As we round our the Summer months—special thanks to all of the fine festivals and concerts we experienced in the warm, Edmonton sun—I've got another stacked visit to The Purple Room.

​There's a heavy emphasis on the drummer and the emcee, respectively, this week. Check out the tracks by Breakestra, Earl Palmer, Makaya McCraven, and Boog Brown to hear what I mean.

Check out the playlist below and thanks again for listening.
