Hello, friends. Early September has already produced a bountiful harvest of new music from lesser-known artists, so Gray Days and Gold—my monthly fake radio show—returns rather hot on the heels of the previous episode with a bushel of new tunes for your autumnal enjoyment.

You can listen to this episode via the embedded player just below in this blog post, or on the Mixcloud website, via the Mixcloud mobile app, on your Sonos system, etc. (If you’re reading via an email digest in which the audio player isn’t embedded, please click the button below.)

There’s also a more barebones iteration of this episode’s playlist (minus my commentary, as well as songs that might be missing from the streaming libraries) on Spotify and Apple Music.

If you like what you hear, please support the artists. You’ll find Bandcamp links to the tracks in the bulleted list below.
