We kick the episode off with a visit from our pal Karl Spaeth. Karl is a comedian who once thought I called him Ted. He was wrong, but now I'm going to call him Ted. We talk about Karl's upcoming comedy special being taped RIGHT HERE in Cincinnati on November 2nd and 3rd at MOTR Pub. He's even bringing along great local comedians like Ossia Dwyer and Blake Hammond. Karl and I dive into what we dislike about social media, while trying some of his favorite road snacks. I am glad to finally find another fan of Utz brand snacks - Karl got us hooked on the special dark pretzels today. Don't forget to come in and try Live More Smoothies which we're running a special on right now too! Someone bring me a blender!

"I love to sing pretty, but I also like to turn up the guitar." That's how Cincinnati singer/songwriter Sarah Asher described her sound during her performance for WCPO Lounge Acts. Asher's music blends her folk roots with 90s-influenced alternative rock, but is unique enough to avoid being lumped into either genre. "I've never really gotten along with genres really well," she said. "I'm a songwriter and I love melodies." Asher used the downtime from quarantine not only as an opportunity to write music, but also as an opportunity to collaborate. Asher traveled to Echo Mountain Recording in Ashville, NC to record her new album with studio musicians who would've normally been unavailable. "Since there were a lot of musicians that were grounded, we were able to get some people that would normally be touring," Asher explained. Asher would return to Ashville to shoot a music video for her song "Summer Never Came." Written in spring 2020, Asher described the song as "looking ahead to the summer and the uncertainty and thinking about summer never happening in a way." Asher performed "Summer Never Came" along with other songs from her new album, 'Echo Mountain Sessions,' for WCPO Lounge Acts. Sarah Asher's album 'Echo Mountain Sessions' will be available Thursday, Oct. 14 with a release show at MOTR Pub in Over-the-Rhine. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From 1991-1999, Dan McCabe booked local and national bands (and tended bar, and cleaned the washing machines) at the late, great Sudsy Malone's on Short Vine, fronting his own money to book the national acts. Decades later, he's still promoting great live music, as co-owner of MOTR Pub and The Woodward Theater in Over-the-Rhine. Dan shares some amazing memories from his Sudsy's days (Morphine, Jesus Lizard, Mercury Rev... and Reverend blood on the sidewalk), and talks about why indie venues are crucial to up-and-coming bands. MOTR and The Woodward, like many indie venues across the country, have been shuttered by COVID-19 and need our help. All of us can #SaveOurStages by taking action (writing congresspeople, donating to an indie venue emergency relief fund, etc.) at NIVAssoc.org.  (This episode also features special guest appearances from Rictile and Howard Cohen.) 

Cincinnati shoegaze band Slow Glows planned to kick off a three-week tour to the SXSW music festival in Austin, Texas, in March. COVID-19 changed the band's plans. The trio, made up of singer/guitarist Kelli Redding, bassist Ian Gorby and drummer Rachel Thode, had a release show for its latest single, “Sigh,” at MOTR Pub in Over-the-Rhine on March 6, but the following tour wouldn't last. “We got two dates into that and had to turn around, which was kind of a bummer,” Redding said during the band's WCPO Lounge Acts session. Music video for "Sigh" by Slow Glows.   “Shoegaze,” for the uninitiated, is best defined by guitar effects, dreamy vocals and intense volumes to create ethereal-sounding alternative rock. “To me it's like rock music that has kind of a dreamy, spacy element to it,” Redding explained. “It's lots of use of effects pedals to get that ambiance, other-worldly element.” The influence of 90s shoegaze icons like My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive is apparent on the band's 2019 debut LP, “Stargaze Rock n Roll.” “Those were the songs we'd been playing live in Cincinnati for the past two years,” Redding said of the LP. “It's got a warm vintage sound to it.” Despite not hitting the road to play music and sell records, the band seems optimistic. “We're getting creative with how to stay relevant during this,” Thode said. The band plans to return to Mt. Saturn Studio in Northside next month. “We're in the midst of almost being done with writing for our second record,” Redding explained.

