"I think all black and brown people across all industries and fields know that we always have to work 10 times harder to be met in the middle."We're joined by rap rock pioneers Oxymorrons at Warped Tour. They get real about the challenges and pride of being Black artists in the alternative rock scene. The band also shares the creative freedom behind their latest independent album cycle._________________________________________________Live from Warped Tour, we sit down with the incomparable Oxymorrons. Hailing from Queens, NY, the band has consistently challenged the boundaries of the alternative scene by blending hip hop, rock, and punk into a sound that is uniquely their own. In this raw and honest conversation, they discuss the realities of being Black artists in a predominantly white space, touching on the concept that they must work ten times harder just to be met in the middle. They share powerful anecdotes about the pride they see in fans of color at shows, reinforcing why representation is more than just a buzzword. We also dive into the creative cycle behind their latest independent project, "create, destroy, rebuild, repeat," and what it means to make art without the pressures of commerce. This is a must-listen for anyone interested in the evolution of the pop punk and emo history and the artists pushing it forward.Chapters:00:00 Intro00:20 The Most Emo Song We're Listening To01:18 What Makes Oxymorrons Emo?Guest/Band Links:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC74jCWaxaSUoBg-JwlBRThAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/oxymorrons/?hl=enOfficial Website: https://oxymorrons.store/?srsltid=AfmBOopA7hsxp2ZkHkV9VwG0Ge19r6RPwgnKEkH79Qqas8DluzoECnQ9 JOIN THE CLUB!

From underground clubs to sold out arenas, every musician and band who "made it big" started small. The success story of one of Akron's most successful bands, The Black Keys, is no different. Together with bandmate Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney began recording in basements and touring in a 1994 Plymouth Grand Voyager. Ultimately, the band chose a similar minivan for the cover of their double-platinum album, El Camino, which rose to No. 2 on the Billboard album chart in 2011. It was a humorous nod to their humble beginnings and "band van" days.rnrnWhile the hustle and grind can seem like a rite of passage for rock bands, it doesn't necessarily need to be that way. John Panza at the Panza Foundation believes that even small amounts of assistance can have a profound effect on the artistic output and morale of independent artists. Established in 2014, the Panza Foundation aims to support local, independent musicians and bands--allowing those artists the freedom to pursue their craft with the best tools and opportunities possible.

Distribution partnerships can make or break an independent music career, but most artists don't understand what separates a good deal from a bad one. Jesse Flores, VP of Artist and Label Partnerships at Intercept Music and former Senior Director at Virgin Music Group, shares insider knowledge from over 20 years negotiating deals with major artists and independent labels. In this conversation, Jesse reveals the specific factors distributors evaluate when considering partnerships, the most common contract mistakes artists make (including the advance trap that costs artists future revenue), and what actually moves the needle for independent artists in 2025. He explains why having a team and release plan matters more than just great music, how to optimize your streaming profiles to attract partnerships, and why listening to your distribution partner's advice is the most overlooked strategy for success. Whether you're self-distributing and considering a partnership or already working with a distributor, Jesse's insights on deal structures, streaming economics, and strategic planning will help you make smarter business decisions. Topics covered: What distributors actually evaluate beyond your music The advance mistake that costs artists future revenue Distribution deal vs. label deal: Critical differences Which contract terms you can negotiate (and which you can't) Why releasing too quickly without a plan hurts your career How to optimize streaming profiles to attract partnerships Marketing tactics that actually work in 2025 (hint: not just playlists) International distribution strategy: Regional rollout vs. global release What artists consistently underinvest in that impacts partnership success The power shift between artists and labels in the streaming era Support the Unstarving Musician The Unstarving Musician exists solely through the generosity of its listeners, readers, and viewers.

From writing diss tracks in high school to racking up over 150 million streams on Spotify, Chri$tian Gate$ has carved out a lane of his own in the music world—powered by authenticity and a bit of bravado. On this episode of Bringin' it Backwards, Adam and Tera Lisicky take you backstage with Chri$tian as he shares how a childhood surrounded by music transformed into a songwriting obsession, and why building drama in school actually helped get his music heard. Chri$tian gets real about creating viral moments on TikTok, the keys to turning fleeting attention into loyal fans, and the relentless hustle behind breakthrough hits like “Numb” and his remix of “Overwhelmed.” He opens up about navigating the business side of things—including the tough lessons learned from early label deals—and what it means to own your artistry as an independent musician. Listen in for the story behind his upcoming debut album “No Strings Attached,” why he's always chasing growth, and the advice he'd give anyone who wants to make it in music: use YouTube, surround yourself with people who push you, and make music that means something to you first.

