So much great music gets lost in the cracks. Join us at Earshifter where we feature artists (old and new) often overlooked by the masses and radio. We’ll talk about what makes the band great and different, their background and their bestest-est songs.
Earshifter is ultimately about two things: music discovery OR if you love the feature artist in an episode, going deep on that band you love.
