The Twisted Groove is a weekly radio show on KSFR fm 101.1 Santa Fe airing Saturday eves 10pm to midnight (MT). Spinifex plays a groove-based exploration of the past, present and future of Electronic, Indie, Rare Groove, Funk, Soul, Experimental, and Afro Funk propelling your music pleasures into futurity!

Tonight’s Twisted Groove is inspired by the recent performance by The Watson Twins and Sierra Ferrell. I planned a mostly female-driven show for your listening pleasure. You’ll hear, of course, The Watson Twins and Sierra Ferrell but also Lola Kirke, Feist, Jenny Lewis, New Pornographers, Courtney Barnett, Warpaint, The Beths, Wet Leg, Cowboy Junkies, Big Thief and more.

He refused to take royalties on albums he worked on (a rare stance in the music industry).
