Mo is living my dream life as a radio show host - getting to play music all day, interview musicians, and brighten people’s days by talking with listeners and sometimes giving away concert tickets. Me being one of those people… a few times.

She’s involved in music in so many different ways. Even if she doesn’t always see it herself, she is definitely a musician. Beyond that, though, she pours so much of her heart into helping other musicians succeed, whether that’s giving them a chance to be featured on her local segment, promoting their work, supporting them at shows, or even hosting concerts to showcase local bands. Lastly, Mo talks about her MySpace profile song… what was yours?

Other than Pat trying to kill me, he’s a pretty solid guy. Well… there’s one more issue. Once he stops trying to kill me and switches baseball teams, he might finally become the perfect man.

Pat plays guitar in the Arizona-based band Light Sleeper. In this episode, we talk about how the band came together, their upcoming shows and merch. We also discuss Pat’s musical influences, his favorite video games, and plenty more.

Sometimes the coolest connections happen in the most random ways. Manny and I were supposed to meet. He was sent to me at the right time.

Manny and I have very different music tastes, but that didn’t stop us from having a nonstop conversation. We covered so many new topics for the show, including music engineering, live sound, music therapy, AI in music, local music communities, and how where you grow up shapes the music you connect with.

Manny is someone who creates with what he has and makes things happen instead of waiting for perfect conditions. One thing that really stuck with me was when he said, “You can get so lost trying to perfect things.” So cool how a sticker can turn into an episode. I’m excited for you all to meet my new friend!

Hi friends! Welcome to this week’s episode, featuring Xander and Peaches. Without giving away too much, we get into Xander’s current project, Synchronic, and discuss the difference between a band, a project, and an artist. Naturally, we can't talk to a musician from Philly without asking who has the best cheesesteak.

If you haven’t checked out Synchronic’s remixes yet, now’s the time! As Xander mentions, “Art, it’s there to be shared.” Full-length album dropping August 31.

In this week’s episode, we’re joined by Sean, a professional musician who’s built his career playing in bands, touring, and writing across genres. With new music on the way from Les Palms, we talk through what it looks like to start a band, grow as an artist, and make a living in the music industry.

From picking up his first Squier guitar and taking lessons at 10 years old, to playing early gigs at church, Sean shares how it all started. What began with a passion for Guitar Hero led to playing in cover bands, performing in bars, and building a career rooted in real experience and hard work.

Look out for new music from Les Palms, coming this Friday!

This week, Russell from Outlaw Stiffs joins me to talk about his love and appreciation for music, how it started at an early age and how he’s always found a way to stay involved.

Russell bought his first bass with money from summer jobs, taught himself covers, and learned the ropes from friends in bands like Crystal Ship and Sweet Cheater - going to shows, unloading gear, and seeing how everything worked before forming his first band in high school.

“You can tell a lot about a person by their musical taste.”

Kooper started taking guitar lessons before he even owned a guitar — he’d just show up and watch. That eventually turned into touring and playing major shows/festivals.

In today’s episode, I talk with Kooper Hanosky, guitarist for Citizen Soldier. We get into how he got started, the Craigslist connections that helped get things moving, and what it takes to keep a band running.

Kooper breaks down the benefits of wearing different hats in a band, the sacrifices that come with it, and what their recent European tour was like. Along the way we get into the music industry, the “punk mindset”, and why fans are usually pretty good at spotting what’s real and what’s not.

This week, we welcome Emmy - one of the biggest music fans I know. She’s been to more concerts than I can count and owns more band merch than anyone I’ve met. In fact, that’s how we met — she was wearing merch while I was out promoting the band I was in at the time.

Emmy didn’t just show up for big-name artists, she was one of the best local music supporters in Rexburg. As she puts it, “it was a privilege to be a part of the Rexburg music scene.” She showed up for Hycie, loved seeing Carry On Kid, and even recaps their reunion show that she attended last September.

If you know Emmy, you already know her favorite band. If you don’t, you’ll have to listen and find out. She’s seen them more times than I have siblings! She also teaches us a new game that I’m confident we’ll all be playing the next time we’re out with friends, at a concert, or even at an amusement park. For anyone still figuring out adulting… don't worry, Emmy has that covered too!
