MJ Lenderman brought his signature blend of alt-country and indie rock to KEXP’s studio on September 18, 2025, delivering a tight five-song set that kicked off with “Rudolph” and rolled through “Joker Lips,” “Wristwatch,” “Rip Torn,” and “Knockin’.” Backed by Landon George (bass, fiddle), Jon Samuels (guitar), Trevor Nikrant (pedal steel, keys) and Avery Sullivan (drums), he kept the energy high from start to finish under the watchful ear of host Cheryl Waters and engineer Kevin Suggs.
Captured by a five-person camera crew and polished by editor Jim Beckmann and mastering engineer Matt Ogaz, this live session perfectly showcases Lenderman’s gritty vocals and hook-driven guitar work. Catch the full performance at mjlenderman.com or at kexp.org.
