On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with Tropidelic drummer Rex Larkman to talk about the band's new album, First Light, and the musical evolution behind it. Rex joined the Cleveland group in 2018, bringing the intensity of his punk and metal background into Tropidelic's blend of reggae, rock, ska, funk, and hip-hop.We dig into Rex's growth as a drummer—from wanting to play everything to recognizing the beauty and difficulty of playing exactly what a song needs. He explains why pocket, restraint, and a strong connection with the bass player matter so much in rhythm-driven music, and why listeners often move more when the drummer leaves space.Rex also takes us inside the making of First Light. Ideas emerged at soundchecks and on the road before being developed with producer Craig Broadhead in Cleveland. Live performances, programmed beats, layered snares, keyboards, and studio experimentation all became part of an album in which every song was allowed to find its own sound.We talk about the danger of quantizing the life out of a drum performance and the importance of allowing music to breathe. Rex describes how Tropidelic transforms its studio recordings for the stage by changing tempos, rearranging sections, adding horn solos, and adjusting set lists from one night to the next.We also discuss Tropidelic's touring community, the band's Everwild festival, and the positive message running through the new music. For Rex, the goal is straightforward: work hard, connect with the audience, support the people around you, and give every room a high-energy show that still feels human.Key TakeawaysRex joined Tropidelic in 2018 after becoming part of Cleveland's local punk and independent music community.His early influences included classic rock, Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, punk, metal, ska, Sublime, Streetlight Manifesto, and Less Than Jake.Playing with Tropidelic taught Rex that restraint can be more challenging—and more musical—than filling every available space.Much of First Light began with short ideas created at soundchecks and developed later with producer Craig Broadhead.The album combines live drums, programmed elements, layered snare sounds, keyboards, effects, and production created in several locations.Rex believes precise editing can remove the natural movement from a performance; everything should feel in time without necessarily sitting perfectly on a grid.Tropidelic regularly reshapes its songs for the stage, changing tempos, shortening arrangements, adding solos, and responding to each audience.Music from the EpisodeSignals - TropidelicAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast about music, the people who make it, and the experiences that shape their creative lives.

I'm psyched to welcome Easy Honey to Roadcase for Part 3 of my interviews from Lollapalooza which took place in the heart of Chicago a few weekends ago. I sat down with the full band and it was really great to get to know this close-knit group of friends (and brothers)! Easy Honey is Selby Austin, Webster Austin, Darby McGlone and Charlie Holt, and these guys have been absolutely crushing it recently with their Surf Tour on the back of their latest EP, Plaid.Easy Honey's vibe is reflective of their easy-breezy rock vibe and they're as chill as you would expect. Originally from Eastern Tennessee with Selby and Darby forming an instant connection in college, they added the two remaining members and relocated to Charleston, SC — and hence their surf-rock and connection to community were officially solidified. Prolific writers, Easy Honey has a deep and unmistakable love for the music, and that authenticity translates to an inclusive and fun-loving onstage vibe which has drawn in fans as they continue to gain popularity.I'm excited to share this special episode with you!!  Don't forget to follow Roadcase and you can visit Roadcase on Instagram, @roadcasepod!! =======================================Chapters:00:00 - Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg03:31 - Introductions at Lolla and first-time festival memories04:36 - Crowd energy, opening the day, and the band's chill reputation05:43 - Day-one fans and the emotional rush of seeing the gates open07:17 - The Oahu skate park show and how it came together09:04 - Surfing, Charleston roots, and playing in Hawaii and California09:35 - Supporting the Runarounds and the band-meta connection11:14 - Meeting Jackson Browne and why he lived up to the hype13:16 - How Easy Honey started in college in Sewanee, Tennessee14:52 - The “stole Charlie” story and the real version of how the lineup formed15:37 - Why Sewanee's isolation pushed people toward music, drinking, and hanging out19:08 - Moving to Charleston and why the city fit the band's vibe21:41 - The Jimmy Buffett toilet story and a funny family connection23:43 - How the “Traffic Jam” performance idea was born from beach traffic25:52 - Why the band keeps ideas simple, repeatable, and authentic instead of forcing history to repeat26:58 - What Charlie listened to growing up and the metal influence at home27:53 - Carter Vail, tour friendships, and the social side of being on the road29:31 - Why the band released a 5-song EP instead of a full album30:38 - Recording in remote Marble, Colorado and building songs as a package31:41 - How the band's sound has evolved from total spontaneity to more intention and structure33:03 - Who writes lyrics, why writing can get harder, and staying honest in the room34:04 - Surf tour plans, more music, and a return to Chicago later this year34:56 - Episode Wrap-up with Host Josh Rosenberg=======================================For more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