From viral TikTok moments at Coachella to a billboard stunt that had the internet talking, IZZA's been turning heads with her creative, bold approach to pop music—and storytelling. In this episode of Bringin' it Backwards, Adam Lisicky sits down with Los Angeles-born IZZA as she shares her journey from growing up in Encino surrounded by music-loving parents, to diving into songwriting at age thirteen and studying music business at USC. IZZA opens up about the challenges of finding her feet as an independent artist, from teaching herself music production so she could make her own demos, to navigating a male-dominated studio world and creating her signature sound. You'll get the behind-the-scenes stories on her Coachella guerrilla performances—where she brought her own MIDI keyboard and filmed herself playing “Gentlemen”—and the infamous revenge billboard she put up outside her ex's apartment to promote her single. IZZA also teases her forthcoming EP, “Because I'm Blonde,” and dishes on her recent “Sweat” single and video, which brings early 2010s pop vibes into the modern era. This episode's loaded with honest advice for aspiring artists about finding your own voice, building your own path, and staying true to your creative vision—even when the industry doesn't make it easy. Tune in to hear how IZZA is reshaping what it means to be a pop artist today, and don't forget to subscribe to Bringin' it Backwards for more inside stories from both legendary and rising artists.

In this episode, I shine the spotlight on The Unfaithful Servants through a conversation with singer, guitarist, and songwriter Dylan Stone From Vancouver Island's roots scene to a week immersed at IBMA in Chattanooga, the Servants have built a sound that slips past easy labels: tight three- and four-part harmonies, fearless arrangements, and a blend of bluegrass, folk, alt-country, and Americana that still feels unmistakably like one band.Dylan walks me through the Servants' arc: his partnership with mandolinist Jesse Cobb (a founding member of The Infamous Stringdusters), the jolt of energy when fiddle phenom Quinn Etheridge-Peddon joined, and the final puzzle piece in bassist Mark Johnson. We discuss the chemistry that's palpable onstage and how trust enables them to push beyond genre boundaries while always prioritizing the song.Their new album, Fallen Angel (out October 17), captures that identity. The band converted Quinn's basement into a studio. It brought in producer Adrian Dolan to keep it honest and alive, arrangements evolving in real time, performances that breathe, and the raw cohesion of a working band. We also explore their next steps: incorporating listening-led improvisation into writing (akin to jazz school rather than “endless solo”) and planning U.S. runs in 2026 from the Pacific Northwest down the coast and inland.The title track “Fallen Angel” is out now on all platforms.Band lineupDylan Stone — vocals, guitar, songwritingJesse Cobb — mandolin, instrumental writing, vocalsQuinn Etheridge-Peddon — fiddle, vocalsMark Johnson — bass, vocalsTo learn more about The Unfaithful Servants, visit their website.Music from the Episode:Fallen Angel (The Unfaithful Servants)Real to Touch (The Unfaithful Servants)Thank you for listening!

What does it really take to leave home, risk it all, and start over in the heart of country music? On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam and Tera Lisicky sit down with rising country artist Charly Reynolds for a candid look at her journey from growing up in Orlando, Florida—where Disney magic and country music mixed in unexpected ways—to hustling her way onto Nashville's famed Broadway stages. Charly opens up about the real struggles (and not-so-glamorous jobs at Chick-fil-A) that paved the road from high school release shows to playing the Wildhorse Saloon, founding her sound, and becoming an independent artist with a debut album, "Off the Record." She unpacks the self-doubt, hustle, and tenacity it takes to make a name for yourself in Nashville's daunting music scene, all while learning to tune out the noise and stay true to your vision. From her love of Disney princesses and early Taylor Swift inspiration to the lessons learned from four-hour sets on lower Broadway—and even a battle with vocal cord surgery—Charly's story is proof that the path to stardom is far from straight, but it's always authentic. Whether you're grinding your way through music city, searching for your artistic voice, or just love a story of raw perseverance, this episode is for you.

Welcome to this week's Blonde Intelligence, I am your host Ms. Roni, and I always seek to give you exquisite cranial repertoire. Economic instability threatens to reshape our entertainment landscape in ways few have considered. As food prices climb and agriculture struggles, reality TV shows highlighting luxury and excess feel increasingly disconnected from viewers' daily challenges. Data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis reveals that a mere 10% increase in food prices can slash entertainment spending by 5% – a statistic with profound implications for networks, producers, and talent.The most fascinating transformation is happening in viewer preferences. While lavish reality formats struggle during hardships, content focused on practical skills and budget-friendly solutions is thriving. YouTube channels featuring Dollar Tree Dinners, tiny house construction, and off-grid living provide valuable survival strategies rather than escapism. This cultural shift represents more than temporary viewing habits; it signals a fundamental reevaluation of what we value in entertainment during challenging times.For those working in entertainment or pursuing creative careers, adaptation is essential. Trade skills like plumbing, electrical work, and HVAC provide stability when traditional employment wavers. Healthcare positions remain consistently in demand despite economic fluctuations. Women entrepreneurs can access SBA grants and loan programs to build sustainable businesses. The message is clear – diversification and practical skills are crucial safeguards against economic uncertainty. As computer chip shortages potentially threaten technology-dependent aspects of entertainment, particularly for independent artists, preparing alternative pathways becomes increasingly important. The entertainment industry must recognize that as audiences' economic realities evolve, so too must the content created to engage them. Subscribe to hear more insights on navigating these changing landscapes and share your thoughts on how economic changes have affected your entertainment choices.Donate to the channel: $RoniR1#BlondeIntelligence #EntertainmentEvolution #EconomicReality #BudgetConscious #SurvivalSkills #RealityTVShift #ThriveNotSurvive #PracticalEntertainment #WomenEntrepreneurs #SBAGrants #DiversifyYourSkills #CrisisCreativity #IndependentArtists #FutureOfEntertainment #SmartSpending #CulturalShiftSupport the show

