    BIOGRAPHY:
    Our guest this week is Kevin Cadogan out of Berkley, California. Kevin is a founding member of Third Eye Blind and performed with the band from 1993 to 2000. He co-wrote some of the band’s most notable hits, including "How's It Going to Be", "Losing a Whole Year", and "Graduate."
    Since parting ways with Third Eye Blind, Kevin has released solo material and has also began touring with XEB, a band made up of ex-Third Eye Blind members. In this episode we hear more about XEB, Kevin's experience in the music industry, and the advice he'd offer to bands early in their career.
    HIGHLIGHTS:

    We talk with Kevin about the perception people have of signed artists compared to the reality
    Kevin shares some of the backstory behind him parting ways with Third Eye Blind
    "Parting ways with Third Eye Blind was down to business and the ownership of the band name" - Kevin Cadogan
    "How a band is set up as corporation is the last thing you want to think about when you're creating" - Kevin Cadogan
    "The single most important thing I did was copyright my material" - Kevin Cadogan
    We hear about XEB and what we can expect from a live XEB show

    Kevin is my guitar hero. Open tunings funky rhythms and beautiful textures from plexi like face melting gain tones as well as ethereal slow wah wah sweeps and atmospheric delays - he is such a complete guitarist. His rhythm parts define a song in feel and melody at the same time, and his lead tones are so bold, his attack confident- I just love his studio work and in my few interactions online he has been very patiently and kind and generous with his time. Love you kev!

    Was listening to "Narcolepsy" the other day and found myself wondering who played the awesome guitar on that track. And here he is! Seems like a good guy, and pretty much played the soundtrack to my youth lol

    I still listen to the new iteration of 3EB as much as I have disdain for Jenkins. As far as I’m concerned Cadogan is the primary reason why those first 2 albums are still by far their best. Jenkins ironically screwed himself. I only wish Cadogan had a platform to show his talent because he’s one of the most amazing guitarists alive.

      We’d love to see an original lineup reunion some day!

      Out of the vein is just as good as blue in it’s own right but his influence on red is undeniable.

      Jenkins sucks. Cadogan was that sound.

      Out of the vein as well as Ursa Major are great albums as well. I get the love for Kevin but some you guys take it too far.

    When he refers to him as “The singer.” You know that rift is deep.

    He looks understandably bittter and being very careful about how he phrases things. I would love to sit down with him, over a few beers and have him tell me all the nitty gritty.

    • @BridgeTheAtlantic
      @BridgeTheAtlantic  4 роки тому +3

      Yeah, he was very careful about his responses, for sure.

    The band never was the same without Kevin. Kevin's music was never better than in the 3eb self-title. It sucks there always has to be so many hard feelings (no pun intended considering the hosts here) between such amazing artists. Artists generally make shit businessmen.
    I agree with Kevin usually in the drama side though. The band got fuckered.

    • @allstopblue5717

      The band put out great albums in Out of the Vein as well as Ursa Major without Kevin. What else did Kevin do in his career though? Seems to me Kevin and Jenkins made a great team. It sucks it fell apart. But to act like Kevin was the end all be all for the band is ridiculous. The 2 albums after him were great as well.

    3EB never EVER put a classic album out, not even close…after Kevin left. Stephan Jenkins sounds so editorial in an his interviews. That’s why I admire the music, not the artist.
