    You can be a part of the show by recording a liner for the show! We've been soliciting liners from the bands we play and the fans who listen. We play a 10-15 second liner between each song on the playlist during the show. If you are so inclined, we'd love to have one from you. All we ask is that you use the following as a guideline:

  • The Basement Tapes with NIck & Bootsy #607
    Dec 26 2023
    We hope Santa was good to you in 2023 and you were able to spend time with family and friends during the holiday season! Bootsy decided to look to somebody else to choose the playlist for Show #607. She turned to The Columbia Tribune's Aarik Danielson, features & culture editor. He chose the 10 records that helped define Missouri music in 2023. Bootsy listened to everything he selected then chose the ones that she liked best! You'l hear tunes from albums released in 2023 by:

    The Onions - Beth Bombara - The Whiffs - Rochara Knight & the Honey Doves - Lizzie Weber - Paige Fairbairn & the Feverfew - and Nick Thomas

    Nick closed out 2023 by choosing a tune by one of his alltime favorite bands - Starcastle - for Nick's Pic. He discovered Something Completely Different by Matthew Mancuso while surfing YouTube!
