Sunday Brunch March 29th, 2020


This week's Sunday Brunch felt like getting caught up on playing some things I've been meaning to play for awhile.  With no concerts to support, I was able to get around to playing a few tracks I haven't gotten to yet. I hope you are staying safe and sane. Be well, stay well.

Sunday Brunch March 22nd, 2020


Like last week , normally the show is all about supporting live music. Now we are faced with no live music pretty much anywhere and many of my friends struggling to figure out how to make up for lost income from performing. 
I ask you this, would you consider buying a CD from one of the independent artists I've supported with airplay on today's show?
I'll even put my money where my mouth is. I'll buy ten CDs for the first ten people who tell me they can't afford the CD.  Reach me at johnmbommarito@gmail.com and I'll make arrangements with you to take care of that. 

Here are links to the stores of friends I am willing to do that for this week:

Sunday Brunch March 8th, 2020


Joe Pug sounds to me like the best parts of Bob Dylan and John Prine's songwriting abilities with a much better voice. I hope you enjoyed hearing him in studio today.  Some great lyrics today too. As a listener responded to "Misguided Angel, love you til I'm dead." I couldn't help but notice some other great lines throughout the program.  What was your favorite?
