Bethany Lounge Acts

	Sign In Sign-Up

The Bethany Lounge first aired in February, 1997. Originally, all material came from CDs, most notably the Ultra-Lounge Series from Capital Records, but by the beginning of the Lounge's second year on air much of the playlist was being pulled from original recording LPs. Here's what regular listeners of the Lounge get to jam to each week.
