Whither Indiepop A To Z # 54?

(Marine Girls, one of the bands you'll hear on tonight's show, image from here.)

Yes, we're fifty-four episodes in.  It's a little crazy.  We began the letter M last time, four months ago, & if all goes well tonight, we'll explore bands & artists whose names fit somewhere between Malory & Marzipan.  Yes, there are a lot of bands who will appear in the letter M.  I may not finish it this decade.

But what a bunch of good music!  & from all over: the states, Great Britain, Australia, Sweden, Canada, Spain, Hong Kong, France, Germany.  & pretty equally divided gender-wise - there are four bands whose name includes the word "Marine" & all of them are female-fronted.  Marine Girls, pictured above, were all women.  Indiepop is international & it's not at all sexist.  I celebrate that!

Come listen, tonight from 9-11pm eastern (8-10pm central) on 93.9 fm WLXU in Lexington & online everywhere at Lexington Community Radio dot org.  It should be fun.  At least the music.  I make no promises about my place in this.
