Podcasts about alternative music

Scarlet House is one of the most intriguing emerging voices in alternative music—and his story goes far beyond the music.In this episode of Caught on the Mike, we go back to the beginning with the 25-year-old Charlotte, North Carolina artist and explore how his experiences with homelessness, cancer, heartbreak, and survival helped shape the sound and identity of Scarlet House.We also dive deep into his highly anticipated debut album, Angels, arriving August 28. Scarlet House opens up about the inspiration behind the 14-track record, the emotional journey connecting songs like “With You,” “Cherish,” “Who We Were,” and “Made For You,” and why his newest single is one he simply wants to let speak for itself.We talk about the evolution from Homecoming to Angels, creating music as a one-man band, his cinematic blend of shoegaze, grunge and alternative rock, touring with Violent Vira and Flawed Mangoes, and stepping onto the Vans Warped Tour stage.This is a conversation about music, survival, vulnerability, and what happens when you turn your experiences into something other people can feel.Scarlet House's debut album Angels is out August 28.www.caughtonthemike.comcaughtonthemike@gmail.com

In this episode, Charles sits down with TJ Horn, a Boston-area drummer who has played with several bands — most notably the critically acclaimed Walter Sickert and the Army of Broken Toys. Beyond his drumming career, TJ is a passionate live music fan who set a personal record in 2025 by attending 75 concerts in a single year. He's also known in certain Boston circles for his live readings of erotic fan fiction. It's a wide-ranging conversation about music, performance, and what it means to love live shows. TJ traces his passion for live music back to a 1994 Depeche Mode concert at the Blockbuster Pavilion in Glen Helen, California — a show his uncle brought him and his family to when he was just 12 years old. That night sparked a lifelong obsession. That same year, his uncle also took him to Metallica, Nine Inch Nails, and the legendary Lollapalooza '94 — where TJ saw the Smashing Pumpkins, Beastie Boys, L7, and a then-unknown Green Day, just weeks before they exploded in popularity. Over the years, TJ has accumulated remarkable concert stories: chatting with Fred Durst for 40 minutes at Ozzfest while watching Tool, seeing Porno for Pyros perform a surprise acoustic set on a walkway at Lollapalooza '95, and stumbling upon a tiny 40-person Touché Amoré show after standing in the snow for a wristband. His 75-show year in 2025 came about naturally — fueled by a wide network of friends with different musical tastes, a work schedule that freed up his evenings, and a simple philosophy of saying yes when a cheap ticket or a spare invite came along. On the music-making side, TJ is a self-taught drummer who got his start playing along to Green Day and the Ramones in his bedroom as a military kid who had just moved to Boston. He's gone on to play with bands spanning punk, hardcore, and art-rock, including The Martyrs and a rock opera project featuring Amy Winehouse's saxophonist and members of The Replacements. His longest creative relationship has been with Walter Sickert and the Army of Broken Toys — a theatrical "steam crunk" band known for elaborate costumes, steampunk conventions, annual RPM Challenge albums, and now an upcoming horror sci-fi film directed by Walter himself. TJ also speaks fondly of the erotic fan fiction readings that made him unexpectedly famous in Boston's burlesque and cosplay scene — a side gig that started with dramatic readings of bad dating app messages and turned into a crowd-favorite variety act.

Send us Fan MailYour brain is making a decision about someone before they even say a word and it might be the wrong one. We start with a real, funny, and surprisingly thoughtful sit-down with Charlotte artist AAsher Saintt, digging into what makes him who he is beyond music: an introvert with a loud internal world, a love for walking, and a mission-driven approach to art. He breaks down his creative process in a way every independent musician will recognize, from catching melodies in the moment to building records later in the studio, plus how influences like Kendrick Lamar, Michael Jackson, and Nina Simone show up in his sound.Then we switch gears into Bounce Breakdown mode with a fast-moving mix of culture and headlines: our Essence Fest media recap, what VIP access actually changes, and why lines and logistics can make or break the experience. We also talk through a tragic story involving Buddhist monks in Thailand, a “karma” burglary case that feels like a movie plot, and an 18-year-old football player's death that leaves big questions about trust, phones, and who you should move with.Finally, Lex takes the wheel for Triggered with a deep dive into the halo effect, pretty privilege, and how AI beauty filters can literally change how trustworthy people seem. We connect the psychology to real cases, internet behavior, and the uncomfortable truth that perception is not reality and character is proven by actions.

