Podcasts about indie music

Steven and Ian open with a conversation about a memorable Halloween from 10 years ago (0:56). Then they do a Sportscast on the World Series (5:59), and Steven's belief that he's spiritually Canadian. From there, they pivot to the gossipy reception to Lily Allen's new album, and her legacy as a blog-friendly indie-pop phenom from the 2000s (12:25).They also talk about a list of notable Halloween songs that aren't actually about Halloween (19:41) and the prospect for musician biopics after the relative box-office failure of the Bruce Springsteen movie.(29:01). After a quick check-in on the Fantasy Album Draft (42:53), they do a "yay or nay" on whether Feels is Animal Collective's best album (46:36).In Recommendation Corner, Ian talks about Berlin ambient artist Ben Bondy and Steven goes with Chicago indie legend Sam Prekop (50:44).New episodes of Indiecast drop every Friday.

"PELICAN PILL" TITLED TRACK NEW SINGLE BY PELICAN PILL ROCK RAYMOND PRODUCTIONS © Copyright rockraymondproductions.com All Rights Reserved. Pelican Pill is a sonic pilgrimage—where classic rock's spiritual backbone meets the raw pulse of modern rebellion. Born from the ashes of forgotten dreams and the wings of restless visionaries, the band crafts anthems that soar, sting, and heal. Their debut single, “Feather and Flame,” channels the urgency of Kansas with a leaner, punchier frame—tight harmonies, thunderous riffs, and lyrics that wrestle with redemption, flight, and fire. It's not nostalgia—it's resurrection. Fronted by a voice that sounds like it's lived a thousand lifetimes and backed by a rhythm section that hits like prophecy, Pelican Pill doesn't just play music—they deliver medicine for the soul. Each track is a dose of truth wrapped in melody, a pill for the dreamers, the wanderers, and the ones who refuse to fall quietly. Whether on stage or in the studio, Pelican Pill is a band that believes in the power of myth, melody, and motion. Their sound is cinematic, their message timeless, and their journey just beginning. lyrics:   Woke up in the shadow of a silver tide  Dreams like anchors, pulling from the other side  Wings clipped by the weight of the world I knew  But the sky keeps calling, breaking through    (Pre-Chorus)  I've been lost in the echo of a long goodbye  Now I'm chasing the fire in a pelican's cry    (Chorus)  Feather and flame, I rise again  Burning the past like a medicine  Truth in the wind, soul on the run  Pelican Pill, I'm not done    (Verse 2)  Ghosts of glory whisper through the canyon walls  Every fall's a lesson, every rise recalls  I've seen the light bend, I've felt the sting  But I won't trade flight for anything    (Pre-Chorus)  I've been bound by the silence of a stormy sky  Now I'm riding the thunder, wings held high    (Chorus)  Feather and flame, I rise again  Burning the past like a medicine  Truth in the wind, soul on the run  Pelican Pill, I'm not done    (Bridge)  Let the waves crash, let the stars spin  I'll find my way where the edge begins  No more waiting, no more chains  I'm the echo that remains    (Final Chorus)  Feather and flame, I rise again  Burning the past like a medicine  Truth in the wind, soul on the run  Pelican Pill, I've just begun    Support us on PayPal!

Phaeton (October 24th) of our third album "Neurogenesis,"Guest appearance from former Dream Theater keyboardist Derek Sherinian (on the single "Isochron"). Phaeton formed in 2017 in the Rocky Mountain resort town of Kimberley, British Columbia. Our drummer Colin had worked with Kevin and Dan and I in separate earlier metal bands and he gathered us all together to create something exciting and unique. Which ended up being all-instrumental progressive metal, akin to Animals As Leaders or Scale The Summit or Intervals, although we draw further influence from artists such as Rush, Mastodon, Gojira, Between the Buried and Me, Devin Townsend, and Dream Theater. We're somewhat insular and work in-house, with Kevin being our recording engineer and producer - our recorded output features crystalline sharpness, but we're a much heavier live act in person. We're currently promoting the imminent release (October 24th) of our third album "Neurogenesis," which features a guest appearance from former Dream Theater keyboardist Derek Sherinian (on the single "Isochron"). Phaeton have shared the stage with such metal notables as Anciients, Bison, and Beyond Creation, and we make friends wherever we go. Phaeton are looking forward to further touring both across Canada and internationally. Click Here to Subscribe to Pipeman in the Pit for PERKS, BONUS Content & FREE GIVEWAYS!  Pipeman in the Pit is a music, festival, and interview segment of The Adventures of Pipeman Radio Show (#pipemanradio) and from The King of All Festivals while on The Pipeman Radio Tour. Pipeman in the Pit features all kinds of music and interviews with bands & music artists especially in the genres of Heavy Metal, Rock, Hard Rock, Classic Rock, Punk Rock, Goth, Industrial, Alternative, Thrash Metal & Indie Music.

Support the Show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1172687/supportWelcome to this week's Blonde Intelligence, I am you host Ms. Roni, and I always seek to give you exquisite cranial repertoire. One fan showed up at five o'clock on a Thursday for Indie Artist, Kwe the Artist—and that was enough to spark one of the most meaningful shows of the tour. We dive into the real mechanics of indie growth, where honesty beats hype and small rooms become training grounds for skill, trust, and repeatable momentum. The story starts with a free city-to-city run and a candid recap that didn't hide the turnout. That transparency pulled more listeners into the music and turned an awkward moment into organic discovery.We break down why thin crowds can be a gift. With fewer distractions, you can test arrangements, tighten transitions, and read the room with precision. You hear the breath between lines, feel the groove shift, and adjust on the fly. Those one-to-one moments create fans who buy albums twice, tell friends, and come back. We contrast artists who deliver regardless of headcount with those who walk when the numbers aren't “big enough,” and how that choice echoes in ticket sales, reputation, and word of mouth. The takeaway is clear: connection compounds.You'll also hear practical strategies for designing shows that convert—framing every set with a clean call to action, capturing contacts, gifting surprise value, and measuring the right signals beyond vanity metrics. We talk timing, venue friction, and the myth of the “magic number” that supposedly unlocks opportunity. Instead, we focus on stacking small wins: ten merch buys, ten saves, ten shares. Those are signs of demand, and they add up fast when you keep your promise to the people who show.If you're building from the ground up, this is a reminder to play the room you have and serve the moment you're in. Subscribe, share this with an indie artist who needs the nudge, and leave a review with your own “tiny crowd, big impact” story—we'll shout out our favorites next week.

