You may remember our dear friend and DC local musician Long Walks on the Beach, who has played our stage and who has played on our station many many times and who has no doubt played on repeat in your head, in your heart, in the deep recesses of your mind as you’re falling asleep, all thumping bass drums and jingle-jangling guitars, filling the empty dark room, building slowly from a beat, with smooth, even-keeled vocals: slow jam on a Saturday night.

This Saturday, we’re all going to be taught a little lesson on which coast is really the best. Our east coast doldrums due to the melancholy weather of November are about to be thrown for a loop when Best Coast brings us a little of those California chill vibes. Based out of LA, the trio will transform Bulldog Alley with their lo-fi surf sounds.

Non GU Students buy tickets HERE. Georgetown Students can grab tickets for $5 in Red Square all week.

Playlist: WGTB’s Preemptive Strike Against S.A.D.

In our last couple weekend playlists, we brought you soundtracks to accompany the delights of early fall: hot cider, cool weather, scarves and sweaters. But fall isn’t all crisp air and colored leaves. No, with November comes the final pre-Thanksgiving Break crunch, chilly weather and the gradual loss of precious daylight. Sometimes, you just get SAD. No, I’m not yelling “sad” at you from across the internet–we’re talking Seasonal Affective Disorder. So we here at WGTB are launching a preemptive strike against the winter blues, bringing back a bit of summer sunshine to warm you up as the temperature dips down. When you feel the chills coming on, press play and feel the heat of summer slowly seeping back in with every breezy, beachy harmony and lo-fi, surfy guitar riff. Read More »
