MJ Lenderman dropped by KEXP on September 18, 2025, to deliver a raw, live rendition of “Knockin.” Backed by Landon George (bass, fiddle), Jon Samuels (guitar), Trevor Nikrant (pedal steel, keys), Avery Sullivan (drums) and a chorus of vocals, this stripped-down session captures all the grit and charm of Lenderman’s songwriting.
Hosted by Cheryl Waters with Kevin Suggs engineering and Matt Ogaz mastering, the performance was shot by Jim Beckmann, Carlos Cruz, Leah Franks, Scott Holpainen and Luke Knecht, and edited by Jim Beckmann.
