Podcasts about music interviews

Today, I had the pleasure of interviewing a new addition to the Atlanta indie music scene. Cooks of Cassidy moved to Atlanta from Kansas last year and has been ingratiating herself in the community ever since. I found her song 'By The Pail' on TikTok a month or so ago and have been obsessed with it ever since. After she dropped another banger, 'Sparrow's Ticket', I knew I had to have her on the pod. We got to chat about her songwriting process, lyrical world building, film editing and why Hop Along is her favorite band!Make sure to follow her on social media  ⁨@CooksOfCassidy⁩  And follow the podcast on instagram @onthatnote_podcast

EPISODE 137: Embracing a broad range of musical styles, British singer-songwriter Tasmin Archer's soulfully silky voice has graced a strong catalogue of songs with an eclectic mix of themes since the 1990s. Archer first came to public attention in 1992 with the UK chart topper and worldwide hit 'Sleeping Satellite' taken from the platinum debut album 'Great Expectations'. Three further singles from the album were top 30 hits in the UK. She received a Brit award in 1993 and was nominated in two further categories the same year. Archer also won an RSH Gold award in Germany and was nominated in the best alternative artist category for an MTV award in the US. 'Shipbuilding', an EP of four Elvis Costello covers, was released in early 1994 and was followed in 1996 by the more introspective, critically acclaimed album 'Bloom'. 'On', the third Tasmin Archer studio album was released independently on Quiverdisc in 2006. A new album 'A Cauldron of Random Notes' is scheduled for release in September 2025. tasminarcher.comContact us: makingsoundpodcast.comFollow on Instagram: @makingsoundpodcastFollow on Threads: @jannkloseJoin our Facebook GroupPlease support the show with a donation, thank you for listening!

In episode #250 of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Andrew Davie from Bear's Den and Irish singer-songwriter Ciaran Lavery to discuss their beautiful new collaborative EP Promiser — a stripped-back collection celebrating love, simplicity, and connection. Quietly recorded over just five days in Andrew's home studio and released via Communion Records, Promiser explores the art of restraint — capturing songs in one-take performances filled with birdsong, rain, and real human imperfection. “There was this lyrical idea early on of trying to write songs that didn't need innate conflict or tragedy to exist — songs that celebrated love in its simple, domestic moments, without the need for high drama.” — Andrew Davie, Bear's Den Drawing inspiration from the intimacy of Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska and Adrianne Lenker's Bright Future, Promiser sees both artists embracing the beauty of limitation, joined by guests Emma Gatrill and Joshua Burnside for instinctive, emotionally charged one-take performances. In this conversation, Bear's Den and Ciaran Lavery reflect on the friendship and creative spark behind Promiser — writing songs without conflict, finding meaning in everyday love, capturing raw home-studio moments, and bringing the record to life on their fast-selling Irish tour. “Working with Bear's Den felt almost accidental — we followed what felt right, not what was perfect.” — Ciaran Lavery “Ciaran's songs would just appear — almost fully formed — and that was a real joy to witness.” — Andrew Davie, Bear's Den Bear's Den are known worldwide for their cinematic folk sound and emotional honesty. Ciaran Lavery, one of Ireland's most acclaimed singer-songwriters, is celebrated for his poetic lyricism and intimate storytelling. Together, they've created something special with Promiser — a record that captures the raw beauty of two songwriters in complete creative trust.

