This episode is a powerful and honest conversation that will resonate with songwriters, local musicians, and aspiring artists navigating the modern music industry. MILLICENT shares her songwriting journey, beginning with being thrown into the deep end of the music business at a young age. Busking in busy city centres under the guidance of her Dad shaped her resilience as a working musician, but also created intense pressure to succeed. She opens up about being scouted for The Voice UK, reflecting on the experience with honesty, humility, and hindsight. While the show offered exposure, MILLICENT discusses the realities of talent shows, life after The Voice, and why they aren't always what they appear to be for young, naïve artists. A deeply moving part of this episode focuses on losing her father and the emotional weight of trying to do him proud while continuing her music career. We also discuss the pressure of staying relevant on social media, a challenge many independent artists and singer songwriters face today, alongside conversations about her new EP, creative growth, and whether she would ever consider reapplying for The Voice UK to prove the judges wrong. Embedded in the Preston local music scene, MILLICENT is a charming, grounded, and inspiring guest. This episode offers real insight into grassroots music, the mental and emotional side of being a musician, and the resilience required to keep creating. A must-watch for anyone passionate about local music, songwriting, and authentic artist stories.

Bluegrass-folk trio Damn Tall Buildings released their latest album The Universe Is Hungry this fall. We sit down with Avery Ballotta to talk about growing up in Montana, early musical influences, and how a love for music—and the fiddle—started at a young age. We dive deep into the inspiration behind the album, recording process, and the band's commitment to staying truly independent—self-producing, self-managing, and even running their own music school in Brooklyn.Avery shares stories from studying at Berklee College of Music, meeting bandmates Max Capistran and Sasha Dubyk, and how the group's journey began with busking on the streets of Boston before evolving into a decade-long partnership rooted in friendship, craftsmanship, and creative freedom. He also talks about touring with the U.S. State Department, performing bluegrass during cultural exchanges in Ethiopia and Saudi Arabia, and reimagining Roy Orbison's “Blue Bayou” through a bluegrass lens. Plus, we discuss the band's one-microphone live setup, how they decide vocal leads without a frontman, favorite songs to perform on stage, unforgettable moments from 2025, and what fans can expect from Damn Tall Buildings in 2026.Jonathan's Drinking: McKenzie Straight Bourbon Whiskey

"Many music outlets noticed there was no traditional Summer Song this year. No poppy dance tune that rose to the top of the charts. The Billboard Summer Song chart claimed a number one but it was a down tempo ballad. We will explore what happened and why."
"Many countries around the world take time each year to poll their citizens about their favorite songs. It usually happens around Christmas and a major media outlet plays the songs. We will tell you about some of the biggest ones and try to figure out why we don't do that here in America."

This is the story of music performed on the streets, in subways, in parks, in schoolyards, on the back of flatbed trucks, and beyond, from the 1920s to the present day. Drawing on years of interviews and eyewitness accounts, Down On The Corner (Jawbone Press, 2025) introduces readers to a wide range of locations and a myriad of musical genres, from folk to rock'n'roll, the blues to bluegrass, doo-wop to indie rock. Some of the performers he features--Lucinda Williams, Billy Bragg, The Violent Femmes--went on to become international stars; others settled into the curbs, sidewalks, and Tube stations as their workplace for the duration of their careers. Anyone who has lived in or travelled through a city will have encountered street musicians of one kind or another. For the first time, veteran journalist and music-industry publicist Cary Baker tells the complete history of these musicians and the music they play, from tin cups and toonies to QR codes and PayPal. Born on Chicago's South Side, Cary Baker began his writing career at sixteen with an on-spec feature about Chicago street singer Blind Arvella Gray for the Chicago Reader. His return to writing follows a forty-two-year hiatus during which time he directed publicity for six record labels (including Capitol and IRS) and two of his own companies, working with acclaimed artists such as R.E.M., Bonnie Raitt, The Smithereens, James McMurtry, The Mavericks, Bobby Rush, Willie Nile, and more. Prior to his PR years, Baker wrote for the Chicago Reader, Creem, Trouser Press, Bomp!, Goldmine, Billboard, Mix, Illinois Entertainer, and Record magazine. He has also written liner notes for historical reissues from Universal, Capitol/EMI, Numero Group, and Omnivore. He has been a voting member of the Recording Academy since 1979. He lives in Southern California. Cary Baker's website.

What happens when the raw energy of Black Flag collides with the timeless spirit of Bill Monroe? That's exactly the question Water Tower has been answering since 2005. Founded in Portland and now thriving in Los Angeles, the band has built a reputation for their fearless DIY approach and genre-bending sound that seamlessly blends bluegrass, old-time, and punk rock. In this episode, Kenny Feinstein (lead vocals, guitar, fiddle, mandolin) and Tommy Drinkard (banjo, vocals) share how their unique musical DNA fuses tradition with rebellion, the impact of their move from Portland to LA, and how the band has evolved through different lineups and stages. They also reflect on their collaborations with icons like Ron Reyes of Black Flag and Nick Hexum of 311, their journey from street performances to viral videos, and what it's like adapting their sound for radically different crowds—from the Vans Warped Tour to the Telluride Bluegrass Festival. Along the way, they reveal the passion and persistence that continue to drive Water Tower as they carve out their own path in modern music. If you love music that breaks rules while honoring its roots, this conversation is for you.
