Songwire: Year One

October 30th, 2025

Just a year ago, we kicked off an idea for a little playlist side project to share the music we love and hopefully help people discover or remember or just sing along to songs they love, too. It's been a blast, and we thank you for listening along with us.

As we head into year #2, the idea is very much the same, but we're making some minor changes: we had been blasting out playlists near weekly for some months, and realized that was a bit much for us (and maybe for you, too). So we're going to start focusing on monthly themed playlists on the regular, plus some bonus playlists here and there and some additional friends in the mix for guest spots too. So yeah, nothing massive, and still more music to come. Follow along on Instagram and/or Spotify to stay in the loop!

Scott's Sad Songs: It Feels Good to Cry

guest sad

our friend Scott made a sad mix for us this week and we’re so excited to share it with you!! take a listen (grab your tissues) and read about his inspiration: "This is a list of songs that, at one point or another since I was 12, have made me cry. Growing up in the suburbs of Portland, Oregon in the 1990s, crying was rarely seen as something okay.The culture was steeped in rigid masculinity. I was lucky to find a small group of friends in my early teens (suburban punks, emo kids, Jack-Mormons, and theatre kids) who pushed back against that narrative. Together, we created space for each other, and music played a huge part in that. It gave me a way to connect on an emotional level in a culture that encouraged emotional detachment." Scott Michaud plays bass in the Dark Folk Punk band, the Bridge City Sinners & runs Flail Records.
