Dicky Barrett sang in the Mighty Mighty Bosstones for 39 years, and announced for the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show for 18 years. In 2022, his stance on COVID vaccines seemingly ended both careers. Nowadays he writes and sings in 90s punk supergroup The Defiant, alongside members of Smash Mouth, the Offspring, the Street Dogs, and the Briggs. He joins Hornpod to share stories about the earliest days and highest heights of U.S. ska, as well as his place in the world these days. Hornpod theme written by Matt Wixson. Performed this episode by Brunt of It. The Hornpod Ska Canon lives at hornpod.org

In this episode we speak with Reese Barragin who uncovers the seedy side of the music industry. It's a world in which impotent performers are actively held back from “selling out.” This is a very important episode for anyone considering a future as a pop musician in order to understand how the deck can be stacked against you.

In this episode of Ska Boom I speak to Matt Wixson, who is a singer, songwriter, musician, podcaster, and improviser from Ferndale, MI. We discuss the current state of American ska (what's the deal with Streetlight Manifesto and are they ska?) and have a lively intergenerational conversation– Gen X to Millennial -- about our different takes on what is and isn't American ska. Since 2005, Matt has been performing solo acoustic ska and punk under his own name, and electronic ska and reggae under the moniker Babylon Party Machine. Throughout 2007 he toured nationally and around the UK as keyboardist of the Connecticut-based ska-core band the Flaming Tsunamis. In 2010 he started the three-piece punk band Matt Wixson's Flying Circus, with whom he has released three EPs, a live album, and various singles. As a guest musician he has appeared on albums by the Suicide Machines, Big D and the Kids Table, J. Navarro and the Traitors, the Fad, Heavensbee, and more. He continues to write and perform music and comedy in the Detroit area.Matt helped to found Hornpub Ska City, which is a vibrant and active Facebook group with more than 11,000 members focused on all things ska and for the past year has co-hosted Hornpod: a Ska Podcast.

My first love is music, but I don't have enough skill at it to get by. The intro song, is my old band Exploded Toad, but honestly, all I did there was surround myself with incredibly talented people like Rob Bentley, Eric Walters, and Jeff Finazzo so they could carry my dead weight. My guest this week is an insanely talented musician who fairly recently began conquering improv comedy too. He's Matt Wixson. I first met him at a storytelling show, and told him afterwards that I wanted to be friends. He's just instantly likable. I was curious if maybe musicals had an impact on him growing up, which led to his talents and artistic endeavors. Matt also has a lot of music available online. It probably isn't all kid appropriate, but it's incredibly catchy! https://mattwixson.bandcamp.com/ (https://mattwixson.bandcamp.com/) If you'd like to hear more of my stuff, my simultaneously juvenile, but super adult conspiracy parody podcast The Truthcast is available wherever you found this podcast!
