February is Love Austin Music Month. Learn more here. Photo by Michael Minasi/KUTX.
On his new album I Was Almost Happy, Central Texas rapper Wes Denzel tells the story of a romantic relationship from start to finish: the highs, the lows, and everything in between. With Valentine’s Day coming up this weekend, it’s perfect timing that Denzel is our guest DJ this week. As our Artist of the Month, he curates a special Valentine’s Day-inspired mix, featuring lovesick and lovelorn songs from Sade, Frank Ocean, the late MF DOOM, and more. Hear Wes Denzel’s My KUTX on Saturday, February 13 at 6 p.m. or listen anytime in the player above.
