Jon Natchez of the band Beirut is on the show this week

Jon Natchez is the guy with the beard playing the French Horn

Jon is a woodwind / horn / ukulele / fill in the blank player for Zach Condon's 9 piece indie orchestra better known as the band Beirut. He came on the show to chat about the bands ties to New Mexico, a favorite tour stop he did in Amsterdam and he told me about some of his favorite beirut songs and gave me some meaning behind some of the tunes... Check it out! Plus I have first plays on new material by The Mountain Goats and Jack Johnson, not to mention more new stuff by the Helio Sequence and School of Language.



Enjoy.