Fresh from bringing the spirit of the Midnight Ramble to the High Sierra Music Festival stage, Amy Helm sits down with the hosts for a moving and unflinching conversation about family, recovery, and carrying forward a legacy. Recorded backstage among the festival magic, this episode blends raw honesty with deep musical history.Listen to Amy open up about:The Phoenix Rising: How Levon Helm turned personal crisis into renewal with the legendary Midnight Rambles in his Woodstock barn, sparking his recovery and Grammy-winning resurgence.The Kitchen Meeting That Changed Everything: An encounter between the Helm and Lesh families that inspired Phil Lesh to build Terrapin Crossroads.Holding a Legacy: What it means to carry forward a parent's vision with authenticity. Bringing the Ramble to High Sierra: The first-ever festival Ramble, with Amy's son on drums alongside original band members, capturing the tradition's family spirit.Phil Lesh as Mentor: How Phil guided her into the Grateful Dead songbook and gave her permission to reinvent songs in her own voice.Writing Silver City: Turning her own stories—and the story of a young fan lost to addiction—into songs of resilience, honesty, and self-discovery.Festivals, Family, and Community: Why inclusive, non-pretentious festivals matter more than ever in an industry full of “taste-makers.”Equal parts storytelling and testimony, Amy Helm's words remind us that music is more than entertainment — it's survival, legacy, and the thread that binds communities together.HIGHLIGHTS“The whole thing about holding a legacy… it doesn't matter whether your dad was a carpenter or a drummer. What matters is how other people are remembering it and feeling filled up by it.” — Amy Helm on carrying forward Levon Helm's vision“The Midnight Rambles were about recovery — physically, spiritually, financially. My dad started with 20 people just to pay the electric bill, and from there he got his voice back, his career back, and won three Grammys.” — Amy Helm on the rebirth of Levon Helm“Phil showed me that these songs were meant to be rediscovered in every fraction of every moment. That gave me permission to find my own way into the Grateful Dead tradition.” — Amy Helm on Phil Lesh as mentorSHOWSJoin Amy Helm w/ The Helm Family Midnight Ramble at the Levon Helm Down Home JubileeOctober 18, 20025 -  Marvell, ARCatch the remaining 2025  "Midnight Ramble" shows at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, NY on Nov 1, 28 and New Year's Eve!Check the calendar of other artists appearing at the venue in 2025 including Tales From The Green Room guests Sam Grisman (Sam Grisman Project) on October 21 and Eric Johnson (Fruit Bats) on Halloween.MUSICMoney On 7, Amy Helm – Available on Tidal – High Fidelity Music Streaming                                              Music and Lyrics by Amy Helm, JT NeroCotton And The Cane, Amy Helm – Available on Tidal – High Fidelity  Streaming                                              Music and Lyrics by Amy Helm, Mary Gauthier     LINKS                Amy Helm Official WebsiteLevon Helm Studios - Home Of The Midnight RambleHigh Sierra Music Festival

In Episode #247 of the XS Noize Podcast, host Mark Millar is joined by Finn O'Brien — frontman of London via Bristol indie band The Jacques — to discuss the band's powerful new album Make Repetition. The Jacques' story is one of resilience, tragedy, and survival. Formed as teenagers, they rose quickly with early festival slots and a Libertines support show at Hyde Park, before facing devastating setbacks — including the loss of bandmate Will Hicks and Finn's own battle with addiction. Now, with Make Repetition!, produced by Dan Swift, Jules Apollinaire, and Gordon Raphael, the band have emerged with their strongest, most confident work to date. In this episode, Finn talks about the stories behind songs like “Nothing Amazing” and “Via Dolorosa,” how he ended up making John Lydon cry while touring with PiL, and what really happened when the band's gear was stolen by their tour manager. He also reflects on music as a vital lifeline, the resilience that has carried The Jacques forward, and why their next record might be a concept album.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Al Pitrelli celebrates the legacy of the band, the massive 2025 winter tour and much more in this exclusive conversation.

