Memphis Beat - The Fall Pledge Show

Tune in today for the Memphis Beat (1-2pm) as I play some of your favorite local artists' local favorites. Confused? Here's the deal. I asked several musicians around town to give me a list of Memphis tunes (past or present) that they have been listening to lately. And for today I'll create the playlist with those responses. Sound fun? You betcha!
