With 2014 at a close, we thought we'd take a moment (or an hour of moments) to talk about some of the awesome music that has come out this year. Dan gathers some discerning music fans to discuss their favorite releases of 2014. Featuring James Hearne, Jay Verdibello and Bill Rose.

Dan talks with Jon about songwriting, performance anxiety, being a sometime children's musician, and growing up in a house the youngest of four very talented brothers. Jon also holds the title of "First Musician To Play On 25 O'Clock"! And it is awesome.

DC area guitarist and podcaster Tony Porreco sits down at the kitchen table to talk about DIT (Do It Together), his Hometown Sounds podcast, and being a true DC music supporter and cheerleader. Also, Dan reveals his Seasonal Grumpiness Disorder and how he's trying to deal with it.
