Rodney Crowell, often called a “songwriter's songwriter” and a foundational voice in Americana, joins Rhett for a conversation about intention, craft, and the long game of staying creatively alive. Crowell shares hard-won lessons about process: how spending time on memoir pages puts him in a “workshop of words,” so that when he turns back to the guitar he's already thinking in language. He talks about patience as the difference between forcing a song and letting it reveal itself, his approach to collaboration, the discipline of revision, and how creative confidence is built the unglamorous way: by showing up for the work, again and again. His new album “Airline Highway” is available now. Follow Rodney @rodneyjcrowell Follow Rhett @rhettmiller Wheels Off is hosted and produced by Rhett Miller. Executive producer is Kirsten Cluthe, Studio Kairos. Music by Old 97's. Episode artwork by Mark Dowd. Show logo by Tim Skirven.

Stanley Simmons: From Viral Moment to Americana Revival | Evan Stanley & Nick Simmons Interview In this episode of Caught on the Mike, host Mike sits down with Evan Stanley and Nick Simmons, the folk-Americana duo behind Stanley Simmons, for a conversation about creativity, connection, and finding the right sound at the right time. Though they've known each other their entire lives—and grew up immersed in music history as the sons of Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of KISS—they never intended to collaborate. That changed after a spontaneous viral Instagram video revealed an undeniable vocal chemistry, what they describe as a “third voice,” and sparked the formation of Stanley Simmons. The conversation explores the making of their debut single “Body Down,” a song rooted in Americana, folk, blues, and classic songwriting traditions, while feeling distinctly modern. Evan and Nick discuss writing 41 songs in just 11 months, working with legendary producer Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Fleetwood Mac, Paramore), and how early bedroom demos evolved into a full-length album. They also reflect on creating music without chasing trends, navigating legacy without leaning on it, and why they believe music is medicine—a form of resilience, expression, and connection in uncertain times. If you're a fan of Americana music, folk revival, singer-songwriters, roots rock, or artists like Fleetwood Mac, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Noah Kahan, and Harry Styles, this episode offers a thoughtful look at two artists building something honest and enduring.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KThe latest Notorious Mass Effect segment examines Zach Bryan's bold sixth studio album, With Heaven on Top, released January 9, 2026, via Belting Bronco/Warner Records. Hosted by Analytic Dreamz, this in-depth review covers the 25-track project (runtime ~78 minutes), entirely written and produced by Bryan in Tulsa-area Oklahoma homes, blending raw Americana, folk, and outlaw country with themes of sobriety, recovery, marriage, past relationships, loss, addiction, fatherhood doubts, and American identity tensions.Just three days later, on January 12, Bryan dropped a 24-track acoustic version—raw, one-take recordings with intentional imperfections—to counter overproduction critiques, preserving his authentic roots. Standout tracks include "Skin" (addressing his 2023–2024 breakup with Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, tattoos, and sobriety), "Plastic Cigarettes" (emotional depth), "Runny Eggs" and "Camper" (softer nods to his New Year's Eve 2025 marriage to Samantha Leonard in Spain), and the controversial "Bad News" (politically charged ICE references and fading American dream).Critical reception praises Bryan's vulnerability and storytelling—Rolling Stone calls it his "most considered and accomplished," Pitchfork notes his growth on a "larger canvas" (7.0 rating), while others highlight emotional power amid excessive length causing fatigue. The album reinforces Bryan's status as a generation-defining force in Americana, post-Navy service (honorably discharged 2021), with massive catalog success (~$350M sale in 2025), billions in streams, and a 2026 stadium tour featuring MJ Lenderman, Dijon, and Alabama Shakes.Analytic Dreamz breaks down personal reflections, buzz tracks, controversies, and why With Heaven on Top delivers an unflinching portrait of flux in modern life, solidifying Bryan's raw honesty despite debates over sprawl.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For and this Toe Tag.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is normally a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you at the heart of mystery. Today is a bonus episode we call a Toe Tag. It is the first chapter from a fresh release in the mystery, crime, and thriller genre.Featured release is FOREWARNED by Tracy S. PhillipsFOREWARNED is a suspense. It's the summer of 1976 in Carlson, Indiana and the lives of two teens intertwine in a way that will change both their lives forever. Still reeling from her parents' divorce, 15-year old Daphne Post sees the family next door as having everything she doesn't. But Lara Vaughn is tired of doing what her parents expect and is working to break out of the box she was born into. Daphne senses tragedy is about to fall but who will be the dead and who will be the guilty.Bottom line: FOREWARNED is for you if you like Americana suspense with a whisper of the paranormal and historical fiction.At its heart, this suspense is built around skewed ideals and what happens when the veils fall. The story opens on Daphne's 15th birthday, the day her family arrives at her grandmother's lake home. It's the first summer without her father, the first summer after the divorce. Daphne blames her mother and has gone to calling her by her first name. She's trapped in a house with her mother and aunt, brother and two cousins, all younger. What from the outside looks like teen angst and defiance masks heartbreak and anger. Daphne looks to the house next door and sees the “perfect” family – society leading mother, uber successful father, three popular kids.The Vaughn family does look perfect, but behind the screen is a father in a political role obsessed with appearances and control, a mother who lives for society life (and her tennis instructor), an older brother who has been all but cut off for not falling in line with his career, and a younger brother who figured out how to suck up to his father. That leaves Lara, queen of the popular girls, utterly miserable. She's expected to go to college, get her Mrs. degree, and land a ladder climbing husband. Lara dreamed of a modeling career.As Daphne joins the partying Vaughn siblings, its clear everything is not merry and well. Daphne has been able to see images of the future when she touches others. Her senses are working overtime with the Vaughns and her mother's too slick new boyfriend. Daphne sees enough to know dark days are coming and someone won't survive but she doesn't know who, and she has no one to talk to about it.The central characters are between 15 and 25 years old, and is classified as a Young Adult novel, but this is really a story for suspense readers of any age. The struggles the kids face are universal – the grass is always greener … until you climb the fence and realize its been spray painted.In all genres, there is a spectrum from light to heavy, for suspense, we're going to use nail biters. FOREWARNED is at the lighter end and I give it two nail biters. The tension is high enough to keep the pages rapidly turning.The setting back in 1976 does give a flashback of Americana and the prospective of an upper class. For children of the 50s, 60s, and 70s, its filled with little “I remember that” treats. I loved Philips “product placement” naming brands and foods that were part of my childhood including Bottle Caps, wax candy bottles, Necco Wafers, and Bubble Yum. For children of the 80s and on, it paints a picture of American society and the gains women have made in divorce, education, and careers.The logic in this one stands up well. It is a straightforward story with Daphne and Lara being true to their characters. I personally would have like to see the paranormal be more of a story element. Daphne's...