In this episode, Charles sits down with TJ Horn, a Boston-area drummer who has played with several bands — most notably the critically acclaimed Walter Sickert and the Army of Broken Toys. Beyond his drumming career, TJ is a passionate live music fan who set a personal record in 2025 by attending 75 concerts in a single year. He's also known in certain Boston circles for his live readings of erotic fan fiction. It's a wide-ranging conversation about music, performance, and what it means to love live shows. TJ traces his passion for live music back to a 1994 Depeche Mode concert at the Blockbuster Pavilion in Glen Helen, California — a show his uncle brought him and his family to when he was just 12 years old. That night sparked a lifelong obsession. That same year, his uncle also took him to Metallica, Nine Inch Nails, and the legendary Lollapalooza '94 — where TJ saw the Smashing Pumpkins, Beastie Boys, L7, and a then-unknown Green Day, just weeks before they exploded in popularity. Over the years, TJ has accumulated remarkable concert stories: chatting with Fred Durst for 40 minutes at Ozzfest while watching Tool, seeing Porno for Pyros perform a surprise acoustic set on a walkway at Lollapalooza '95, and stumbling upon a tiny 40-person Touché Amoré show after standing in the snow for a wristband. His 75-show year in 2025 came about naturally — fueled by a wide network of friends with different musical tastes, a work schedule that freed up his evenings, and a simple philosophy of saying yes when a cheap ticket or a spare invite came along. On the music-making side, TJ is a self-taught drummer who got his start playing along to Green Day and the Ramones in his bedroom as a military kid who had just moved to Boston. He's gone on to play with bands spanning punk, hardcore, and art-rock, including The Martyrs and a rock opera project featuring Amy Winehouse's saxophonist and members of The Replacements. His longest creative relationship has been with Walter Sickert and the Army of Broken Toys — a theatrical "steam crunk" band known for elaborate costumes, steampunk conventions, annual RPM Challenge albums, and now an upcoming horror sci-fi film directed by Walter himself. TJ also speaks fondly of the erotic fan fiction readings that made him unexpectedly famous in Boston's burlesque and cosplay scene — a side gig that started with dramatic readings of bad dating app messages and turned into a crowd-favorite variety act.

689. We talk to Amanda Skenadore about her novel on the Carville Leprosy Colony, The Second Life of Mirielle West. Amanda Skenandore is a registered nurse turned historical fiction author whose medical background deeply shapes her storytelling. In her novel The Second Life of Mirielle West, she takes listeners into 1920s America to follow a Hollywood socialite whose life is upended when a diagnosis of leprosy forces her into exile at Carville, Louisiana — the nation's only leprosarium at the time. Blending rigorous medical history with emotional depth, the story explores one woman's fight against systemic isolation and social stigma as she seeks purpose, belonging, and redemption in the most unexpected place.  Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy.

This week in the Louisiana Anthology. Gaspar Cusachs. "Lafitte: The Louisiana Pirate and Patriot." Here in Barataria, amid the innumerable branches of bayous, passes, and inextricable cypress swamps, persons may lie concealed from the strictest scrutiny. In 1811, Lafitte fortified the eastern and western points of this island, and established a regular depot. Here the prizes were brought and sold to the inhabitants of the adjoining districts, who resorted to these places for the purpose of obtaining bargains in matters of trade and without being at all solicitous to conceal the object of their journey. No effective measures having been taken to expel the pirates they continued their depredations upon the Spanish commerce and sometimes ventured to attack vessels of other nations. They were generally regarded as pirates, but it is probable that most, if not all of them, were commissioned by the Carthagenian government. This week in Louisiana history. July 31 1976. U.S. Rep.

