London Morning’s associate producer Ryan Soulliere listens to a lot of music each week. One of his roles on the program is picking the tunes that get played on the show. In any given week that’s about 25 songs. From this week’s show, here are his three top picks.
Adam Karch – Night Moves
WATCH | Night Moves:
Earlier in the week London Morning played a Bob Seger song to mark the anniversary of his first studio album Night Moves. The song played was a cover by Montreal’s Adam Karch, a warm and stripped down version of the popular song. Karch’s take on Night Moves is a mellow finger-picking guitar style jam perfect for starting your weekend mornings.
Broomsticks & Hammers – Playin’ by Their Rules
On Wednesday London Morning spoke to Sugar Shack owner, producer and engineer Simon Larochette about recording bands from the London music scene for 15 years. Broomsticks & Hammers is just one of dozens of bands that released their music thanks to Sugar Shack. Playin’ by Their Rules by Broomsticks & Hammers is a fun, jangly-sounding song with a catchy chorus. Try this one when it’s time to shift gears from waking up to getting into the day.
K-OS – Guns&Roses
WATCH | Guns&Roses:
Hip-hop rapper K-OS is releasing a new album next week called BLackneck. London Morning played one of the brand new singles, Guns&Roses, from the album. This song sounds like a return to form for K-OS, bringing some verses over a clave beat. Guns&Roses is a get-up-and-go song, ideal for helping you find the energy to tackle any weekend chores — or as an upbeat track on your next party mix.
