Podcasts about riffs

What does it really mean to grow up in a household where songwriting isn't just a passion—it's the family business? On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam Lisicky sits down with rising Nashville artist Cecilia Castleman for a raw, insightful look into her journey from Franklin, Tennessee's cow fields to the brink of her debut album release. From picking up a guitar at age six (instead of a twenty-dollar bill for the mall) to landing a publishing deal at eighteen, Cecilia Castleman and Cecilia Castleman share how a musical family, relentless work ethic, and a willingness to keep her art sacred shaped not only her sound, but the way she moves through the industry. She opens up about backseat sessions with her songwriter mom and philosophical kitchen-writing with her dad, the years-long process of choosing which "secrets and thoughts" would finally make it onto her first record, and even what it felt like to work with legendary producer Don Was after years of dreaming. In this conversation, you'll hear stories of fighting perfectionism, the struggle to stay true when comparison sneaks in, and the vulnerable process of turning personal experience into shareable art. Whether you're an aspiring musician or just a fan of great storytelling, this episode peels back the layers on what it takes to forge a musical career when "making it" means being both tough and totally yourself. Tune in to hear Cecilia Castleman's advice for artists learning to "hold your ground," her reflections on the highs and lows of chasing the dream, and why sometimes the right guitar riff and an honest lyric is all you need.

Who says taste can't evolve? This week, Andrew and Dr Sam go on a full-blown U-turn, confessing their love for bands they once treated with the kind of disdain normally reserved for traffic wardens and warm lager. Expect shocking revelations: Bonnie Tyler's absurdly overproduced 80s epic is now basically gospel. Cradle of Filth? Once unlistenable black metal, now "charmingly chaotic". The Beastie Boys go from party-clown pariahs to filth-toned bass gods. Deep Purple gets a love letter. And Split Enz? The band nobody asked for suddenly gets a sparkly redemption arc. Also: Finnish shopping centre linguistics How a Mercedes almost caused an international incident Traffic wardens, German police, and the time an entire road of cars vanished Folk music's stealthy mission to win your heart through Pete Seeger-related Stockholm syndrome Basically, it's the usual chaos with a theme loosely stuck on like a peeling gig poster on a damp venue wall. Stick around for ludicrous Hard-Ons album titles and an exploration of music that makes your genitals not catch fire (unlike Bonnie Tyler's).

Send us a textIn this series, we've been spending time with artists who didn't just make hits—they changed the language of modern music.Today, we turn to a group that took blues, folk, volume, and mystery… and built a sound so iconic that entire genres still live in its echo.Led Zeppelin.Not just “loud.” Not just “wild.” Four musicians who fused session-honed precision, deep musical curiosity, and a taste for the epic into something that still feels massive generations later.Tonight, we'll look at where they came from, how they rose so quickly, why their time together burned so intensely, and how their shadow still stretches over rock and beyond.Led Zeppelin doesn't begin with rune symbols and stadiums.It starts with working British musicians paying their dues.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Ever bought an album just because you should love it... only to file it under "respect, but no thanks"? This week, Andrew Culture and Dr. Sam go full chin-strokey and dive deep into the bands, albums, and entire genres that make them go, "I get it. I just don't want it." We're talking Flux of Pink Indians' sonic assaults, John Zorn's sex-jazz chaos, Minutemen's minute-long jazz-punk spasms, and yes, that unholy racket from Merzbow. Along the way we also chat about Damon Albarn's trouser-based stage antics, Janis Joplin's wardrobe malfunctions, and what happens when Rick Wakeman tries to write a stadium-rock opera about Henry VIII's wives. Seriously. It's an episode filled with love for the bold, the bizarre, and the borderline unlistenable. So grab your brandy, light your pipe, and stroke your chin in a disapproving-yet-respectful fashion. What you'll learn this episode: Why Andrew would rather chew tinfoil than listen to Merzbow again What makes Dr. Sam say "this is basically an angry Jackson Pollock painting" Who wins the battle of "I admire them, but no thanks" — Apex Twin or The Minutemen? Why Flux of Pink Indians were literally banned by the police (hint: it wasn't for being catchy) The sexy noises of John Zorn and why jazz speedrunning should be a sport Plus! Music recommendations, tangents about driving in America, dodgy cod reggae, and why you should never trust someone who plays saxophone and wears a beret.  

Last night was EPIC!

Welcome back to When Words Fail Music Speaks, the podcast that dives deep into the healing power of music, mental‑health battles, and the stories behind the riffs. In today's episode we sit down with CJ Pierce, co‑founder and guitarist of Johnny Pool (the band you've heard on “Madness,” “Tearaway,” and countless sold‑out arena shows).CJ shares what life on the road looks like after COVID—a whirlwind UK tour with 13 dates, a new record slated for release by year‑end, and the relentless grind of writing, recording, and performing while juggling a daytime trade in electrical work. He explains the evolution of the track “Tearaway” — how its meaning has shifted for him over 25 years — and gives us the inside scoop on the iconic opening riff (phaser‑flanger mash‑up, Digitech 2101, and a spontaneous jam with Dave Williams).We also explore how Johnny Pool's music has become a lifeline for fans facing depression, with songs like “37 Stitches” and “In Memory Of” resonating on a deeply personal level. CJ talks about the band's charitable side, from Toys‑for‑Tots shows to USO performances, and reveals his favorite gear—from vintage BC Rich guitars and Marshall stacks to the hidden‑treasure signature pedals that stay safely at home.Whether you're a metalhead craving a fresh riff, a listener seeking comfort in heavy music, or just curious about the behind‑the‑scenes hustle of a touring act, this episode delivers a candid, electrifying look at how music speaks when words fall short. Grab your headphones, crank the volume, and get ready to feel the pulse of Johnny Pool's journey.

