On today’s WMNF Sustainable Living Program we talked about a project in St. Petersburg based on sustainability, community, education and helping others in need. Heading up The Illumi-Nation Project is a former resident and operations manager of the Blue Berry Patch Community & The Gulfport Labyrinth. Hal Baily is a designer, builder, artist and dreamer. Also joining the show, Hal’s partner, Liza Epstein, is a graduate from Eckerd College that teaches and helps children with special needs. These are some of the projects and events these two are involved with:  Monthly “Community Art Project” at the Blueberry Patch; planning for a sustainability education community center in St Pete, Rising Light; and their community outreach program. http://www.RisingLightsStPete.org

Next up on our Tropical Heatwave Artist Spotlight: Divine AF “These are truly poets of the soul, and masters of the groove. “This Side of Desire” is the funky, rocky, soulful, bluesy album that I’d say a lot of people have been wanting for a long time. It really fills a void in what is today’s music. The variety of genres, rhythms, arrangements, tempos, and vocal stylings keep the listener rapt with attention and tells you that you are entering very special, privileged territory. In addition, the lyrics are great, and so it becomes a sort of a battle to choose between focusing on the words, the music, or the downright stunning vocal performances.”– tunedloud.com CLICK EVENTS IN LINKTREE FOR TICKETS! 🚨 Special Show Alert! 🚨 Tune in this Friday at 10am for a Special interview with Andrew Warren!

The amount of soul in this vocal is absolutely phenomenal. The overall production feels like it could have been recorded in Stax in the last 60s. The vibe feels legit and is something we are proud to support. This one came along at just the right time… not too soon or too late. If you miss the “good old days” when people made “real music” then you need to spin this track” (Too Soon, Too Late)” – Ear To The Ground #thw24 #Livemusic #wmnfevents CLICK EVENTS IN LINKTREE FOR TICKETS!
