LMG’s Soul Eclectics – Summer’s End
In the face of destruction like what was witnessed in the hateful, tragic events in Charlottesville, VA, the most healing, resistant act one can engage in is creation. My #BlackBoyJoy can be found in curating another episode of LMG's Soul Eclectics, your grown folks' music choice to find new material and artists that can still feed the soul. Twenty-one episodes deep, this extended, uninterrupted three-hour music mix is meant for long summer drives and long days in the office. It’s also intended to restore a little joy during these trying times.

In the face of destruction like what was witnessed in the hateful, tragic events in Charlottesville, VA, the most healing, resistant act one can engage in is creation. My #BlackBoyJoy can be found in curating another episode of LMG's Soul Eclectics, your grown folks' music choice to find new material and artists that can still feed the soul. Twenty-one episodes deep, this extended, uninterrupted three-hour music mix is meant for long summer drives and long days in the office. It’s also intended to restore a little joy during these trying times.
So, welcome to another long-awaited, quarterly episode of LMG’s Soul Eclectics for the last of these hazy, lazy days of summer. Here’s a bit of sunshine to accent your “Summer’s End” with a set of R&B, Soul, Jazz, Acid Jazz, hell, the kitchen sink. Enjoy some old faves mixed in with some fresh newcomers to the LMG’s Soul Eclectics show. While keeping the mood bright and swinging for most of the first two hours, I slow it down for those cooling summer evenings on the beach. As with all three-hour LMG's Soul Eclectics Mixes, I purposely mix it up with a range of distinctive voices you’ll hopefully love to avoid the cookie cutter of radio. Be sure to support those artists you like or discover here by buying or streaming their work on more official channels and checking out their shows. You can also support this show by liking us on Facebook, following on Podomatic, subscribing on iTunes, and sharing with fellow music lovers the world over. Enjoy!