Langhorne Slim made his bones as an acoustic singer-songwriter, but on his new album The Dreamin' Kind he teams up with Greta Van Fleet's Sam Kiszka and Danny Wagner to make a bona fide Americana rock & roll album. We go deep into how the Nashville troubadour bonded with the rock stars, and also ask Slim about what drove him to get sober. It's a fascinating interview with an artist who isn't afraid to decare, “We're living in f-cked up times.” We also preview the country albums we're excited to hear in 2026 and share what we're listening to this week in our Hear Now segment.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz offers a focused, data-driven breakdown of Zach Bryan's introspective album track “Plastic Cigarette” from his new project With Heaven On Top, released January 9–10, 2026, via Warner Records / Belting Bronco Records.Born 1996 in Oologah, Oklahoma, Zach Bryan rose from raw, self-uploaded songs during his 7–8 years in the U.S. Navy (honorable discharge 2021) to major-label success with American Heartbreak (2022, No. 1 Top Country Albums), the self-titled Zach Bryan (2023), and a Grammy win for “I Remember Everything” (with Kacey Musgraves). His signature style—introspective, emotionally raw Americana, folk, outlaw country—prioritizes authenticity over polish.“Plastic Cigarette” (track 15) debuted live in Dublin, Ireland (summer 2025) and quickly became a fan favorite. The understated, reflective song explores emotional longing, regret, artificial coping mechanisms, and the metaphor of a “plastic cigarette” as a substitute for genuine connection. Critics praise its use of space, warmth, minimalism, and atmospheric restraint over hook-driven structure (noted by Pitchfork, Stereogum, Holler.country, StayFreeRadioIP).As a non-lead single, it lacks immediate chart entries (no Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, or UK Singles peaks as of January 13, 2026), but benefits from album-wide streaming surges, fan playlist placement (~1.7K saves on one reported list), strong Reddit/social engagement, and organic discovery. No significant radio push or media syncs yet.Bryan reinforces his unfiltered ethos with a full acoustic version of With Heaven On Top—recorded solo, one-take per song, no overdubs—dropping just three days post-album to preempt overproduction critiques. The project was recorded across three Oklahoma houses in winter, emphasizing live takes, minimal polish, emotional immediacy, and collaboration with close friends as a return to spiritual, less commercial roots.Analytic Dreamz examines how “Plastic Cigarette” aligns with Bryan's pattern: slow-burn traction for non-singles, growth via live teases, fan-driven long-tail streaming, and tour amplification. The upcoming With Heaven On Tour (March–October 2026) hits stadiums across the U.S. (Raymond James, Bank of America, Gillette, Empower Field, multiple nights at Tottenham Hotspur), UK (Anfield), Ireland, and Europe (Spain, Germany, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands), setting the stage for sustained catalog and album momentum.Join Analytic Dreamz for this no-fluff analysis of a deeply resonant, authenticity-first track poised for organic growth in 2026.

