Welcome to midweek in The Mermaid Lounge. Today we kick it off with our ‘M is For Motown’ EP, followed by Tom Waits, and the love songs of Bob Dylan.

Here’s your midweek lineup:

4:00 p.m. Singer-Songwriter Series: The Music of Tom Waits

Tom Waits and his trademark gravelly voice are back for his second spin as our featured singer-songwriter for the week.

8:00 p.m. Bob Dylan: The Love Songs

We all know Mr. Dylan, our very first featured singer-songwriter, is undoubtedly the most accomplished musician and performer of his generation, even winning the Nobel Prize for Literature. In fact, his talents redefined the boundaries of literature. However, he didn’t just write social consciousness lyrics. Dylan just happened to write some of the most incredible love songs on the planet. See for yourself.

I could say this would be a great day to join us, but every day is a great day to join us. That’s because we are on 24/7 at no charge to you, we run no commercial advertising, and our D.J. is practically mute. That is every single day.
