Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by Kevin Cole, host of Drive Time on KEXP, is "Bunny Rainbow Revolution" by Hallelujah Lilly, a 2023 self-released single.
DJ Kevin Cole picks another mystery track for this week's Song of the Day: while I can't seem to discern if Hallelujah Lilly is based in Reykjavik, Iceland or Nashville, Tennessee (or Canada?), Kevin was kind enough to share how he discovered her music:
I was doing a DJ set at Lucky Records in Reykjavik last year on the Sunday of Iceland Airwaves. She came on and performed a solo acoustic set after me, and I was taken aback by her songwriting, grounded uplifting optimism, and spirit. I might not have heard her if it wasn't for this fortunate booking alignment. After her performance I asked if she had music out and she said she was working on an album and would send it to me. This is the first song I've received. There's a haunting, lo-fi sparseness to "Bunny Rainbow Revolution" urging you to "set yourself free."