Charles is joined by longtime friend and concert enthusiast Andy to recap their 24/7 Live Music Challenge — an ambitious attempt to see 24 live music events in just seven days, inspired by "Concert Joe" Sarkis of New York, who famously attended 1,000 shows in a single year back in 1992. Based in the Chicago area, Charles and Andy plotted their week using ChatGPT to build efficient nightly itineraries, hitting 24 shows across 16 different clubs without ever buying tickets in advance. They quickly learned that averaging three and a half shows per night was brutal — three shows in one night put them behind schedule, while four was a struggle to pull off even once, let alone repeatedly. The conversation walks through each night in detail, from a jazz set at the historic Green Mill and a punk show at Subterranean to blues legends at Buddy Guy's Legends and Blue Chicago, a folk night at The Hideout, and a storytelling-meets-live-band show at Martyrs that reminded them both of NPR. Along the way they battled real tornado warnings that knocked out power at multiple venues, forcing last-minute audibles, and stumbled into unexpected magic — snagging the last two seats at nearly every stop, watching Buddy Guy hang out in his own club ahead of his 90th birthday, and catching an incredible impromptu bass solo from a musician neither of them had heard of before. By the end of the week, Charles and Andy had hit their goal of 24 shows for a total of just $313 in cover charges (well under the $1,000 budget Andy had braced his wife for), capped off by seeing Santana and the Doobie Brothers at a Tinley Park band shell. Standout moments included the high-energy punk band Squint and Kansas City act Season to Risk at The Liar's Club, while the sheer physical toll — late trains, torrential rain, and blown-out eardrums — made clear why neither of them plans to repeat the full challenge. Still, both agreed it was a rewarding way to break out of their musical comfort zones, discover new venues worth revisiting, and appreciate just how much dedication (and money) serious "concert chasers" like Concert Joe put into their passion. BANDS: Able Baker, Amyl and the Sniffers, Cherry Decay, Dog Caller, Dot, Grateful Dub, Greasy Gravy, Groove Witness, Jerry's Middle Finger, Public Opinion, Santana, Season to Risk, Squint, Tunnel, liverwhip, the Doobie Brothers, La Croix Mystique, Majesty. VENUES:  Andy's Jazz Club, Beat Kitchen, Blue Chicago, Buddy Guy's Legends, Cobra Lounge, Fitzgeralds, Garcia's, Jazz Showcase, Martyrs, Salt Shed, Shubas, Subterranean, The Empty Bottle, The Green Mill, The Hideout, The Hungry Brain, The Liar's Club, Tinley Park (band shell).

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Diane Coburn Bruning. The two talk about the origins of Diane Coburn Bruning's passion for dance, the founding and mission of the Chamber Dance Project, which pairs dancers with live musicians, and the unique challenges of sustaining a performing arts company. In this episode, we discuss: How a passion for both dance and live music inspired the founding of Chamber Dance Project, and its unique approach to performances with live musicians. What it was like to build a dance company in New York and later in Washington, D.C., including the challenges of financial sustainability and artist support. Diane Coburn Bruning recognized the need to create opportunities for dancers and choreographers during traditional company layoffs, leading to the company's founding in 2000. Why live music is essential to an authentic dance experience, and the importance of smaller, more intimate venues for both audiences and performers. What goes into commissioning new works and supporting emerging and established choreographers through the Chamber Dance Project. Why building a company is a marathon, not a sprint, and why patience and persistence are critical for growth in the arts. Diane Coburn Bruning, founder of Chamber Dance Project In 2000, choreographer Diane Coburn Bruning founded Chamber Dance Project, dancers & musicians in New York City guided by a conviction that dance should be performed with live music, that smaller venues afford a more intense experience for viewers and performers alike, and that sharing the creative process engages audiences on a deeper level.

