This Day In Music History
It was on this day in 1949 that Bruce Springsteen was born (to run, presumably in the badlands). You don’t need us to tell you about The Boss. We love him, you love him, he’s great.

Tuesday Tip-Off: Full Sun
Full Sun recently followed up last year’s wonderful Thinkin About It by dropping an EP of home recordings that are four tasty slices of fuzzed out punk perfection. Catchy, bratty pop songs with the attitude and distortion turned up to 11 and the kind of hooks that make repeated listens compulsory. The band is donating all sales of the EP to Every Last Vote Fund to help fight voter disenfranchisement in marginalized communities. You can check out the video for the first single below and grab your copy of the EP here.
