With Cracker, listen to their live performance from Aug. 22 now.
What’s with all the rain in Seattle today? It’s POURING out there! Cats and dogs I tell you. I think I have to finally admit that summer is gone. It’s time to put my feet back in jail (Oh sandals and flip flops, how I [...]
I had the craziest morning yesterday….I was having trouble falling asleep Monday night. I went to bed around 1 or 2am and I’m tossing and turning in bed and just about to fall asleep at 3am when all this commotion starts right in front of my house. About five huge fire trucks come blaring up, [...]

I’m going on vacation the first half of next week. John’s taking me to his lake cabin in Idaho. You’d think he’d get enough of me here in Seattle. So, last night I saw the rockin’-est show in the UNIVERSE. Thee Emergency [...]
Cheryl with Mike Johnson and the Evildoers, KEXP - 5/25/06

It’s our first day at Gigantic Studios in NYC. Everything is new and different so we’re just getting our sea legs. But, what an amazing studio and what a fun part of town (Tribeca). We’re so excited to be here. John just started his show and didn’t realize he had the microphone on during the [...]

Gary Louris of The Jayhawks warming up at KEXP
Totally blown away… The Jayhawks are one of my favorite bands of fall time. To hear (and see) Mark Olsen and Gary Louris singing together after all these years was a real treat [...]
