SOMNIA is a show dedicated to all things pop culture, conversational topics and alternative music. We pride ourselves on giving artists from musicians, storytellers and everything in between a platform to express themselves creatively as well as a show for us to be expressive of ourselves too – while obviously telling some funny jokes in between. Our highly opinionated, understanding and out-there personalities will provide you with a mix of every show host you love with a twist. An alternative twist. With nothing but alternative bangers, good conversation and some top notch jokes to match, SOMNIA is something that will not only keep you grooving but also keep you intrigued and wanting to hear more. Your hosts Sarah and Keah promise to keep you updated on all your pop culture needs, new conspiracy stories and a tidbit or two about ourselves that you may never understand but somehow will always relate too.
Today we let our listeners take the wheel, requesting a song here there and everywhere, today our song list is dedicated to you. We discuss your phobias and why they are now our phobias (thanks for that) As we also got the chance to sit down with Brandon Seller, ex Drummer and new Lead vocalist of ATREYU and discuss their new album Baptize which can out on all streaming platforms on the 4th June and what we can hopefully expect to see from these guys in the future.

We are finally over that end of year hump - the food, the alcohol but most importantly the retail works who decided they don't need to know the meaning of personal space anymore and what a wonderful time it is. Today we discuss a marriage ending, a not-so-happening-marriage never taking place and just how easy Keah's ability to remind us we are getting old as hell really packs a punch.
