The Spiral Times

A spiral is a spring and April 1st means one thing: foolishness! Here’s an hour of mischief music and smile sounds from Egypt to Zanzibar, Japan to Sweden, unified by vibe not tribe, with some guest selections courtesy of spiral soulmate and York’s most beguiling tortoise mother Lauren. The Fool represents freedom from expectations, beginner's luck, improvisation, an unshakeable belief in the joyful unknown. Plant your seeds and lettuce cruise from the sublime to the ridiculous.
