Episode 693: Chuck Prophet
Music is, at once, a vector for connection and escape. Chuck Prophet found both, as at a bar in San Francisco’s Mission District. Cumbia, a popular dance genre born in Columbia, pulsates through Wake the Dead. Forty years into his professional and on the other side of a battle with stage four lymphoma, the album finds the Bay Area musician with a new musical lease on life.

Episode 690: Grant Mullen (Naked Giants)
Переглядів 1314 днів тому
What does “maturity” mean for a rock band? The answer is, perhaps, a bit easier to answer when you’ve been together since age 18. For Naked Giants, it means grown up things - getting jobs, starting families. It’s not necessarily fodder for a band’s young punk days, depth of subject is in an important part of growing up as a band - and having a fanbase that grows along with you.

Episode 689: Ruthie Foster

Last month, Mileage scored Sun Records’ first-ever Grammy nomination. It’s hard to believe for a 72-year-old label that was once home to Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash.

Mighty Vertebrate hits different. In a world of sound a likes and slow burns, Anna Butterss' latest solo record makes itself known from immediately out of the gate. The album is as eclectic as it is fresh unsurprising, given the musician varied career, performing as the bassist for Jason Isbell's group, performing along side Phoebe Bridgers and Jenny Lewis, and serving as one fifth of improvisa...
Episode 687: Zac Carper (Fidlar)
Переглядів 28Місяць тому
During our conversation, FIDLAR frontman Zac Carper reminds me of band’s acronym, Fuck It Dawg, Life's a Risk. Spontaneity has been a driving force throughout the band’s 15-year existence, but time comes experience and - hopefully - a bit of reflection. Surviving The Dream the band’s first record in five years - offers up that introspection, into work. Life and Carper’s recent bipolar diagnosis.

Episode 685: John Davis (Superdrag)
Переглядів 282 місяці тому
Few who have walked the Earth can write a pop song like John Davis. That prowess catapulted his group, Superdrag to massive success on the back of its 1996 single, "Sucked Out." The group's trajectory from there isn't wholly dissimilar from other groups who released a hit during the decade. The music business took an aggressive turn, culminating in the muddy horror show that was Woodstock 99, a...
Episode 684: Samuel Herring (Future Islands, Hemlock Ernst)

Plenty of musicians talk about 'leaving it all on the stage,' but few have offered as demonstrable an example as Samuel Herring. His live performance is a conduit for unbridled emotion, capturing mainstream attention as the frontman for Future Islands. As Hemlock Ernst, Herring's lyrics offer insight into life experiences, no better exemplified than on the hip-hop group's latest, Studying Absence.

Tom Petty's unexpected death in October 2017 effectively marked the end of the Heartbreakers. The band reunited a handful of times to pay tribute to the late singer, but its members have otherwise used the unfortunate opportunity to explore life beyond its confines. For Mike Campbell, the event marked the beginnings of a second career. His guitar playing and songwriter were foundational to the ...

if gira thinks lana is too quiet he has to listen to her unreleased "true love on the side"!
Those first two Red Krayola records and Corky have been prized pieces of my vinyl collection since I was a teenager. I'd love to talk to him about the Houston scene in the 60s. The Elevators are my favorite band, but the Krayola will always have a very special spot in my heart.
RIP Will 😢❤
I could do without his politics and boosters. Thought he knew better. Might just listen to RK a little less knowing that he, too, is now part of the establishment. Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young and Thompson.
oh cmon, the music is great
Brilliant guitar player and keeps active with his music i like yhat lot of people Faded after the 90s
I love bad books, they have been the biggest inspiration to me musically. Especially their third album, thanks for this interview with them!
this is an incredible interview. questions and conversations i actually want to hear lol
Great interview. Ivan is very funny and inspiring!
I love Toto my forever band
Great interview!
A genius. This is an invaluable resource.
Heard this before I went to his show recently in la • it’s nice to hear
You are a magnificent player. Keep going, sir.
very enjoyable. thank you!
It's a damn shame only a few shows in McLusky's prime were ever sold out. Those records are some of the best rock music I have ever heard.
This is a hidden gem of a conversation. So compelling
It’s weird? A fake Led Zeppelin!!! These youngsters LOVE them. HAHAHA!!!
Fake ,Fake, Fake
Excellent interview with seriously deep questions and answers. Jack is a national treasure.
53:30
great listen! Can't wait for the Magick Show
Great interview. ❤
Coloured vinyl? Thank heavens I’m a CD man
I never knew who wrote Trots and Bonnie. I simply became a fan when I first read National Lampoon in the early 1970s. For some reason, I simply typed in "Trots and Bonnie" into the computer on UA-cam. I got this. Live and learn, even at eight decades age.
sorry, but there might be a block on this - how can i be the only responder?
Nonetheless, a pivotal teenage influence. They should have toured the world in 1981 and ended the Cold War earlier w/ Gang of Four & Wire as backup/mix-up ammo. Soon, The Mother's Army will recruit all (human & OTHER) females & children - ALL AGES able to work a sling, atlatl, bow or blowgun (handicapped/disabled encouraged). Yes, the BOYS CLUB can't function without gunpowder. Right?
🔥💟🖤 AWESOME VIDEO 🖤💟🔥
Sweet paw tracks man
Thanks for this, not too many interviews w her and i wanted to hear more abt her newest album :)
Joyce farmer is ANTI-CHRISTIANITY. She sacrificed her unborn baby to finish college??
Gay teachers, stop sexualizing young children in elementary
Unborn and fathers have rights.

Does any one know which artist Micheal is reffering to at 14:38 ? I can't figure out the spelling of the name.
Diamanda Galas!
I love this. I appreciate every Will interview I come across. what an inspiration, what a true hero of art.
Best era of Swans was between 1986 and 1995 with Jarboe. Since then it's just self indulgent enterprise for Michael.
Holy Cope (A Bad Take)
Great interview! ❤
Amazing interview. The whole conversation was just so sincere and insightful, and I really empathize with both Marc and you regarding your struggles. Thank you for this.
Great musician who made beautiful contributions. Appreciate the thought & efforts for the creations Sean & The High Llamas
