A Direction Home :: 7:00am 9th Dec 2023
ALL TOMORROW’S MORNINGS is my theme today, airing at oh-my-god-it’s-early o’clock, to ease you into your Saturday. As Cowboy Junkies say, “everybody knows, good news always sleeps ’til noon”. So take a slow morning listening to Bumpy (Squid Nebula’s lead singer), Gena Rose Bruce, Nina Simone, Joe Henry, Cash Savage and more. There’ll be a lovely version of Velvet Underground’s “Sunday Morning” sung by Michael and Lynda Stipe, and a new 8-piece collective out of London – caroline have a few surprises up their sleeve. William Crighton sings a morning song for you, to make you feel better than you do… “Don’t look at the morning news, let me share the weight with you…” and that we will, friends. Welcome to another of all tomorrow’s mornings on A Direction Home.