Blending blues, rock 'n' roll, punk and early American music with modern forms, Austin, Texas-based duo Ghost Wolves is no stranger to MOTR Pub. The band has made the Cincinnati music venue a repeat stop during its almost eight years of touring. This time is a little different. The group returns to MOTR Friday fresh off the release of its three-song single "Crooked Cop" on Jack White-founded label Third Man Records . For singer and guitarist Carley Wolf, the partnership with Third Man was a big deal. "We're just fans of the label," she said in a news release. "They have so many of our heroes in their catalogs, people like Muddy Waters, Wanda Jackson, Dead Weather, Jerry Lee Lewis, the White Stripes. It's mind-blowing that our music will be there alongside them. It doesn't feel real, it feels like a dream." Carley and drummer Jonny Wolf, who have been married for seven years, wrote and recorded the songs against a backdrop of fear and uncertainty in their personal lives. Immediately before the recording, the Jonny traveled to visit his terminally ill father in Connecticut. "I was up there almost a month when they first hospitalized him," Jonny said in the release. "When he stabilized somewhat, I went back to Austin to take a break and be home briefly, and that's when we recorded this. So we were creating with all of that hurt going on in the background. It was therapeutic for me in a way, to be there with these people, working on art. And I think it came out on the record. It's definitely darker and more intimate than our previous albums."

This week Billy DeVore, Lee Kimbrell, Zach Powers, and Alex Schubert take take down them dirty cheatin' Pittsburgh Steelers. They also discuss Xmas, Jeff Driskel, and the future of the organization. It's also live from the MOTR Pub basement!

Formed in 2009 right here in sunny Cincinnati, Vacation is a formidable foursome bringing you a classic, grunge-influenced sound. Comprised of guitarist John Hoffman, drummer Dylan McCartney, vocalist/guitarist Jerri Queen and bassist Evan Wolff, they self-describe their sound as “grit pop.” It’s an apt description, as their sound is distinctly basement punk with just enough pop influence to keep even non-punk rockers engaged.  Contrary to their placid name, Vacation has been working hard, churning out an impressive number of tracks and LPs over the last decade. To complement their relentless production of music, they seem to be on the road nonstop. They’re certainly no stranger to owning the stage, but they’ve opened for some pretty impressive acts as well, including The Breeders, Screaming Females, Black Lips, No Age, and more. Their show this weekend at MOTR Pub in Over the Rhine will kick off a string of shows all over the country. It’s also the official release of their latest full-length, Mouth Sounds #2699. Produced by John Curley of Afghan Whigs fame, Noisey called the album "a breezy 26 minutes of loud, grungy rock." For their WCPO Lounge Acts performance, the group played a couple tracks from the new album as well as a couple older favorites. Set list: "The All" "Action Road" - interview - "Deflector Head" "Sharptooth Tinsel Town"

She made a big statement with her debut EP "Life/Death/Life" last fall, but now the Queen City's own neo-soul artist Lauren Eylise is sharing her "unapologetically feminine and soul-stirring vibes" with an R&B-loving crowd Thursday night at Downtown's Aronoff Center. The songwriter and her band, the Part-Time Lovers, are celebrating Valentine's a day late by opening up The R&B Love Show, featuring Pretty Ricky, Lloyd and J. Holiday. Earning a 15-minute slot opening for these Billboard-charting artists will be one of her most prominent opportunities so far this year, but Lauren Eylise explains it's not the only one of this caliber so far in her career. Alongside local shows at MOTR Pub and the Southgate House Revival, she opened for R&B artists Linkin' Bridge, Raheem DeVaughn and Tank in 2017. Although she's been performing for more than six years, it wasn't until September 2017 that she released her first EP. Using her ability to translate raw emotion into song, "Life/Death/Life" is Lauren Eylise's interpretation of her own healing. Having learned of the unplanned conception of her son while pursuing her music career in New York City, the singer narrates her journey through the perceived death of her dreams, the life of her child, the end of some relationships and the beginning of her career. Each of "Life/Death/Life's" seven tracks draws from loves lost, lessons learned, plans diverted, black womanhood and the natural relationship between loss and gain. "While I am excited to share this project with you, I must admit, it is for me," she wrote on her blog in August 2017. "This project is from me, to me, for me. It is a mirror for me to look on and within myself for healing and the reminder of all I’ve made it through and all that I am. I hope it can be a mirror for others as well." Lauren Eylise's witty lyricism gives off the matter-of-fact tone of Lauryn Hill and the unapologetic savagery of SZA’s "CTRL" layered with vulnerability that is purely her own. While the EP is an ode to Lauren Eylise’s own personhood, she hopes any woman can pick it up and see herself. But with blatantly transparent lines sung in a sultry voice to her own guitar strumming, not only women and R&B fans will find themselves identifying with the themes of "Life/Death/Life." This is an album for us all. Set list: Loud Afternoon (Part II) Petals - interview - Peaks and Vallies Part-Time Lover
