We get 2024’s first visit with a member of the OG Quinn Spinn family this week, as JD joins the show. We chat about the forthcoming NFL conference championship matchups (Chiefs vs. Ravens, Lions vs. 49ers) and give our predictions.
We also chat about our intentions for the New Year, including the things we’re bringing into 2024, and those we’re leaving behind us in 2023.
We have all of that, plus Feelin’ Good, Something for Your Ears, and a Stupid News in honor(?) of a flu-ridden Scotty Rock.
We may currently be deep in the throes of winter, but today, we have a song that reminds us of summer’s golden glow.
That song is “Tom Cruisin’,” the debut single from ROM COM. The Nashville-based indie rock outfit — comprised of Aron Rosing, Tyler Murray, and Suzie Buist — proclaim that they are here “to write a soundtrack to your love life,” and with this sun-kissed introduction, we think they might be onto something.
Inspired by the iconic 80s movie, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, “Tom Cruisin'” finds our protagonists soaking in the last fleeting moments of summer love before parting ways. Rosing explains:
“You sneak into the private swim club where you lifeguarded after it’s closed down for the season to throw one last end of summer pool party, and you invite your crush, so you can tell them how you really feel before you both move off to start your post-grad jobs,” Rosing said. “The band you hired shows up in their 1994 Jaguar convertible, and proceeds to perform the soundtrack to the best kiss of your life, as the sun sets over the suburban hills of your hometown.”
On our end, we can’t wait to hear more from this exciting new project, and we won’t have to wait long. ROM COM’s next single, “Mess You Made,” will arrive on Friday, January 12.
While you wait, this will certainly hold you over. Check out “Tom Cruisin'” below!