Spotify is using weird rules to fine and de-platform independent artists from its service — are these honest mistakes or is something more nefarious going on? Last week, Andrew's band, One Hundred Thousand, got a notice from its distributor that one song from its 2021 album was flagged for “bot activity” and that the entire album was therefore being removed from Spotify, and all other digital streaming services as a penalty. No one at Spotify appears to be concerned enough to respond to our requests for help and there is no apparent appeals process for artists who say they had nothing to do with the alleged bots. OHT is not alone. A number of independent artists are complaining that the world's largest digital streaming music platform is throttling them for “bot activity” on their catalogs, removing their music and charging them bogus penalties. Reddit is filling up with threads on the subject, and Spotify's silence is only fueling belief that this is part of the company's strategy to gradually replace independent music with A.I.-generated slop to reduce royalty payouts and bolster its profits. Please share your thoughts with us via Instagram @AtFirstListenPodcast. Subscribe so you don't miss an episode of At First Listen!

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I reconnect with my old Belmont University neighbor and longtime friend, Jeremy Casella. Jeremy and I first met on the third floor of Pembroke Hall, and after nearly 30 years, it was a joy to sit down and trace the threads of music, friendship, and life that still connect us today.Jeremy shares stories from his early days at Belmont, discovering artists like Béla Fleck and Brooks Williams, and crossing paths with classmates like Brad Paisley, while reflecting on how those formative years in Nashville shaped his career as a songwriter and performer. We talk about the folk scene of the early '90s, the influence of Phil Keaggy (who has since become a close friend and collaborator), and the ways great music can inspire new creativity rather than imitation.Our conversation also dives deep into the balance of being both a musician and a family man, and how perspective shifts as you approach 50. Jeremy opens up about what it means to leave a legacy through music, including his upcoming Christmas project, and how producing other artists has become an equally rewarding part of his creative journey.Along the way, we touch on coffee rituals, songwriting discipline, the craft of production, and the inspiration of producers like Daniel Lanois. This is a rich, heartfelt conversation with a friend who embodies both authenticity and artistry.Music from the Episode:Autumn in Kingston Springs (Jeremy Casella)Beauty Leads the Way (Jeremy Casella)Love That Will Not Let Me Go (Jeremy Casella featuring The Blind Boys of Alabama)On the Evening Train (Jeremy Casella)To learn more about Jeremy, visit his website.

​In the case of Jane Doe v. Sean Combs et al., the defendants have submitted a memorandum opposing the plaintiff's motion to proceed anonymously. They argue that the plaintiff has not sufficiently demonstrated the need for anonymity, as required by the factors established in Sealed Plaintiff v. Sealed Defendant. The defendants contend that the plaintiff's claims, while sensitive, do not involve matters that typically warrant anonymity, such as challenging governmental actions or involving minors.They also assert that there is no substantial risk of physical retaliation or mental harm to the plaintiff if her identity is disclosed. Furthermore, they highlight that the plaintiff's identity has not been kept confidential, pointing to prior public disclosures related to the case. The defendants emphasize that allowing the plaintiff to remain anonymous would prejudice their ability to defend themselves, as it hampers the investigation and gathering of evidence. They also argue that the public has a legitimate interest in open judicial proceedings, which includes knowing the identities of the parties involved. In conclusion, the defendants request that the court deny the plaintiff's motion for anonymity, asserting that the balance of factors weighs against permitting her to proceed under a pseudonym.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.630375.54.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

This episode delves into the intricate dynamics of transitioning from independent artist management to operating within the confines of a larger agency, elucidating how such a shift can diminish one's initial passion for the craft. We explore the journey of an artist who, while initially motivated by a desire to foster and promote musical talent, found that the structural limitations of a corporate environment stifled creativity and personal connection. The discussion further emphasizes the paramount importance of understanding the business aspects of the music industry, positing that knowledge in this realm is essential for artists to safeguard their interests and navigate the complexities of their careers. We advocate for musicians to cultivate their unique identities, rather than merely being perceived through the lens of their collaborations with established artists. This episode serves as a compelling reminder that while technical skills are crucial, the necessity of strategic self-promotion and market understanding cannot be overstated in the pursuit of artistic success.Takeaways: The transition from managing artists independently to working within a larger agency can significantly alter one's passion for the music industry.
