The Noise Pop podcast is a monthly series that focuses on the best new music out there right now, hosted by Dawson Ludwig, produced by Allison Gore with research help by Peter Arko.

The rest of the northern hemisphere only has a few more weeks of summer, but San Francisco is just getting ready to start theirs (September and October). To celebrate SF’s strange weather patterns, we’ve assembled a mix of beach music that is the perfect ode to the heat and sun. We’re also introducing a new segment called Word of Mouth, where we bring in a guest to play a few songs for us. This time Peter Arko, of the blog Ears of the Beholder brings us three awesome new tunes from emerging artists.
