I’m using a work around, which I’m pretty happy with. Basically I’m having Pianobar send the song name and artist to MMM-Syslog, which displays it on the screen with all my other system wide information. I’m currently working on the hardware and software to change songs and stations now.

I think that it would be awesome to have a Pianobar module that would display song titles as they are played. Something like https://learn.adafruit.com/pi-wifi-radio/ or http://www.instructables.com/id/Pandoras-Box-An-Internet-Radio-player-made-with/, but with the song title displayed at the bottom. The control buttons could all be placed on the edges of the mirror or perhaps done with voice control.

I don’t know about any of you, but rocking out while you are getting ready in the morning just makes sense.
