About this listen

The Music List Podcast takes a recipe for entertainment- a hotly debated musical topic, three siblings who love to argue, and open mics, and then tosses them into a mixing bowl. Shake up the bowl, and fireworks happen. The goal is to take a musical question such as greatest voice in a genre, best album during a decade, or best song by a group and create a master list to answer that question. The real battle begins when the siblings have to agree on the top five. Join Heather, Ben, and Beth, as they tackle the topics, the facts, and each other to make the definitive Music Lists.The Music List Podcast 2022 Music

  • Best Family Bands: Bands Build on Bloodlines
    Jan 28 2026

    In this episode, the siblings tackle the Best Family Bands- acts build on bloodlines, not just talent. Though, genetics being what they are, talent, like apples, doesn't seem to fall far from the tree. Using The Music List's signature draft and debate format, we argue which bloodline ties that played together truly earned their legacy. The only rule? The musical act must have at least two members in it that are blood relatives. Mother and daughter, father and son, siblings, or even cousins. Shared blood means they're eligible for drafting.

    We discuss siblings' blood harmony, its effects on the music, and how shared DNA contributes to greatness. Of course, you can expect hot takes, humorous moments, and fierce arguments as siblings debate...other siblings. Join us and decide for yourself which family-based musical acts should earn top billing on The Music List!
