poem: remember god?

wrote and recorded this one outside in june, while feeling particularly nostalgic for summer camp. the camp i went to was a complicated place because they sort of rammed a religious agenda down our throats, in between the mouthfuls of s’mores and chocolate chip pancakes. but they couldn’t get the liberal out of me, even as a young lass, and i thank “god” for that.

daddy daughter songs

On the eve of my dad’s much anticipated (and lovingly planned) Celebration of Life, I decided to have a little radio show with him. Here’s a song I wrote about my dad, Dave Graham, followed by a song he wrote about me. Peace and love, baby.

Lise.FM - Melvin Knight

Melvin Knight joins me at the Illinois College of Media's audio suite to tell me about the influences behind his soulful sound. From his mother, an accomplished opera singer, to Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, Melvin brings me on a journey through his amazingly rich musical past. Then, we put it all together and hear his new single with his fabulous band The Amber Sky, "Ice Cream," and he tells me about his upcoming album, Shades oF Us.

Lise.FM - The Hitmen of Chicago (your new favorite cover band)

They play Weezer. They play Elton John. They play Stacy's Mom. They're The Hitmen of Chicago, also known as your new favorite night out! The band is composed of: composer and pianoman Ben Montalbano from indie folk band Matthaus (my first ever guest on Lise.FM), singer/songwriter Dan Durley (my second ever guest on Lise.FM), Erik Opland from Fay Ray (FKA Church Booty), Danny Masterson (voice of an angel, guitar playing skills of the devil) and Justin Peters (a singing drummer who loves Bowie, need I say more?. They tell me about how it feels to start a super group in their 20s, how they managed to compile a set list containing both "Tiny Dancer" AND "Stacy's Mom," and where they see this group going (like your sister's wedding, if she's still looking for a band!)

Lise.FM - Forest Home

Episode 43 - Homegrown Chicago band Forest Home joins me in studio to talk about the makings of their unique indie math-rock sound. Members Kevin, Andy, Alayne & Eric take turns talking about the influences they bring to the table - from Weezer & Radiohead to Sleater Kinney, Forth Wanderers and This Town Needs Guns - and how they work together to synthesize all of these into one cohesive and unique, “Forest Homey” sound. At the end of our chat, they debut “Above Me,” a track off their forthcoming album, Wastement.
