• Damien Jurado wrote and sings the John in the Morning theme. It's played each day before DJ John Richards starts "The Morning Show" at 6am PT on KEXP, 90.3 in Seattle. www.kexp.org I like John and the music he plays. I like the little theme song and always find myself singing along w/it. I don't think I've heard anything else by Damien Jurado. I dunno, maybe I have and don't remember. Listening to John and Cheryl makes work more tolerable, sometimes even joyous. The kids ask me the names of the artists/songs played when something catches their ear. That happens rather often these days. Just last week, Tyler asked me who was singing the "John in the Morning" song. He's asked me about The Thermals, The Horrors and The Hold Steady recently. Gina has asked me about Mates of State and Rhett Miller. Even Nicole asked me about Jack Pinate on Friday. I like teaching them that the radio CAN be good if we demand it and seek out quality stations. Hearing John's theme song means another day full of potential for the kids and me. Earlier today, I thought to look for the theme song on SM and was surprised that it wasn't already here. I don't see the lyrics listed anywhere online. Is that possible? I guess since we all sing them everyday, no one needs them posted. I added them earlier today, anyway. Just because.
