Song Club Radio Hour: Recent Episodes
Song Club Radio Hour
Participants are given a randomly selected song title with a combination of three prompts and parameters. Songs are written within a one-week time frame and submitted on Friday afternoon. Each week a different clubber is selected to deliver the introduction to the show. This material is collected and compiled in a random order and live-streamed at 7pm on Friday nights. These are those programs.
