2019/11/27

“Should Only People Who’ve Been To Space Dress As Spacemen?” Well, it’s certainly a good question. In this follow-up to his wildly popular episode wherein he offered an explanation about Brexit, singer/songwriter Owen Vyse is back and this time he’s tackling cultural appropriation, intentionality and gender bias. A discursive chat that starts in a construction zone in Bangkok and ends at an early ‘90s Halloween party where Owen’s costume is inspired by Shaft and P-Funk, this is one of those

"The Atmospheric Drinking Game" If you were to check out the reviews of All India Radio's discography you'd find that pretty much at one point or another every music journalist has described this Melbourne band's sound as being atmospheric. In fact, if you were to take a drink every time you ran into the word, you'd be drunk pretty fast. To be fair, All India Radio's sound IS atmospheric, but it's also so much more. The band's new long player Eternal is a textured blend of bewitching soundscapes

"The Eighth Child Was The First One Born In A Hospital" ....and that eighth child was Crystal Gale. The Kentucky-bred Gale was the only one of her seven siblings to be born in a hospital and perhaps that ended up being a metaphor for her career. While her mother eschewed a homespun homebirth for Gale, the singer/songwriter later eschewed traditional country music by imbuing it with a little pop. The Grammy-Award-winning Gale's remarkable career as an international superstar has landed her a star on

"Everybody Had Heard Them Songs" When The Sherlocks went into the studio to record their first album Live For The Moment, their arsenal of songs had already been battle-tested on the road. In fact, before the band even put a record out, many of those songs were already fan favorites. The challenge when recording their second album Under Your Sky, was putting together a collection that people weren't familiar with. Up for the test, the South Yorkshire outfit have released one of the best albums of

"Throw It In The Bin And Don't Worry About It" That's Glenn Campling's motto when it comes to the music business and it's a good one. Why worry about the pressures of an industry that can't be pleased? Please yourself, man! In this interview the former Tones on Tail bassist talks candidly to Alex about his friendship with Daniel Ash, his feelings about David J and his take on the Bauhaus reunion gigs. He also talks about why Tones on Tail broke up, why their sound couldn't be replicated by one of

"Keep Your Hands Loose And Beat Out The Time With Your Feet" That's Mike Mesaros' advice for any aspiring bass player. In this conversation the Smithereens bassist talks to Alex about how watching Pete Townsend informed his playing style and taught him to keep his hands loose and beat out the time with his feet--in other words, he learned to play with his whole body. In this thoughtful conversation Mesaros reflects on the lifelong friendships that are the foundational elements of The Smithereens

"Golf Clubs Gliding Through Space" Well, not exactly. But in spite of the fact that Greg Laswell is a singer-songwriter of tremendous sensitivity, if you happen to see him on the golf course, he might be throwing a club across the course. In this engaging, contemplative and honest interview, the Long Beach-born Laswell talks to Alex about how even though he's a chill guy, something about playing golf lets out his inner demon. Laswell also chat about getting through a terrible year, how he's

"Brexit: Allergy Medication Or Baffling British Political Strategy" Let's be honest: you have no idea what Brexit is. I mean, you kind of know, but you don't REALLY know that much. Well, you're not alone. I don't get it either, but I want to. In this wildly educational chat with Owen Vyse, who sang for Starclub and toured as a guitar player with Echo and the Bunnymen, Owen explains blow by blow EXACTLY what Brexit is and how we got here in the first place. Sure, he's drinking a lot of red wine

"The Impossible Falcon Flies" And it almost didn't. Although the brother/sister duo Wardell, which is comprised of Theo and Sasha Spielberg, had a ton of momentum with their debut album Love/Idleness in early 2015, the follow-up took years to make and it almost didn't happen. But thank god it did. Titled Impossible Falcon, the band's new long player is a bewitching blend of mesmerizing indie pop and dreamy ballads that rank it among the best albums of 2019. In this engaging and spirited interview,

2019/09/25

"Feminine, Marvelous And Tough" Using that line from the poet Ted Berrigan is the only way that Alex can describe what it was like to see Paula Cole play live in 1995. A spellbinding performer whose arresting and percussive approach to music was as refreshing as it was exciting, all these years later Paula Cole is still one of the most thrilling musicians in the business. The Massachusetts native's brand new album Revolution is a sonorous indictment of the dangers of silence and it urges us to