What if the difference between “out now” and “taking off” was simply three weeks of planning and the right people answering your email? We sit with Jesse Flores, VP of Artists and Label Partnerships at Intercept Music, to map the modern indie playbook—how to keep your masters, design smarter releases, and turn attention into a durable career.Jesse takes us from his mixtape‑selling college days to national roles at EMI, then into the services world where distribution is only half the story. We talk through the shift from record stores to streaming, why singles now anchor most strategies, and how playlisting and editorial pitching actually work on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. He's candid about who is ready for a services deal and who should start DIY, what signals tell him an artist can scale, and why proactive, responsive support is the secret advantage in a crowded market.We also get into AI's role—useful for bios, press materials, and workflow, risky when it fabricates artists or fuels fraud—and the surge of cross‑genre collaboration as hip‑hop blends with Latin, Afrobeats, and even country. Jesse shares his “Fantastic Five” team framework: a strong distributor, manager, publicist, entertainment lawyer, and digital strategist. Add focused networking at Music Biz, ASCAP or BMI events, and industry weekends, and you're not just releasing music—you're building leverage. If you've been wondering when to drop, how to pitch, or what it takes to move from hobbyist to pro, this conversation lays out the steps with clarity and heart.Enjoyed the conversation?

It is a pleasure to welcome country music singer Adam Warner to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. Country music's breakout artist has learned not to take himself too seriously, and his music gives his audience permission to do the same. With standout releases like “4 Square Miles,” which reached #1 on The Country Network's Video Countdown, and “Semper Fi” featuring Trace Adkins, a tribute to active and former military that was named Independent Country Music Song of the Year, Warner has carved out a place of honor in the genre. His high-energy anthem “Welcome to the South,” even became a game-day staple at Tennessee Titans home games in Nissan Stadium.In 2022, Adam Warner released the acclaimed album What We're Known For, earning rave reviews from the industry. The 12-track project featured fan favorites such as “Catchin' Hell,” “Reason to Redneck,” “One Drunk,” “Split A Beer,” “Lost In A Country Song,” a powerful remake of the classic “Long Haired Country Boy,” and the title track “What We're Known For.” 2023 brought even more momentum, highlighted by the heartfelt re-release of “First Face”, a tribute to Warner's wife, Megan, and their first child, Rivers Paige. In 2024, Warner continued to deliver hits with a steady stream of new singles and milestone performances, including his debut appearances at both CMA Fest and the iconic Country Thunder festival in Twin Lakes, Wisconsin.2025 is already shaping up to be a milestone year for the Nashville authentic country music sensation, marked by the release of his most dynamic project yet. His 12-song album Where I'm Coming From, released in May, features streaming favorites like “The People”, a patriotic salute to everyday Americans, along with “The Farmer,” “Back When,” “Outlaws Baby,” and “Do Country” featuring Nate Kenyon. The project also highlights “Most of This Town” and three distinct versions of “Bridge I'd Love To Burn” – including the original, a club mix, and a mandolin mix featuring rising bluegrass phenom Wyatt Ellis. Having just lit up the stage at Summerfest, up next, fans can expect to see the Marine-turned-country sensation's music philosophy brought to life at The Hoofbeat Festival, the legendary Eddie's Attic in Decatur, GA, and at various clubs, venues, and festivals throughout the United States.   On this edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Adam Warner spoke about the lessons he learned from sharing the stage with Lee Brice, Rhonda Vincent, and Trace Atkins, performing at the Grand Ole Opry, and sharing the stories behind his most-streamed Spotify songs.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jake-s-take-with-jacob-elyachar--4112003/support.

Pianist, songwriter, and performer Jacob Jeffries the morning after he played Madison Square Garden with Vulfpeck, reflecting on the surreal thrill of performing in the legendary arena with his close friends, while also grounding the experience in the everyday reality of being a working musician. The conversation traces his journey from South Florida (where his childhood was shaped by Beatles records, summer theater programs like Lovewell, and the absence of a bar mitzvah he later regretted) to his early career with the Jacob Jeffries Band and formative studio experiences with Grammy-winning producer Sebastian Krys and guitarist-producer Dan Warner. He describes being taken under their wing, signed to Warner Chappell at 18, and even meeting Rick Rubin as a teenager—moments that felt like he was “six inches from Madison Square Garden,” only to discover it would take another 20 years of steady work to get there. Along the way, Jeffries talks about grief (losing both parents by his mid-20s), his bond with fellow Vulfpeck member Theo Katzman, the power of collaborative creativity, and the balance between sincerity and playfulness in his own music. He reflects on the intimacy of his new record You Got the Right Idea, the surreal humor of songs like This Is Not the Song I Wrote, and how he embodies a kind of singer, storyteller, and surrealist performer all at once. Jacob is on tour this month opening for the band Lawrence. www.third-story.com www.leosidran.substack.com www.wbgo.org/podcast/the-third-story

Hailing from the heart of Melbourne, Australia, these two share what it was like growing up in a musical family—complete with a mom who led choirs and once performed electronic music standing on her head!
