The Big Beat with Ryan Arnold
By 93XRT

 

Two very cool things (in addition to the regularly cool things) on this week's Big beat.  First, we premiered Deep Sea Diver "Impossible Weight" featuring Sharon Van Etten to start the show AND Amelia Meath from Sylvan Esso talked with me over the weekend about their album Free Love out next month.  You can check out our chit-chat here. Big Beat Chicago Artist of the Week is The Imperial Sound and the song "Love Is Real" featuring the lovely Sally Timms. The entire playlist is below and online and you can check out playlists to past Big Beats here.

I mention every week because it's so important - support the artists you hear on the Big Beat and WXRT by buying their music from, wehever you can, a local, independent, or family-owned music store and, when you head out crate diving, wear a mask and let me know what you find! Connect with me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. My handle on all three of 'em is RyanArnoldRocks.

The Big Beat is taking next Monday off for Labor Day and will return on September 14.  Have a good, safe looooooong weekend!

Your pal,-Ryan A.
