Visit: www.salty.com.au On CRUNCH, we're dialling in the distortion, kicking up the soul, and easing back into some American slow-burners. From Ian Siegal N Johnny Mastro's swamp-fired 'Balling The Jack' to Sweet Talk's full-tilt psych-blues rattle 'Have I Gone F&n Crazy?', this episode swings hard and lands smooth. We spotlight a stellar crew of Australian artists: Sweet Talk, Gwyn Ashton, Checkerboard Lounge N Bob Sedergreen, Hamish Anderson, Brad Palmer, Laurel and the Painkillers, The Blow Out, and Jimmy Dowling — each delivering grit, soul, and something unmistakably downunder. It's a vibrant cross-section of Australia's deep blues and indie roots scene. Threaded through the mix are laid-back American gems from Ray Bonneville, Lucy Kaplansky, Mia Kelly, and more — subtle, soulful and dusted in storytelling gold.

If nothing else, music is healing. Look no further than my guest on this episode—Dan Murphy, former lead guitarist from the 80s-90s cowpunk band Soul Asylum and the alt.country super group Golden Smog. The Minneapolis-based Murphy, who thought he had quit the music biz for good roughly 13 years ago, is in the midst of an unexpected musical renaissance. In this episode, Dan and I discuss his band the Scarlet Goodbye's (https://thescarletgoodbye.com/) second album El Camino Adios. We talk about his partnership with band co-founder Jeff Arundel, a few tunes from the record, and how he has rediscovered his love of being in a group again. Go grab a beer or two and dig into this one!

Ted Russell Kamp, a Los Angeles-based musician, songwriter, producer and country music dad, joins Dave and Donnie to talk about the evolution of modern country music from his perspective as one of the forefathers of the modern alt-country movement. Ted's balance between touring, producing, songwriting, and building a family is unique and inspiring.We also explore his time with Shooter Jennings, his recent solo work and drop a boatload of stories from his time on the road and in the studio.Show Notes2:23: Ted tells us a bit about his background and entry into the country music space and how he grew up not liking pedal steel. But once discovering The Band and Whiskeytown, things really changed.5:27: Ted's move to LA introduced him to many of the great California country legends, like Merle, Buck and Dwight -- and having the opportunity to play with those who played with them -- pushed him further into this space. 6:01: The Shooter Jennings Relationship starts like most great music relationships -- a Hollywood jam session in a dingy practice space. 10:28: Slappin' the Bass -- Ted has always loved the bass and that is how he can build trust with bands, musicians and production partners. 11:32: Six Degrees of Ted Russell Kamp gets us to Diplo and how his bass line got onto “Use Me (Brutal Hearts).” To quote Ted, this is a totally weird and wonderful LA rock star story. 18:09: The guys talk about Ted's semi-autobiographical album and the push and pull of the road and family life. Luckily, Ted and his wife worked together to create a balance that worked for them, but it wasn't easy and it took work to figure it out.27:20: The Dads talk about the resurgence of roots music and freedom the LA Music Scene allows for exploration and creativity in this space. Ted finds the genre orthodoxy from some in the scene to be an interesting aspect of this renaissance and provides a few examples for those looking to dip their toe in the alt-country Americana space. 31:30: A quick discussion of the nostalgia loop and how what was on the radio when your parents were driving you around as a kid influences you as an adult. But as the world gets more complex, people long for things like music that they can understand, Ted explains. 36:12: The Dad Life Sound Check provides a chance for Ted to tell stories about Waylon Jennings being a mensch, Dave shares some great news and Donnie talks about the passage of time while using the word “vibe” too many times. Ted also provides more insight into his song writing process.Thank you for listening.

Salty Dog's RAVEN Podcast, December 2024 I asked AI to write me a poem about Ravens and the Salty Dog Podcast, here's the word salad, ha ha: Under a sky of shadowed hues, Fly the ravens, with tales to choose. Their wings, a whisper, a velvet tune, Carrying secrets to the moon. And down below, where roots run deep, Salt dogs howl, and stories seep. In bluesy growls, the podcast sings, Of buried truths and ghostly rings. A crossroads where the wild meets lore, Ravens above, and salt dogs roar. In every note, a mystery blooms, Echoing through the timeless rooms.
