It’s the last week of September, and Wednesday afternoon on The AIR , we bring you a fresh new episode of Beatles Blast filled with…interesting…covers of Beatles tunes. You can tune in at the website, or just stay right here and listen to the convenient embedded radio player lurking elsewhere on this page.
At 2 PM (EDT) Beatles Blast takes an hour to thrill you with another mixtape collection of a variety of artists offering their unique takes on songs written by John, Paul or George. You’re going to get the music of the Fab Four filtered through the lens of EDM, Supermodels, hard rock, Jazz guitar and more, as we push the boundaries just a bit with these covers of Beatles and solo Beatle songs.