A conversation with American Grammy Award nominated blues, soul and Americana singer, songwriter and author - Janiva Magness.
Our guest this week hails from Tobias, Nebraska, a town of about 100 people. Evan Bartels is a singer-songwriter who with his 2017 debut, 'The Devil, God & Me,' burst onto the national scene. More recently, Bartels has expanded his audience with the release of his EP, 'To Make You Cry,' recorded after relocating to Nashville and reflecting on a period of personal upheaval and renewal. Bartels has toured with American Aquarium, The White Buffalo, and John Moreland; he records for MCA/Universal; and he's performed at Mile of Music, AmericanaFest, and the C2C Festival. 'No Depression' calls him "a haunting new presence in Americana," while Americana Highways praises his "unvarnished, soul-bearing songwriting." 'Glide Magazine' notes his "ability to turn bruised experience into stark, resonant beauty." I caught up with Evan Bartels a few months ago for The Working Songwriter to hear about his musical journey so far.
In this episode of the Safe Travels Podcast, I'm joined by Bill Parker, Chief of Resources and Park Historian at Petrified Forest National Park, for a wide-ranging conversation that explores the historical and logistical forces that have shaped one of America's most iconic desert landscapes.Bill takes us beyond the park's famous petrified wood and into the human stories tied to Route 66, early automobile tourism, and the rise of roadside Americana in northern Arizona. We dive into how Holbrook, Arizona helped inspire Pixar's Radiator Springs, the significance of the historic REO Mountaineer, and why Petrified Forest remains one of the few national parks where Route 66 still runs directly through protected land.As Chief of Resources, Bill also explains the real-world challenges of preservation—from decades of petrified wood theft to the long-term impacts of highways, railroads, and modern transportation corridors on fragile cultural and natural resources. This episode offers a rare look at how infrastructure, tourism, and conservation intersect inside the National Park Service.Bill is an institution at Petrified Forest National Park, I'm grateful that he joined the podcast! ______________Follow us on social!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/safetravelspodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@safetravelspodYouTube: youtube.com/@safetravelspodSafetravelspod.com

Brad and I had a great conversation about songwriting and the production of the Barr Brothers' new album Let it Hiss. Brad shared how a minimalist approach, including a 4-string guitar, helped guide the songwriting and production of the new record. Brad even demonstrated his polyester thread trick on the guitar.