The founders of The Festival, Nick and Dustin, join The Austin Young Show to talk about what it really takes to build an independent music festival from the ground up. Best known to many as members of the Dallas ska band Set The Tone, they share the story behind launching the festival, the challenges of supporting local artists, the importance of the DIY music scene, and what's in store for this year's event. Whether you're a fan of ska, punk, independent music, or you're curious about the people working behind the scenes to keep live music alive, this conversation offers an inside look at the passion, hustle, and community that make it all happen.

Alejandro Aranda—also known as Scarypoolparty—joins Caught on the Mike for a wide-ranging conversation about his musical journey, his creative process, and the release of his new EP, Baroque.After captivating audiences as the runner-up on American Idol in 2019, Alejandro has continued to chart his own artistic path, releasing acclaimed projects including Exit Form, Doom Hologram, The Act of Forgiveness, and now Baroque. Rather than following trends, he's built a reputation for blending classical, jazz, indie rock, electronic music, pop, and drum & bass into a sound that's entirely his own.In this episode, Alejandro discusses the inspiration behind Baroque, how the project reflects both his musical influences and personal evolution, and why he continues to challenge himself creatively with every release. We revisit his American Idol experience, explore his distinctive fingerstyle guitar technique, and talk about songwriting, artistic independence, and the freedom that comes from creating music without being confined by expectations or genre labels.Whether you've followed Alejandro since his American Idol days or recently discovered his work as Scarypoolparty, this conversation offers an insightful look at one of today's most inventive singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, as well as the mindset that continues to shape his evolving career.www.caughtonthemike.comcaughtonthemike@gmail.com

"My temple is twinned, my icky is thumped, and my asylum is Kia." The hosts break down country artist Charley Crockett's decision to drop the satanic doo-wop duo Twin Temple from his tour schedule. The situation took an unexpected turn when rock icon Jack White stepped in to save the day, offering Twin Temple an opening slot at the Hollywood Palladium. This leads the hosts to debate whether the entire falling out was a genuinely naive booking blunder or a cleverly orchestrated PR stunt meant to drive headlines and attention for both parties. The hosts explore the viral internet concept known as the "Kia Asylum" (or Kya Asylum). They explain how the term describes pop stars, one-hit wonders, and alternative acts whose careers get stalled or shelved by labels after failing to replicate the massive commercial success of an early hit single. The discussion covers mainstream pop figures like Lizzo, Bebe Rexha, and Kim Petras, analyzing the difference between having a fleeting viral hit and cultivating a sustainable, long-term fanbase.

"A lot of news is just discourse. And I'm like, that's not news... News is when a band announces like a tour. That's news."  A massive portion of what is presented as "music news" today isn't actually news at all; it's social media discourse. Through a mix of industry critique, and scene nostalgia Brian and Lizzie explore how stan culture and algorithmic metrics have fundamentally broken the way we talk about art. They dissect the sudden resurgence of the two-year-old drama between music critic Anthony Fantano and pop-alternative star Halsey. Is it a case of "main character syndrome," or a deeper look into the death of traditional music criticism? Plus, stick around to hear our thoughts on the latest music releases they're currently listening to.    JOIN THE CLUB!

We also explore his own artistic journey through Post Death Soundtrack, a bold 15-album legacy of confronting mental health, philosophy, darkness, and the complexities of the human experience.This is a conversation about art, authenticity, the underground, and why the musicians who leave a lasting impact are often the ones brave enough to say something real.www.musicwithdepth.comhttps://www.instagram.com/musicwithdepthpr/https://www.facebook.com/musicwithdepthprhttps://postdeathsoundtrack.bandcamp.com/album/barren-mother-of-allhttps://www.facebook.com/postdeathsoundtrack/https://www.instagram.com/post_death_soundtrack/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2025Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com or vradio@onlyonemediagroup.com
