Hello!
Several favorite San Diego songwriters made the Top 20 list this month. Sara Petite’s work (at no. 1 this month) is charming and rootsy ~ I’m so glad you all are enjoying her. If you still haven’t “discovered” San Diego’s troubadour-in-residence Gregory Page, that album (no. 13) is a wonderful place to start. And Jakob Martin’s “Providence” (no. 15) ~ what a sweet song! San Diego artists make up less than 10% of the Acoustic Pie rotation so it’s a testament to the talent this town lays claim to that so many make the Top 20 each month.
Thanks for voting for your favorite songs! And, as always, thanks for listening!

Thank you for the spin on “Coyote.” The track after it, from “Once,” is the first iTunes purchase I ever made.

And thank you for the great music, Jonathan! I love that album, The Law and the Lonesome. Ok, so I love all of your albums, lol.
