About this episode

Mark and Alan discuss new music with Dan Wilson and cover the latest music news.

On this episode of Sound Up!, Mark and Alan welcome Grammy-winning songwriter and Semisonic frontman Dan Wilson to talk about making new music with the band and his remarkable history working with Adele, the Chicks, and so many more. Alan reviews a Suki Waterhouse underplay and St. Vincent with the New York Philharmonic. Music news, of course, is dominated by the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce wedding - what we know (Adam Sandler officiated, Paul McCartney performed) and what we don’t (which Stevie Nicks song would be appropriate for the occasion?) - as well as the announcement of, and trailer for, the upcoming Oasis documentary. Our new music picks this week come from Michigander, Kiss (from 1976), and The Maine.
