In the last couple of years we’ve started setting roots, finding life partners, building families, growing gardens. We got dogs, (you can hear them in the background if you listen close). We wrote songs about life and relationships. We recorded them in our home studios. Danny produced and mixed it. We saw the beginnings and endings of life cycles while making this record, the beauty and fragility of the human experience. So it’s only fitting that this album is self-titled, it’s our story, who we are now and how we got here. Welcome to our living room.”\n===\nhttps://ilovelucius.bandcamp.com/album/stranger-danger https://www.ilovelucius.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3521079, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3521079/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-07-01T05:35:52-07:00", "show": 63889, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/63889/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "The Orb, Tx", "track_id": "e433e9c5-10e1-402f-b2c8-f8aa225d96f1", "recording_id": "070d99f4-07db-4721-b4d9-0332f5d89d97", "artist": "Kerala Dust", "artist_ids": [ "6a8f332b-a26d-48c3-afd9-b167abfb4562" ], "album": "An Echo of Love", "release_id": "12625ee1-3717-4429-897e-ffc99c11a84c", "release_group_id": "fa37972d-133c-4c5d-bcdb-6959446aa595", "labels": [ "Play It Again Sam" ], "label_ids": [ "3ccd1270-99d3-4b83-a311-6c60e127c866" ], "release_date": "2025-08-22", "rotation_status": "Medium", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "UPCOMING SHOWS\n+ Nov 15 @ Madame Lou's (SEA)\n+ Nov 20 @ Bimbo's 365 Club (SF)\n==\nCheck out the music video for Kerala Dust's \"The Orb, TX\": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNVLxmzr_ys\n==\nhttps://keraladust.bandcamp.com/album/an-echo-of-love", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3521078, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3521078/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-07-01T05:32:38-07:00", "show": 63889, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/63889/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" } ] }{ "next": "