She has also received support from Meet the Composer, the Harkness Foundation, New York State Council for the Arts, Heathcote Foundation, David Howard Foundation and The Carlisle Project. Diane has worked with Atlanta Ballet, Pacific Northwest Ballet, Pennsylvania Ballet, Boston Ballet, Juilliard Dance Ensemble, American Repertory Ballet, Milwaukee Ballet, Joffrey II, Nashville Ballet, Aspen Ballet, Ballet Chicago, Ballet Memphis, Daghdha Dance (Ireland), Minnesota Ballet, Chautauqua Ballet, Woolly Mammoth Theatre, and Studio Theatre, among others. Her popular Ramblin' Suite, her collaboration with the Red Clay Ramblers, was commissioned by Atlanta Ballet and performed by Milwaukee Ballet. She has worked on productions with Pittsburgh Opera, Glimmerglass Festival, and four with Washington National Opera at the Kennedy Center.

Sidonie de la Houssaye. “Alix de Morainville.”     But one day — God knows how it happened — a child of the village all at once entered the chamber where I was and knew me.     “Madame Alix!” he cried, took to his heels and went down the terrace pell-mell (quatre à quatre) to give the alarm. Ten minutes later Matthieu came at a full run and covered with sweat, to tell us that all the village was in commotion and that those people to whom I had always been so good were about to come and arrest me, to deliver me to the executioners. I ran to Joseph, beside myself with affright.     “Save me, Joseph! save me!”     “I will use all my efforts for that, Mme. la Viscomtesse.” At that moment Jerome appeared. He came to say that a representative of the people was at hand and that I was lost beyond a doubt.     “Not yet,” responded Joseph. “I have foreseen this and have prepared everything to save you, Mme. la Viscomtesse, if you will but let me make myself well understood.”     “Oh, all, all! Do thou understand, Joseph, I will do everything thou desirest.”     “Then,” he said, regarding me fixedly and halting at each word — “then it is necessary that you consent to take Joseph Carpentier for your spouse.”     I thought I had [been] misunderstood and drew back haughtily.     “My son!” cried mother Catharine.     “Oh, you see,” replied Joseph, “my mother herself accuses me, and you — you, madame, have no greater confidence in me. But that is nothing; I must save you at any price. We will go from here together; we will descend to the village; we will present ourselves at the mayoralty — ”     In spite of myself I made a gesture.     “Let me speak, madame,” he said. “We have not a moment to lose. Yes, we will present ourselves at the mayoralty, and there I will espouse you, not as Claudine Leroy, but as Alix de Morainville. Once my wife you have nothing to fear. Having become one of the people, the people will protect you. After the ceremony, madame, I will hand you the certificate of our marriage, and you will tear it up the moment we shall have touched the soil of England. Keep it precious till then; it is your only safeguard. Nothing prevents me from going to England to find employment, and necessarily my wife will go with me. Are you ready, madame?”     For my only response I put my hand in his; I was too deeply moved to speak. Mother Catharine threw both her arms about her son's neck and cried, “My noble child!” and we issued from the cottage guarded by Guillaume and his three other sons, armed to the teeth.     When the mayor heard the names and surnames of the wedding pair he turned to Joseph, saying:     “You are not lowering yourself, my boy.”     At the door of the mayoralty we found ourselves face to face with an immense crowd. I trembled violently and pressed against Joseph. He, never losing his presence of mind (sans perdre la carte), turned, saying:     “Allow me, my friends, to present to you my wife. The Viscomtesse de Morainville no longer exists; hurrah for the Citoyenne Carpentier.” And the hurrahs and cries of triumph were enough to deafen one. Those who the moment before were ready to tear me into pieces now wanted to carry me in triumph. Arrived at the house, Joseph handed me our act of marriage. This week in Louisiana history.

SlapperCast Episode 386: "Keeping the Seat Warm" Turbo is back on SlapperCast with an honest update from the long, strange road of knee-replacement recovery.

We also reflect on the drummers who have stepped in during his absence, the respect they've shown for Turbo's arrangements, and the almost wordless musical language the three of us have developed over the years.
