KWVA DJ & Show Title: Captain Smirk of The Morning Dew Musical Mystery Tour
Location: Road trip from Eugene, OR to San Diego, CA
Playlist Title: With a Little Help from My Friends
About the playlist: My playlist comes at the strange intersection of dropping out of grad school, stepping into uncertainty, and being fueled to carry on by so many wonderful relationships in my life. It's about not knowing the answers, trusting myself, and receiving the love others want to give and gaining strength through those connections. The playlist started during an incredible weekend in Eugene, gained steam on a 1000 mile road trip down to San Diego, and finishes with the mellow vibes of returning 'home' to spend another holiday with my family.
