Cranberries

Listen to "Noel and Delorious From The Cranberries Something Else" on Spreaker. The Cranberries are set to release Something Else, a new album featuring re-worked renditions of their major hits, as well as brand new material. The album is due out April 28 via BMG on digital and CD formats, and includes seminal Cranberries songs like "Linger," "Zombie," "Dreams," and "Ode To My Family"... re-recorded in orchestral and acoustic arrangements. The album is now available for pre-order. Something Else celebrates the 25th anniversary of the band. Their first major U.S. hit "Linger" has been re-done acoustically, and just premiered on Rolling Stone! On the album concept and choice of "Linger" as the first single, The Cranberries' singer-songwriter Dolores O’Riordan explains, "'Linger' was the first song The Cranberries ever wrote together. I was 17, and the youngest member of the band was 15 at the time. We never imagined it'd be such a big hit, but soon us teenagers found ourselves on our first flight to the United States to shoot the video in Downtown LA. That video would introduce us to American households, in the good old days of MTV! The bittersweet love song still holds all that sentimentality for us personally, which is why we had to include it on this project. Universally, I think its message remains timeless and relevant, never going out of fashion, yet never quite in fashion. It's amazing to have a song hold up 25 years later, and I hope this acoustic version allows our fans to hear a Cranberries classic in a new way." "Linger " is available now for download and streaming. The full album is available for pre-order on digital and CD formats.

Jessamyn Stanley

Listen to "Jessamyn Stanley Every Body Yoga" on Spreaker. “I wrote this book for every fat person, every old person, and every exceptionally short person. I wrote it for every person who has called themselves ugly and every person who can’t accept their beauty. I wrote it for every person who is self-conscious about their body,” Jessamyn Stanley writes. Jessamyn Stanley is a yogi who breaks all the stereotypes. The self-professed “fat femme’s” trademark confrontational approach to tackling big topics—fat-shaming, body image and the media, the tyranny of unattainable beauty standards—has garnered her a fanatic following, national media attention, and acclaim as an internationally celebrated yoga instructor whose fans flock to her sold-out classes. In her debut book EVERY BODY YOGA: Let Go of Fear, Get on the Mat, Love Your Body (Workman), Stanley offers an unprecedented new guide to yoga for anyone whose aspirations have been tempered by insecurity. The result is an accessible, uplifting, and often hilarious approach for everybody, and every body. Presenting a refreshing paradigm shift in the approach to Modern yoga, Stanley’s democratic method is centered on the truth that yoga isn’t about how one looks, but how one feels. To that end, her own deeply personal memoir is woven throughout the easy-to-follow instructions to 50 basic yoga poses and 10 sequences to practice at home, all photographed in full color.

Earned Journey

Listen to "Earned Journey" on Spreaker. Paging through my daily writing. A jotting down of words connected to my present place of standing. Just over a year ago I chose to write about what people don't share about the journey toward getting old. It went side by side with an experience I had this past week at a retirement home. I asked about the residents watching ME TV which features a ton of old television programming. I was reminded that adults in their older years are trapped inside bodies that are breaking down and apart. But their imaginations and love for entertainment are with us every step of the present moment. My subject a year ago was to talk about what people don't share about getting older. As a writer in 2016 it deeply bothered me. Today I have a better answer.

Jaguar Skills

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Jaguar Skills At The Record Exchange" on Spreaker. Amazing things always grew from the stages at the record exchanges. Those were the moments and places where we could taken in the albums and CD's collecting dust and turn them in for newer music or walk away with a little change in our pockets. From those days the modern day festival DJ's grew. It was an endless supply of beats. Jaguar Skills is one of them. His latest release on rBeatz Radio is Fly.
