This week we’ve got a stellar lineup of new music from some of the best in the scene — including The Whiffs, The Needmores, Eytan Mirsky, The Modbeats, The Jack Rubies, The Peppermint Kicks, John Howard, Chicago’s own Push Puppets, and Kevin Robertson. We’re also spinning another track from The Spindles’ 2025 release Wavelength — a record already shaping up to be a PPO Top Ten. Plus, we’re digging deep into the PPO Archives for some unheard or at least underheard gems from The Mod Frames, The Explosives, The Hi-Fi’s, Power Mowers, The Ascenders, Boston legends The Rings, and a pair of real rarities from The Dominoes and The Maps. Give us sixty minutes, and we’ll give you an hour of the best power pop anywhere — past, present, and always in tune
