Episode 312: The Flip Phones (Indie Rock) [Arlington, VA]

Episode 312 features The Flip Phones from Arlington, VA. In the interview, I spoke with Lindsey and Ryan, an acoustic-driven indie duo releasing a brand-new album this Friday. I featured their track “Polaris” on this episode, and if you like it, you can find all their music on Spotify or wherever you listen to music. In the interview we delved into all things writing, working, and staying inspired, and they even shared a song (by someone else) that was very germane to the conversation. If you're in NOVA and want to see them play, The Flip Phones will be posting all their dates on social media. Thanks for listening and supporting local music!

Episode 311: Naive Nature (Philly) [Indie Rock]

Episode 311 features Jackson of Naive Nature out of Philadelphia, a longtime friend of the show. Since his initial appearance as a guest, we have played many shows together in Philly, and he has become part of our core friend group there. I also have to give a shoutout to Scoopski, aka Jim, who is now Naive Nature’s drummer. We have a show coming up this Saturday, March 29th, at The Iris Garden Bar at Restaurant 198 in Burtonsville, MD, featuring Naive Nature, The Hollow Truths, The Jamie Frank Trio, and 2 Dollar Bill. The show starts around 7 PM, with The Hollow Truths closing at 10 PM. In this conversation, we talked about everything Naive Nature has been up to, including releasing new music, touring the East Coast, and being featured on local radio. I also featured Naive Nature’s track “Alright” on this episode. Thanks for listening and supporting local artists!

Episode 310: Brendan Clarke (B. Clarke) [Baltimore, MD]

Episode 310 features Brendan Clarke, AKA B. Clarke on Spotify, AKA @bassclarke on IG. He is quite possibly Baltimore’s busiest bass player. He plays with Old Eastern, Crooked Plants, and many others, including my band. He recently released a brand new solo EP called Late Winter. In this episode, I featured his track “Piojitos.” The episode also includes my brother Dylan, making his return to the show after first appearing way back in episode 3. In our conversation, we talked a lot about all things Baltimore, as well as the story behind Brendan’s track, which was loosely inspired by T. Swift. Thanks for listening and for supporting local art!

Episode 309 is a special South by Southwest recap episode featuring Brendan Lane and The Sugar Packets, Dominic Delaney, and Souls Extolled.

Also, a special shoutout to Chicken Ranch Records for always putting on their showcase. The episode is divided into three sections, with Zack from Souls Extolled starting it off.

Episode 308: Brian Wolff & The Howlers (Alt Rock) [Austin, TX}

Episode 308 features Brian Wolff from Austin, Texas. This is his second time on the show, and we’re playing a show together this Thursday in Austin at Liberty Bar on East 6th Street with a bunch of our friends from the podcast—so we’re all excited for that. Brian has been busy releasing music and recently received a grant from the city to record an album. We had a lot to catch up on, and I featured his latest track, Leave the Lights On.
Born in upstate New York, Brian moved to Austin in 2012. His musical style draws heavily from Classic Rock, ’90s Alternative, and Americana. His songs are marked by big guitars and impactful rhythms, complete with thoughtful, introspective, and unique lyrics. In the summer of 2024, Brian Wolff & The Howlers performed at Spiedie Fest in Binghamton, NY, sharing the festival stage with Chris Young and Shaboozey. They built a tour around it and spent the summer performing across the U.S. Shortly after, they were awarded a grant from Austin’s Live Music Fund. Thanks for listening and supporting local art!

Episode 307: Andrew Savage (Austin, TX) (Singer/Songwriter)

Episode 307 features Andrew Savage from Austin, Texas. We’re playing a SXSW showcase at Liberty Bar on 3/13, so I wanted to get him on the show to talk about his music and our upcoming gig. His latest track, Goddess of War, is featured in this episode and you can stream it wherever you listen to music. Andrew blends Americana and folk-punk, drawing from his San Antonio folk-punk roots with influences like Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, and Bright Eyes, crafting poignant, playful, and raw lyrics. Currently working on a full-length LP, you can follow @andrewsavage_music for updates. In the conversation discussed the changing Austin music scene and more. Thanks for listening supporting local artists!

Episode 306: The Hollow Truths (Brett & Christian) [Maryland]

Episode 306 features myself and Christian, aka half of The Hollow Truths. We released a new song today, so I wanted to catch up with Christian and talk about that, as well as some general stuff. The song is called ‘Guitars Aren’t Meant for Cases’ and is streaming wherever you listen to music. I’m proud of how it turned out, and as far as our catalogue goes, it feels like a step in a new direction. I would almost dare say that we’ve matured, but this episode will likely demonstrate otherwise. In any case, we’re gearing up for some shows this spring, including Austin for SXSW week with our buds from the pod: Brendan Lane, Brian Wolff, Bad Acid, and Dominique Delaney. As well as some gigs around town and up the east coast. Which I’ll be posting about on the band page. Thanks for listening and supporting local artists.

Episode 305: Get Wrecked! [Hardcore] (Cincinnati, OH)

Episode 305 features Get Wrecked from Cincinnati, Ohio. In the interview, I spoke with Aaron and Kris about the Cincinnati scene. I featured their latest track ‘Eternal Struggle’ on this episode. If you like it, you can stream it wherever you listen to music. The band’s sound is fairly hardcore and is self-described as ‘designed to have you head banging in your car while you chug your morning red bull to get the taste of PBR and clove cigarettes out of your mouth before you get to work.’ It was a fun conversation, and hopefully, you enjoy it wherever you are tuning in from. Thanks for listening and supporting local music.

Episode 304: Bad Acid (Atx) [Austin, TX] {Garage/Noise Rock}

Episode 304 features Bad Acid (ATX) from Austin, Texas. We will be playing a show together in March for a South by Southwest showcase that I gave been putting together, so I wanted to get them on the show. In the episode, I spoke with Keith Moore, a longtime veteran of the scene. I featured their new track “Stations” on this episode. Their sound could loosely be described as garage rock with some elements of punk. Our show will be at The Liberty Bar on East 6th Street on March 13th with former guests of the show Brian Wolff & Dominic Delaney, & Brendan Lane, among others. So if you are in town for the conference, feel free to stop by. Austin is always a great time during South by week, and I highly recommend getting down there one year if you haven’t been. This will be the first of a few episodes featuring Austin bands, as I often do in March. In the conversation, we talked a lot about the changing scenery of Austin, avoiding becoming jaded, and art as a whole. Thanks for listening and supporting local musicians.
