surprisingly more acoustic than I’ve expected, but it’s always nice how the show ends up coming out nice in the end when I just go with the flow. It’s how I usually approach each show (albeit, with a little bit of forethought), and I think it works well here.

I hope you’ll enjoy this week’s edition of Urban Landscapes. The week’s upcoming show is going to be heavy on the new music, and I’m telling you that the music I’m getting and hearing is gonna be great. Have a good week, and do tell your friends about the show. Peace.