Hello Boys and Girls,Joining me today on the Podcast, we're taking a detour off the main highway and into the wonderfully odd, clever, and cinematic world of filmmaker John Putch. You know him from his long directing career, his indie gems like the Route 30 trilogy, and his decades of work in film and television — but today we're zeroing in on something a little different: his hilarious, low‑budget‑on-purpose, high‑charm motorcycle videos on YouTube. These shorts blend road‑trip Americana, deadpan humor, and the kind of creative freedom only a rider with a camera and a mischievous streak can pull off. We'll talk about the bikes, the destinations, the characters, the comedy, and the craft behind these deceptively simple moto films. So grab your helmet, settle in, and let's roll into the world of PutchFilms.

What happens when a classically trained cellist becomes an Americana soul-seeker and an award-winning director? In this episode, we sit down with Janie Price, the creative force known as BIRD, to explore a career that defies categorization. From her early days picking up the cello at age six to her recent acclaim from legends like Johnny Marr and Roy Orbison Jr., BIRD's journey is one of relentless creative curiosity. We go behind the scenes of her stunning new single, "The Film," a track that began in a rented room in Italy during the 2020 lockdown and traveled all the way to Nashville to be finished by Americana's finest musicians. The 5-Year Song: Why "The Film" needed half a decade to age like a fine wine before it was ready for the world. Music as DNA: Growing up with the cello and how a classical foundation paved the way for pop hits and indie anthems. The Director's Chair: The transition from songwriting to filmmaking, including her award-winning short Wider Than The Sky and her upcoming Roy Orbison documentary. The Nashville Connection: Collaborating with Jay DeMarcus (Rascal Flatts) and Ilya Toshinsky to find the perfect "Strange as Folk" sound. Global Empathy: How living between London and Tuscany shapes her perspective as a storyteller. Whether you're a fan of cinematic folk, a filmmaker in the making, or just love a deep dive into the creative process, this conversation with BIRD is a masterclass in staying true to your artistic vision. __ Love the show?

No primeiro “Estadão Analisa” do ano Carlos Andreazza comenta sobre a captura do presidente da Venezuela, o ditador Nicolás Maduro, e a esposa, Cilia Flores, na madrugada do sábado, 3 de janeiro, pelos Estados Unidos numa ação militar jamais vista no continente americano. A Venezuela informou que os bombardeios atingiram também a população civil. Ao menos quatro localidades venezuelanas teriam sido atacadas por militares americanos: além da capital Caracas, foram alvejadas La Guaira, Miranda e Aragua. No dia anterior, Maduro tinha afirmado estar pronto para negociar com os Estados Unidos sobre combate a narcotráfico. Trump recrudescia cada vez mais o cerco à Venezuela nos dias anteriores ao ataque. A Casa Branca havia aplicado sanções a empresas e frotas ligadas ao setor petrolífero do país sulaemericano. E o governo americano vinha destruindo barcos supostamente ligados ao narcotráfico no Caribe e em território venezuelano. A operação para prender Maduro foi deflagrada na madrugada de sábado.

Today we're putting The Tonearm's needle on drummer Phil Haynes.Since moving to New York from Oregon in 1983, Phil's played on scores of recordings with artists like Anthony Braxton and David Liebman. Phil has joined me once already, in March 2024, to discuss his memoir, Chasing the Masters: First Takes of a Modernist Drumming Artist.Phil's with me today to discuss his band Free Country, which takes American roots music and runs it through their particular jazz lens, using cello, guitar, bass, and drums to create something called "jazz-grass."Their new album Liberty Now! did not set out to be political. Phil planned for the group to record original compositions, a departure from their previous work. But then the last US Presidential election happened. And then the band got word of the passing of their trumpeter, Herb Robertson, as they walked into the studio. The music and the plan changed.

The Americana band join us to talk about their first-ever holiday album, OCMS Xmas.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Who “owns” Christmas? When Christians tell non-Christians that they need to “remember the reason for the season,” or accuse them of engaging in a “war on Christmas,” do they have a right to do so? Is Christmas “theirs” just because it originated as a Christian religious holiday? In this episode, Dan argues that American Christians made Christmas a mainstream part of American culture, a dimension of general Americana, and that as a result they no longer have a claim on the holiday or the right to dictate to others how it should be observed (or not).
