Episode 23 - Adam Measel (of DOMMEL MOSEL)

The Earth Hotel ·

2017/06/13

He's a dommel good singer and a songwriter with the mosel tunes around. Adam Measel is the man within Dommel Mosel, the Birmingham pop "sadboy" group that brings morose quips to the jangly center of our collective heart. We met at a secret spot to talk on Memorial Day and I bring that convo to you. He recorded two original songs and we collaborated on a third for the moment's sake. Dommel Mosel (the band) performed as part of Avondale Fight Club 2: The Altercation on June 3rd, presented by

Live at the Soft Rock Bungalow (Sex Camel + GS&N)

The Earth Hotel ·

2017/06/02

AHOY ALL EVERYONELast week we were treated to a rocking evening at the Soft Rock Bungalow starring Giant Sunbeam and the Noise and a beast of a band indeed: SEX CAMEL. This foursome of gentlemen make the sex desert passable and the sex dessert just within reach. Giant Sunbeam and the Noise Boys lent their bizarre twist to jazzy funk and laid down a killer middle set, and the Dizzy closed out with a mad powerhouse which was sadly not captured for posterity. We hope you enjoy this delicious bit of

Daniel Farris and Amber Locke from the Firehouse

The Earth Hotel ·

2017/05/30

Last Wednesday I was invited back to the Firehouse to see a series of talented folks lay down the dense noise and innaresting sound combinations. I managed to snag two phone recordings: Daniel Farris, with a multi-amp, multi-loop, quadraphonic performance that made Lou Reed's dead spine all tingly; and Amber Locke, in this case a seated seamstress of synth, sing, and melodica processing. She appears first, at 04:47, and Daniel at 24:20. Enjoy this week's concept-concert-contractual-clamoring, and

2017/05/27

The Earth Hotel is graced by old friends and new and possibly troubling phenomenon with our second live appearance. Our first was at Springfest, and now we bring a live guest, music, and an audience game of hangman for a creepy prize into the mix. Pink Pyramids are Caleb Gee (previously of Moma Cal Gal, see Walden Fest 2015), and Bobby Gill (see EH 1 Nuclear Milwaukee, the Holy Rollers, and Mickey and the Reserves). They plant a full set on us and we enjoy the outdoor air at the SRB for this edition

MEMS Live! at the Soft Rock Bungalow

The Earth Hotel ·

2017/05/23

We're beginning a concert series this week, because we have a distressing array of full, live sets from talented folks and we gotta do something with them. So this week you'll hear MEMS from Baltimore, who displayed an equally distressing array of instruments, vocal techniques, and time displacements in their performance at the Soft Rock Bungalow on April 12. Next TOOSDEE you'll be treated to sound bathing and immense sound from the Firehouse, with sets by Daniel Farris and Amber Locke. Thanks to

The Earth Hotel ·

2017/04/19

Amid strange local weather and a tumultuous Springing yet, we return for a minisode to satiate you late nighters with us until we can bring the noise back in full on Friday. Chroma Cove, the art gallery run by our Andrea Dillingham, has burned like a phoenix, but in our interview she assures me that this is not its final form. I agree, and support her fully, and you can too! Donate to her Gofundme here and help rebuild a physical sanctuary to house her art dreams:

Over the next three weeks, the minisodes will feature music from a promotional Springfest 2017 CD bearing a spread of artists that played the one-day festival in Woodlawn. Our art prayers go to that facility for a prosperous future.

He was joined by Montevallo and Nina Rat! Nina Rat!'s Lauren

My friend is Jordan, our band is the Dizzy, and this conversation is drunk, go home. We sat down for a dizzy afternoon indeed, and after a few whiskeys, we got down to the biziness of writing TV pilots, managing artistic expectations, and working our way back up from the brink day after day.Much thanks for Burning Astra for their sound submission this week, we'll have more viewer mail as the weeks go on for you to sink your ear-teeths into.

Eclipse dun got rocked by two bands this Friday night (March 3) and they both happen to be friends of mine. Giant Sunbeam and the Noise (Episode 7) and Cahaba (Montevallo Music Podcast and EH Archive) returned to the podcast from the Eclipse stage to show you some chops that they like to use musically. Unfortunately, the Cahaba recordings were not as impactful as the live show, so I'll include a track from their brand-new album BAD ASTRONAUT, coming soon.The next night, Saturday March 4th, I played

Neeta shares her time and talent between her original act, Sister Sniffle, now a band, Spores, a local "magical" act, and a solo acoustic act showcased here, BORINGHAM.

Payton and Kit of Whirlybird join me in the studio to play songs, improvise, talk of many things, and hope hard for the future. This episode features two of their own songs, and an improvised track with the three of us. Whirlybird are a snappy rock duo with equal parts brain and heart — watch out for them in Birminghams to come.This episode also includes a cut-up of a recent fundraising letter from the Alabama Republican Party, and we find that when you cut into propaganda, you get more double-speak
