20. Waxing Weekly: 27/05/2025

Bill Frisell eases us into quite a relaxed vibe for the start of this week’s edition of Waxing Weekly, with Cadillac 1959 from our Album of the Week – Good Dog, Happy Man. The jazzy, folk feel is the centrepiece for the rest of this week’s playlists, with more tunes from Frisell, and from the likes of Fred Hersch, Bob Dylan, Ted Greene and Seasick Steve. To mix things up, we have a final third more influenced by electronica, including music from Jamie xx’s In Colour, which turns ten years old this week. New music this week comes from Fred Hersch, Dirty Nice, Loaded Honey and Barry Can’t Swim. Save, share and listen on Spotify.
