On August 16th Terry Prine, Nick Benich, Chris Berens, and Greg Brown of the band Greater California joined me on the phone for a quick interview. We discussed various aspects of their newest release Somber Wurlitzer including how the group came to own the Wurlitzer piano, late night recording sessions, and a sense of nostalgia.

The opening music for the podcast is actually from the opening track of Somber Wurlitzer, “The Appearing”. Closing out the interview is “May Day” also from the same album.

On June 28th I had a chance to speak with Joey Andrews, the drummer for six-piece Nashville band De Novo Dahl. We spoke for about 20-25 minutes and this is the resulting audio. We talk about what it is like to be a band in Nashville, the performance aspect of being in a band (De Novo Dahl often wear matching costumes), and about the band in general.

Opening music for the podcast was taken from “Piggy’s Adventure” a track off their album Cats & Kittens. The interview closes with the full song “Monday Morning” from the same album.
