Two guests this week on pat radio: Couch Forts and Our Cat Philip, two bands charting their own course of pop, folk and acoustic music. Then there's a set of noisier music to maintain equilibrium.And I have a pair of tickets to the These New Puritans / El Jesus de Magico show at the Wexner Center on June 13 to give away. Listen to win. Play along at home or at the office.Stream: http://patr...
