Kristen Eck's July 11th, 2025 BumbleBee Brunch indie playlist.

Welcome Connors Farm!

Connors Farm in Danvers supports BumbleBee Radio

I am ecstatic to welcome Connors Farm on Rte 35 in Danvers, Massachusetts as the newest sponsor of BumbleBee Brunch! As each Summer approaches, I am on the edge of my seat waiting for them to open in June. They have a fantastic selection of fresh produce grown right there, pick-your-own peaches, pick-your-own apples, and a wonderland of fun for the kids (including a working train) out back. Over the coming weeks I will be sharing photos and videos showing you all the very cool things happening there. It's all here down on the farm, Connors Farm!

Here's the show playlist: HOUR ONE:

*** The Bee's Knees is a NEW weekly feature. Every Friday we'll spin the current #1 song in the BumbleBee Radio Top-10 on Radio Indie Alliance. This week's Bee's Knees entry is "Hey Sah-Lo-Ney" by The Chelsea Curve. It was originally the Bee's Knees for the week of June 30th, but since we took a break for July 4th weekend, it remained the Bee's Knees for the week of July 7th, making-it the very first song ever to repeat here on The Bee!

"Hey Sah-Lo-Ney" is a strong contender for Song-of-the-Summer here on BumbleBee Radio. You can snag a copy (along with a new remix of "Jamie C'mon" on 7-inch vinyl (black or Coke-bottle clear) on the Rum Bar Records Bandcamp page. BOTH songs on the vinyl single are also available as bonus-tracks on the album "All The Things (And More,") also available via Rum Bar Records. The CD comes with a groovy mini-poster!
