This radio station means so much to me. I have never been one to be attached to physical things... so I’m not feeling sad but only excited to say goodbye to this little house that has been the home of @mvyradio for 35 years. A new chapter is ahead, a capital campaign is about to begin, and “the little station that could” will have a new home, with space to GROW. If you didn’t hear the news, click the link in my profile.Home is where the 😴 isI’m so beyond grateful for the generous photographers in our community who come and lend their amazing eyes to our dress rehearsals and performances 😍 Thank you to Patty McEvoy for capturing these shots and with them, the magic of CHICAGO✨🎩💥💋🔥✨The two productions I was a part of have both wrapped and it’s a very strange mix of emotions for me. For the past 3 months I’ve had rehearsals up to 5 days a week. Not only is rehearsal a great place to escape reality but it’s also very social. The two groups of people I got to spend time with and create with were really top notch, and it’s rough to know that I won’t see many of them for the foreseeable future 💔 Now it’s back to reality and the piles of laundry I’ve neglected 😩 Things I won’t miss: the drive to and from rehearsal, the aches and pains from all the dancing, and wearing a full face of makeup 🤪 #musicaltheatre #musicaltheater #musicaltheatrelife #communitytheatre #communitytheaterI have been so good with avoiding sweets for the last month or so, but this here devil cookie got me today... well, 3 of em did! 💕🤪 thanks @misslonalisaHeading to #MV real quickThe past few weeks have included more hours of dancing than I ever imagined I could execute, and I’m so proud of myself for rising to the challenge. Come see our hard work pay off as we hit the stage, April 6th, 7th, 13th and 14th 🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 ticket link in my profile 🔗 #chicagothemusical #cellblocktango #hehaditcoming

pH balanced · music recommendations from Jess Phaneuf, Music Director at MVYRADIO
Hey Jess!
Love the blog! Such great suggestions–just what I needed to upgrade my itunes. I’m really impressed and will definitely be checking in regularly. Hope you are staying happy on your island :)
-Jen
hey jess,
luke temple’s stuff is really interesting, haunting…i like it; and tuung’s bullets is one of my favorite weird songs of all time…great blog!
Just passing by, and wanted to say I enjoyed your blog. Any suggestions for my Pandora when Im writing?
Thanks

Thanks, Jonas! Glad you like it. I love my Wilco station on Pandora!
Jonas, recently I’ve discovered that I can’t go wrong with my station for The Shins on Pandora! Check it out :)
I ran across your blog and was very impressed by the choices. I enjoyed basically everything you listed, or, perhaps even more importantly, if I didn’t enjoy a particular song, I could still appreciate it. I have bookmarked it and will be telling my wife, who is also an avid music fan, about it. BTW, we are from Atlanta, so consider the word spread!
Bailey,
SO GREAT to hear that you enjoy the blog…and all the way in Atlanta! Thanks so much for letting me know, and I hope your wife likes it too :)
Looking for lyrics and to Joe Pug Song, Disguised as someone else. Can’t seem to find on your site.
Thanks
I don’t have the lyrics to the tune, Rick… and I can’t find them anywhere online either. Sorry!
Jess – Good choice. I also enjoy the catchy “Under the Influence” by James Morrison. It is an uplifting tune that makes me smile every time I hear it played on MVY.
I knew you liked that one! I remember playing it for you once :)
I found your blog through Ryans, and Im so grateful that I did. Thanks for turning me on to so much great music!!!:)
Awesome, Beth! I’m so glad you like the music :) Thanks for reading!
Hey Jess,
Just stumbled upon your blog. I dig the music. I feel like you would dig The Evergreens. Have you heard of them? Anyways, keep up the great work!

Thanks, Mike! So glad you dig it :)
I will definitely check out The Evergreens… haven’t heard of them!

The things I’ve seen today, Madeleine Peyroux
Hi Jess,
I read the lyrics you wrote down and I like them, as you do.
It seems impossible to find them all on the web…
By chance, would you have transcribed the whole song or do you intend to do so one day or another?
(I’m French and don’t recognize some words just by hearing…)
Thanks in advance.
All the best,
Régis
PS : love tour blog… go on like that!
Great to see you guys on the boat. However, starting all your blog entries with my name is just a little too much. I’m blushing….
Haha, I can’t help it, I just missed you so much!
LOVE your blog, Jess! It was so nice to meet you at Naukabout as well : )
Great meeting you too! Thanks for checking out the blog :))

Glad I stumbled on your pHjess flyer at Mocha Mott’s…it’s tough not being closer to my wife’s family’s place on MV so once we leave to head home again this weekend I’ll be tuning in quite a bit. Looking forward to some new music and maybe I can turn you on to some new music from Europe. Enjoy the spring and summer on the island. We’re here until Saturday so if there’s any live shows by bands or musicians you dig let me know. Cheers !
Thanks so much for checking out the blog and dropping a note! There’s a great community potluck event Saturday evening in Chilmark with LOTS of music and it’s FREE. Hope you’ll still be around for that!
Ah, didn’t know about this potluck but we had to leave Saturday morning. My wife’s brother will be living in the place off-season between the following Sept and May. We did stop by the Orange Peel Bakery in Aquinnah last week and heard about their Saturday night pizza thing and their return of pizza nights on Wednesdays starting in June. It was tough to leave on Saturday. We don’t get nearly enough time in the house. And we just missed the Chappy Community Center’s potluck the day we got there two weeks ago. Though as many times as I have stopped at the CCC there has been no one working. However, I did get to shoot some hoops at their court which is pretty snazzy as hoops go. How many years again have you been on the island working for the station?
I’ve been here for about 5 years now! Moved to the island to take the position at mvy :))
Hope you can return soon!
JP
I just saw you left mvy. What station did you go to? Mornings won’t be the same. Good luck wherever you go
Thanks for all the tunes
Hi Frank! Thank you! I’ll be starting at WUMB on 11/9 …weekday evenings 7-10pm
