Music recommendations for dads who grill & chill

This interview originally aired on "In the Moment" on SDPB Radio.

It's obvious: David Hersrud has fun discussing music, particularly new releases and different genres.

He remembers when there were the big four genres: Country, classical, jazz and rock.

Genres now sprawl into a variety of subgenres, including punk rock, math rock, Simpsonwave, no wave, gothic country, cute metal and yacht rock. Hersrud recently came across a subgenre that's new to him: Dad rock.

This subgenre focuses on classic rock from the 70s and 80s. It's music for dads who grill and chill.

Hersrud has a few new releases that he says fit into the dad rock genre.

Dave Mason and Joe Bonamassa: "Dear Mr. Fantasy" These two are an unlikely combination. One is a Rock & Roll Hall of Famer who's written many classic songs. The other is one of the top blues guitarists in the world.

Hersrud recommends their version of Traffic's "Dear Mr. Fantasy."

Eminem: "Houdini" Hersrud says including a rap song may be a bit of a stretch, but dads tend to be open-minded.

"Houdini" is from Eminem's 12th album "The Death of Slim Shady." It's been largely panned by critics but it debuted at number one in 16 different countries.

His latest release is Hersrud's idea of a rap song for people who don't like rap.

Pixies: "Que Sera Sera" This pick may seem surprising. Hersrud chose a song by one of the originators of the alternative rock music genre who recorded a song sung by Doris Day in the Alfred Hitchcock movie "The Man Who Knew Too Much."

"Que Sera Sera" was done most notably before by Sly and the Family Stone and in a famous Simpsons episode where the citizens of Springfield sing it while waiting for a comet to wipe out the town.

Devon Allman: "White Horse" Devon Allman's publicist describes Allman's new album "Miami Moon" as the past and the future colliding under pink Miami skies.

Hersrud isn't sure what that means, but it sounds nice.

Allman is the son of Gregg Allman. He follows the same blues and rock road that his family has tread before.

He's been making music since the early 90s.

Hermanos Gutiérrez: "Tres Hermanos" The Ecuadorian and Swiss brothers have a new album out. It was produced once again by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys.

It's gotten rave reviews and was described as music for spaghetti Westerns.

Hersrud recommends checking out their NPR Tiny Desk Concert from 2023.

For this dad rock list, Hersrud picked a song from their 2022 album "El Bueno y el Malo."

What channel is the Dolphins game on tonight? Time, TV for preseason game vs Commanders

The Miami Dolphins play their second preseason game tonight against the Washington Commanders . Will Tua Tagovailoa see any time?

The franchise quarterback, weeks removed from signing a contract extension to make him one of the highest-paid players in the NFL, sat out the Dolphins' preseason opener last week against the Atlanta Falcons . So did all of the other Dolphins' stars , from Tyreek Hill and De'Von Achane to Jalen Ramsey and Jevon Holland. Coach Mike McDaniel said the planned starters would appear in tonight's game.

Dolphins fans wouldn't mind a new face at quarterback after seeing the backup battle between Mike White and Skylar Thompson . The two went a combined 12 for 33 for 121 yards. Thompson played the first half and threw a touchdown and an interception. The bright spot on offense was rookie running back Jaylen Wright , who ran for 55 yards and a touchdown.

Chop Robinson , the Dolphins' first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, was held out of last week's game with an injury. Will he finally make his NFL debut? Another Dolphins pass rusher will be eligible: Jaelan Phillips was back at practice after tearing his Achilles on November 24.
