Catskills band Florist has released a self-titled album, the fourth full-length album from the quartet in a decade. The 19 tracks, recorded in the summer of 2019 in a rented house the band shared in the Hudson Valley, are a diverse mix of songs, instrumentals, and natural sounds of rain and birdsong that just earned the band a spot as one of Pitchfork's best new albums. Led by singer and songwriter Emily Sprague, Florist is back to its original lineup on this album, consisting of Jonnie Baker, Rick Spataro, and Felix Walworth. The band recently gathered in Palenville to chat over Zoom about the making of this record, collaboration, friendship, the mystery of existence, carrot cake, and more.

Host Justin Maiman, from Cairo, Greene County, NY, shares his latest inspirations on the "Ginger Radio Hour." The show features music, field recordings, performances, and interviews, primarily with people in and around the Catskill Mountains of New York live from WGXC's Acra studio.
