Labor Day Weekend marks the unofficial end of summer, but that’s when summer starts in San Francisco! And true to nature, we’re in for a record-breaking heat wave. Rosalie will highlight Songs of Summer by Ray Lamontagne, Michael Franti, Judith Owen (Mrs. Harry Shearer), James Taylor, Springsteen, Annie Lennox, and San Francisco sound of the sixties legends It’s A Beautiful Day.
And on the other side of the coin, we reach out to those suffering a different kind of weather assault on the Gulf Coast, with songs about Storms & Hurricanes from Steve Earle, ALO, and Sarah Lee Guthrie, granddaughter of Arlo.
All with a few “working stiff” tunes tossed in for Labor Day by Bruce, Jackson Browne, Dylan, and David Gray.
If you are “Home for the Holiday” celebrate the long weekend with KFOG’s Acoustic Sunrise, only on KFOG!
