About This Show

Girlfriend is a vibrant and tender coming-of-age musical duet from when flannel was the height of fashion and mix tapes were the language of love.

It’s 1993 in small-town Nebraska during the summer between high school and whatever comes next. College-bound jock Mike and self-assured but aimless Will find themselves drawn to each other. Their rush of first-time love, full of excitement, confusion, and passion, is captured by the power-pop precision and frayed guitar emotion of Matthew Sweet’s alternative rock album Girlfriend.