"The Best Thing To Do In High School? Start A Band, Man" That's what Phil Radiotes did. The Bay Area born musician grabbed his friends and they spent their high school years playing in a band. But here's the thing: that band still exists. Although almost 20 years have passed and the band have relocated to Brooklyn, Phil and the Osophers have almost 15 albums under their belts and their spry indie pop has never sounded better. In this chat Radiotes talks to Alex about leaving the Bay Area, how he

2019/09/16

“Drive Your Convertible Into What’s Left Of The Summer” Wilderado’s “Surefire” is such a late summer anthem that it makes Alex want to get in his convertible and drive into what’s left of the summer. But then he remembers: he doesn’t have a convertible and he’s in the middle of doing a podcast. So: back to business. Convertible or not, Wilderado’s track is so catchy, so free and so irresistibly awesome, it’s one of the year’s best songs. Not only that, but this American outfit are quickly

“Don’t Die Alone In A Dark Room” That’s the thesis that James Levy and Alex arrive at in this epic conversation. It’s how Serge Gainsbourg ended up, and as far as endings go, that’s about as big of a downer as you can get. A discursive mediation on life, love, human behavior, the creation of art and why we do it in the first place, the Vermont-born singer-songwriter opens up about—well, about pretty much everything. With his remarkable new album Somebody out now, Levy also talks to Alex about Bob

"Give This Album A Grammy And Get On With It” It’s hard to explain how brilliant Bernard Fowler’s new album Inside Out is. A percussive and poetic spoken word reimagining of The Rolling Stones’ songbook, Inside Out is an innovative and wildly creative collection. If there’s any justice in this world, this record will not only be nominated for an album—it will win one. A touring member of The Stones since 1989, the New York-born Fowler has one of the most distinctive voices in the business. In this

“Kristin Hersh Makes Me Feel Better About My Birthday” It’s not easy turning…22. Okay, 49, but what really takes the sting out of the advancing years is a conversation with Kristin Hersh on your birthday. Alex welcomes the singer/songwriter back to the podcast on his birthday and the two get right to it, chatting about life, family, art and survival. They cover Hersh’s perspective on the Throwing Muses, why you should always separate the artist from the art and the rigors of the music industry. A

"Of Sisyphus And The Rock (And Roll)” In this conversation with Wylder’s Will McCarry, Alex and the singer/guitarist uncover the tricky and bottomless nature of being an artist, likening the process to Sisyphus rolling the rock up the hill. In other words, once a song is written, instead of spiking the ball and stopping the clock, musicians go back to the grindstone to do it all over again. An intimate, revealing and honest chat about the life of a musician, McCarry talks to Alex about how he

“I Haven’t Talked To Stephanie Seymour In 30 Years” The last time I spoke to Stephanie Seymour was 1989. She was a publicist at Island Records and I was the Music Director of my college radio station. Stephanie and I lost touch after she left Island to go on tour with her band The Aquanettas but we’re back in touch now! In this entertaining conversation Seymour catches Alex up on the last 30 years and talks about what happened to the Aquanettas, why she didn’t make music for ten years and how she

“Don Felder Says You’ll Never Master The Game” Although he’s one of the most legendary guitar players of all time, Don Felder says music is like golf—it’s a game you can’t master. That said, Felder is pretty masterful. The Florida born musician’s third solo album American Rock and Roll is further evidence that he’s one of the most innovative players on the planet and at the height of his creative powers. In this chat Felder talks to Alex about musical discipline, his love of B.B. King and what

“Two Terrible High School Class Presidents Come Clean” It doesn’t take long in this conversation with Modern Love Child’s Jonny Shane for he and Alex to realize they had a few things in common: they were both high school class president and they were both terrible at it. Motivated only by giving disruptive speeches, the two laugh about how they had no interest or capacity in their jobs beyond that. But poor student officer past aside, Shane is a remarkable songwriter, whose compositions are flecked

Geoff Downes Always Knew He Wasn’t Going To Be A Concert Pianist” Although Geoff Downes is a staggering keyboard player who is truly one of modern music’s great composers and innovators, as a young man, he came to terms with the fact that he wasn’t going to be a concert pianist. Taking an alternative path through music, Downes formed The Buggles with Trevor Horn, then joined Yes for their Drama album. Teaming up with John Wetton of King Crimson, Steve Howe of Yes and Carl Palmer of Emerson, Lake
