Jason Blum’s new album Radio Dial came out this past Tuesday. While Jason calls Austin home now he has not been a stranger to seemingly everywhere. Just like turning the radio dial each adjustment is like moving to a new town for Blum. He has hints of all his former residences living in his songs such as New Mexico, West Texas, New York, New Orleans, Washington DC and even Beirut on his newest record. You might say that Jason’s destiny was to become a musician. Blum’s father was a singer songwriter also and the two would sit and make up words to music thus teaching Jason how to write songs from an early age. You might recognize another familiar Austin voice on Radio Dial. His friend, Kat Edmonson appears on the song Blooming in the Sun. Although delayed slightly, the CD release party in Austin is set for April 19th at Strange Brew Lounge. – Courtney Pierce
