COOKIN' STU - Episode 20
It’s been 20 episodes already… what a journey. For our Season 1 finale, we get one last peek at Cordelia and Jack’s lovey-dovey relationship and some elite banana-shaker action (thank you, Karolina). Three completely different vibes today, including one track that might be legally questionable with how much it sounds like a DJO song. Guess I gotta drafting the emails to my lawyers.

Featured Artists
Jackson Perry
Producer
Jackson Perry is a producer, singer-songwriter, and mixing engineer from southern New Jersey. When producing for artists, he works with folk and alternative songwriters, helping them build out their songs in his home studio in Boston. For his own music, he creates a mix of electronic and folk music that is sometimes soft, and sometimes makes you want to move, inspired by artists like Adrianne Lenker, Bon Iver, and The Japanese House. In either case, he thinks of songs as emotional windows into places and times, and seeks to capture those places vividly in his music.
