In August 2022, Shannon Shaw’s world was turned inside out. With mere weeks to go until their wedding, the singer’s fiancé, Joe Haener, died in a horrific car accident in front of his family’s vegetable farm in Oregon. It was a devastating loss that hit Shannon & The Clams with cataclysmic force. Shaw’s bandmates, guitarist Cody Blanchard, keyboard player Will Sprott, and drummer Nate Mahan, had also grown close to Haener, a drummer and fixture of the Bay Area music scene. They cancelled shows and rallied around Shaw as fans reached out to show their support.

The PBS Feature Sounds and Feature Album of the week will return soon, but in the meantime, check out the list of the top tracks the PBS team are loving this week. We hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

TOP TRACKS WE'RE LOVING

Goat + MC Yallah - 'Nimerudi'

It’s not unreasonable to argue, as a great philosopher once has, that we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. We take this adage fairly seriously here at PBS. We don’t waste time, and we take every opportunity to move to the beat and to look for hope in the most surprising and unlikely places.
