2017 was a rough year for many, which is why Jake Rudh is kicking off Transmission's first show of 2018 nice and smooth -- sophisti-pop smooth. What is sophisti-pop? It's artists who blended a mellow mix of pop, jazz, synth, bossa nova and more back in the mid to late '80s. Oh -- and dim the lights while you're tuning in; it's going to set the mood perfectly.
