This week, Start Here dives into the raw emotion and anthemic sound of Emo music. Alexis Ffrench is joined by Amy Fleisher Madden—founder of the legendary independent label Fiddler Records and author of NEGATIVES, a photographic archive of the Emo scene. Together, they explore the roots of Emo, from its underground beginnings to its explosion in the early 2000s, shaping a generation with its confessional lyrics and powerful melodies. Plus, they unpack Emo's surprising legacy in modern pop music—including how Taylor Swift's songwriting carries the emotional honesty and storytelling traditions of the genre. Whether you grew up with Emo or are just discovering it, this episode unpacks the emotion, energy, and influence of a genre that refuses to fade. Hosted on Acast.

At just 16 years old, Amy Fleisher Madden was contributing to her surrounding Florida punk rock scene like a wily veteran. Through booking and promoting national bands visiting the panhandle -- as well as her DIY zine Fiddler Jones -- she had introduced, connected and championed emo, pop-punk and hardcore bands from all over, eventually leading to the start of Fiddler Records, which gave us the first releasees from Dashboard Confessional and New Found Glory. Most recently, Amy is the author of a hefty book documenting a decade of the scene, titled "Negatives: A Photographic Archive of Emo (1996-2006)." Filled with stunning visuals, emphatic essays and more -- plus contributions from various photographers and musicians -- it's a must-have for anyone who spent time in this particular genre during these particular years, or since. Purchase "Negatives" via Amazon or wherever you get literature. More info can be found via @amyxmadden on Instagram, or at amy-madden.com.

I am psyched and honored to have the amazingly talented, ever so sweet (( see what I did there) and by far one of the coolest people I have ever talked with, Amy Fleisher-Madden on the show this week!Amy founded the independent record label, Fiddler Records, in Miami, Florida when she was 16 years old. In her mind, it was a logical progression from her local fanzine. Before she could even vote she discovered and broke bands like Dashboard Confessional, New Found Glory, and several other indie darlings you may or may not have heard of. She oversaw the creative direction and released over 25 records—which is what fueled her desire to properly learn Art Direction at the world-famous Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Upon completing her degree, Madden promptly moved to New York City to work as a Copywriter for an advertising agency. Having real-world experience with her own business helped her climb the ranks quickly, and she fast became a Creative Director working for what you could call ginormous brands.And after nearly a decade of that hustle and bustle, Madden decided to try her hand as a freelance creative whilst writing a book. This worked out well, and her first novel A Million Miles was released in 2014 to rave reviews and has become a fan favorite in the music scene.In 2022 Amy inked a deal with Chronicle Books to release NEGATIVES, a first-of-its-kind photographic archive of the emo music scene from 1996 to 2006, which will be released October, 24th!I loved this conversation so much and I hope you do as well!You can follow Amy at:https://www.amy-madden.comandhttps://www.instagram.com/AMYXMADDEN/There you can find links to her book signing events and ways to order 'Negatives' and 'A Million Miles' as well.You can follow me at:www.instagram.com/christiegeeYou can listen to the Spotify playlist I made inspired by 'Negatives' over at:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3Zi7mPNVib8WQrg122ftOQ?si=8cc3c7a6249848c8Thank you all so much for listening!

Amy Fleisher Madden is a guest on the Goldmine Podcast to talk about her book Negatives: A Photographic Archive of Emo (1996-2006).

Over the yaars she amassed many photographs and built a community connection in the scene; that all comes to fruition in the wonderful music history coffee book, Negatives, published this year by Chronicle Books.

On today's episode, I do a deep dive on Dashboard Confessional's second official full-length album "The Place You Have Come to Fear the Most". The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most is the second studio album recorded by the American emo band Dashboard Confessional, released on March 20, 2001, through Vagrant Records. Dashboard Confessional started as an acoustic side project for vocalist/guitarist Chris Carrabba while he was fronting Further Seems Forever. The project's first album The Swiss Army Romance was released in early 2000 through local independent label Fiddler Records. Using his connections within the punk scene, Carrabba was able to perform on a few tours. Though the audience wasn't used to acoustic instrumentation, Carrabba won the crowds over. Eventually demand for the album was exceeding the label's supply, which resulted in owner Amy Fleisher licensing the record to Drive-Thru Records. In October, Carrabba announced his departure from Further Seems Forever. LET'S CONNECT: Kyle's Instagram Kyle's Facebook Email: Kyledevlinfitness@gmail.com

When you have a musical career as long as Chris Carrabba, there's bound to be some reflection. I sat down with Chris face to face in New York City to discuss his musical life. This was largely unedited with many pauses and air left between question and answer. We dive into his upbringing, the Florida scene and Fiddler Records, the mid 2000s emo boom and what he wants most from his music. An absolutely beautiful soul that’s worthy of his own revival.
