Zach Braff is Our Guest DJ

“This song will change your life”

Zach braff

With those words, spoken by actress Natalie Portman, Zach Braff became much more than a charming and talented actor – he became a music tastemaker. Zach wrote, directed and starred in the film Garden State which was as much a tribute to great indie music as it was to his home state. He won a Grammy for the soundtrack and helped catapult The Shins, a longtime KCRW favorite, to stardom.

For his Guest DJ set, Zach talks about how his connection to LA’s singer-songwriter scene introduced him to indie music and picks his favorite standouts to spotlight. He professes his love for poetic lyrics and melody and his frustration at seeing a fantastic artist play to a near-empty room. Check out this picks HERE