In this episode of Tales From the Green Room, the hosts welcome Chaparelle, the Texas-based pop, folk and classic-country band created by Zella Day, Jesse Woods, and Beau Bedford. The trio discuss their unique musical lane, inspired by a blend of romance, personal experiences, and a mutual affinity for original music, which has earned them a dedicated following. Special guest, Rob Bleetstein (SiriusXM Producer and Host) joins the show, having dubbed the band's music style as “Eroticana” - while Zella Day describes the essence of her theatrical, sometimes sensual flair blending with the band's authentic country-influenced performances. Recorded after the band's second remarkable set in two days at the High Sierra Music Festival - moments before they hit the road to promote their new record, Western Pleasure – Zella, Jesse, and Beau delve into their personal dynamics and the importance of collaboration. This episode encapsulates a blend of humor (touching on the difference between Texas and California hippies!), camaraderie, and heartfelt moments, offering a comprehensive insight into the lives and music of Chaparelle and a peek into their aspirations, surely leading them to a bright future. HIGHLIGHTSZella and I got together romantically, and we wanted to start a band together… and write some songs… but writing songs while you're in a relationship, just two people, can be pretty difficult. It gets very personal, very quick, and we were still in our honeymoon phase, and we were like, why are we doing this to ourselves? Let's stick with the romance. Then we met Beau… that third angle on the triangle… and everything just fit. -Jesse Woods on writing songs while in a romantic relationship with Zella Day and Beau Bedford saving the day.                                                              If you look at the packaging of the vinyl…every last lyric, everything really is within the world we've created. And we're getting better and better at being able to decipher what that world is. Somebody recently said to me, which I really liked, that was good advice, and I think it's what we're doing here, is to find a lane and take that lane completely over.. And so that's what we're doing. We're the only ones doing it like we are right now.-Zella Day on Chaparelle's mission to dominate their lane.Seeing you at clubs is one thing…but when you're on these bigger stages with bigger PAs, even though the music is totally country and it's put together, there's so much space in between everything, the way the songs are constructed, the way you guys play…there's just plenty of room for everything. But the rock element really comes through on so many of the songs… I have so many friends who saw you for the first time, and especially some younger ones who maybe are not big country lovers and they were just like freaking out.-Rob Bleetstein praising Chaparelle's performance on the big stage at High Sierra Music Festival.I think we want to just be surrounded with people that we really love and to make music that we love. I think we're talented enough for good things to happen, but the rest of the world's in control of that. We only in control of putting out songs that we love and that we believe in… and trying to hang out with people that we love.-Beau Bedford on the band's aspirations.MUSIC2025 Album – “Western Pleasure” - ChaparelleUPCOMING SHOWS (as of day of episode drop) - TICKET LINKS  Sep 20, 2025 - The Chapel -San Francisco, CATicketsSep 21, 2025 - Harlow's - Sacramento, CATicketsSep 23, 2025 - Moe's Alley Santa Cruz, CATicketsSep 24, 2025 - SLO Brew Rock - San Luis Obispo, CATicketsSep 26, 2025 - Pappy + Harriet's - Pioneertown, CATicketsSep 27, 2025 - Ohana Fest - Dana Point, CATicketsOct 11, 2025 - Gruene Hall - New Braunfels, TXTicketsOct 16, 2025 - Fine Line - Minneapolis, MNTicketsOct 17, 2025 - High Noon Saloon - Madison, WITicketsOct 18, 2025 - The Stache - Grand Rapids, MITicketsOct 20, 2025Turntable - Indianapolis, INTicketsOct 21, 2025 - Thunderbird Café & Music Hall - Pittsburgh, PAwith Esther RoseTicketsOct 22, 2025 - World Cafe Live - Philadelphia, PATicketsOct 24, 2025 - The Sinclair - Cambridge, MATicketsOct 25, 2025 - Music Hall of Williamsburg - Brooklyn, NYTicketsOct 28, 2025 - The Atlantis - Washington, DCTicketsOct 30, 2025 - The Grey Eagle - Asheville, NCTicketsOct 31, 2025 - Neighborhood Theatre - Charlotte, NCTicketsNov 1, 2025 - The Charleston Pour House - Charleston, SCTicketsNov 5, 2025 - Terminal West - Atlanta, GATicketsNov 6, 2025 – Saturn - Birmingham, AL

In Episode #245 of the XS Noize Podcast, host Mark Millar is joined by Neil Hannon — the brilliant mind behind The Divine Comedy — for a revealing conversation about his stunning new album, Rainy Sunday Afternoon, out this September on Divine Comedy Records. His 13th studio album and perhaps his finest to date, Rainy Sunday Afternoon, was recorded at Abbey Road and finds Hannon blending lush orchestral arrangements with sharp lyrical insight. Written as a response to personal reflection and global unrest, the record explores themes of memory, mortality, and melancholy — all delivered with his trademark wit and elegance. The Divine Comedy's 13th album, balancing grief and absurdity, and why songwriting still feels like emotional alchemy. The album's lead single Achilles, inspired by a 1915 WWI poem, is a moving meditation on bravery and loss. Elsewhere, Hannon reflects on writing songs for the hit film Wonka and revisiting his past through the remastered Divine Comedy back catalogue. In this episode, Neil discusses the emotional and philosophical ideas behind the new record, the creative freedom of writing for film, and why music — now more than ever — needs both sadness and silliness. He also teases the upcoming UK tour and shares reflections on a career spent crafting one of Britain's most unique and literate songbooks. Whether you've followed The Divine Comedy since Casanova, or are discovering Neil's genius for the first time, this is a rich, witty, and deeply human episode not to be missed.

John and Paige are back, and they're sitting down with Grace Koon of Grace Vonderkuhn. Grace talks about the music community in Wilmington, Delaware, and how being even just a little outside of the greater Philadlephia area can change the whole way you form and flourish as a band. She talks about her bandmates, Brian Bartling and DaveMcGrory, and how they've refined the sound of the band over ten years together. And she takes us all through the long process that it took to release their newest LP, 'In The Morning', out now wherever you get your digital music, and also available on vinyl from the band's website.  Grace is kind enough to play us an acoustic version of "Be Mine" from the new record. The band plays their release show on September 12th at Kelly's Logan House in Wilmington, and will head up to South Philadelphia on September 18th to play at Century.  Dan keeps you all up to speed with his life over in Hong Kong, and some of the upcoming shows he hopes to catch this year (Any of y'all ever heard of the Clockenflap?). Enjoy the beginnings of fall wherever you are. We'll be putting out a new playlist episode at the end of this month, so if you're a Philadelphia artists and have new material that you want to share, send it our way to dan.drago@25oclockpod.com.
