Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth

As a kid in High School I fell in love with the band Sonic Youth. Much thanks in large part to my buddy Dan Chin who would make mix tapes to play in my car. We listened to Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr, Pavement, Super Chunk, Archers of Loaf and even some Digable Planets. Fast forward a million years later and Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth is hanging out with me in the Lightning 100 studio. It's the only time I've ever been allowed to play Sonic Youth on the radio and I loved every minute of it!

Late last year I had some great in studio guests for an even better cause. Nashville resident Trent Dabbs and Nashville cast member Sam Palladio, along with musician Colin Linden, came into the Lightning 100 studio. They chatted about writing together, ABC’s Nashville, and helped raise awareness for the victims of the Typhoon Haiyan. Haiyan was an exceptionally powerful tropical cyclone that devastated portions of Southeast Asia, particularly the Phillipines, in early November 2013. It is the deadliest Phillipine Typhoon on record,killing over 6,000 people in that country alone.