In this Spiritual Riff, Susan and Sin explore the true power of surrender;  the moment you let go of control and allow life to lead you. They share how trusting the unknown, releasing judgment, and following your intuitive pulls open the pathway to deep peace, divine synchronicity, and miracles far beyond what the mind could ever plan. When you stop trying to control the outcome and let your God Positioning System (GPS) guide the way, you begin to see how everything, even the challenges, is working out for you. You'll discover: What surrender really means (and why it's not giving up) How to stay calm and grounded in uncertainty The difference between egoic control and divine guidance How neutrality dissolves resistance and fear Ways to strengthen your trust in Source and follow intuitive pulls Why synchronicities increase when you live in surrender How the Universe's "GPS" always knows the best route to your desires Resources & Links: >  The Surrender Experiment by Michael A.

A metal kid grows up on thrash and stadium riffs, then finds himself writing country songs on a beat-up acoustic. That's where our conversation with Jared Graham begins—somewhere between distortion and dust, showmanship and bare-boned truth—and it doesn't let up until the last chord rings.We trade stories about the albums that rewired our ears—early Metallica, the maligned but meaningful Saint Anger, and the Red Dirt records that sneak up on you with brutal honesty. Jared opens up about bombing out of a formal music track, switching majors, and refusing to quit the guitar. The pandemic pause gave him space to write; the return to stages—from winery barns to Montana saloons—taught him how to read a room, shift gears mid-set, and end with a song that matters to his family. If you've ever fought for a booking by sheer persistence, or felt that jolt when a crowd locks in and the set starts feeding on itself, you'll recognize his path.We tour the Northwest circuit—Long Branch's songwriter rounds, Ellensburg's WinterHop, Tri-Cities breweries that turn taps into stages—and swap notes on live presence from Slayer's velocity to Demon Hunter's surprise catharsis to Sturgill Simpson's relentless focus. Along the way, we dig into why rock-to-country isn't a sellout move but a search for a fuller language: metal names the rage, country names the ache, and together they feel like real life.If you love genre-bending artists, gritty lyrics, and the DIY hustle behind every “yes,” this one's for you.

This week Reid and Aria break down the global AI race from Nvidia's $5 trillion valuation and the U.S.–China chip rivalry to what happens when AI starts reshaping industries like medicine. Reid explains why the future of innovation depends on how we deploy AI, not just how we build it, and why doctors, scientists, and creators will need to redefine their expertise in a world of intelligent tools. Later in the episode, Reid responds to new calls to “pause” AI development and shares why he believes safety and progress must advance together. The conversation ends with a look at the future of healthcare and why, in Reid's view, AI won't replace doctors, but doctors who use AI will replace those who don't.

On tonight's epic episode of Straturday Night, we kick things off with a brand-new show intro — and it's killer!

In the first episode of our new series Spiritual Riffs with Susan & Sin, we're peeling back the layers of the healing industry and asking some bold questions... What if all the therapies, healing modalities, and mindset work you've been doing are still operating within the limitations of the mind? In this unscripted, soul-led conversation, Susan Francis and Sin Mariani explore the truth that most healing paths miss: as long as you're engaging with the mind, you're still playing in the illusion. True liberation can't be found through fixing thoughts or emotions.  It's accessed by going beyond them. This conversation is a wake-up call to stop chasing healing, and instead dissolve the false identity that believes it needs to be fixed in the first place. In this episode, we explore: Why most healing modalities are just sophisticated mind games The illusion of needing to “fix” yourself to be whole The limitations of therapy, mindset work, and spiritual bypassing How to connect to Source and let soul energy do the leading What it really means to follow truth beyond the mind Resources & Links: > Download the Abundance Frequency Activation (Free Audio): https://www.susanfrancis.com.au/abundance-frequency-activation > Explore all courses and masterclasses: https://www.susanfrancis.com.au/courses-masterclasses > Follow Susan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamsusanfrancis > Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@iamsusanfrancis   Connect with Sin Mariani: Downloading Light Website Instagram: @downloadinglight Facebook: @downloadinglight InsightTimer: Sin Mariani LinkedIn: Sin Mariani Youtube: Sin Mariani  

Get ready to throw some horns because Rex and Duff are back with a brand new episode of The Heavy Metal Hangover! We're kicking things off by diving headfirst into the mosh pit of live shows, starting things off by talking about Rex's recent pilgrimage to see Alice Cooper and Judas Priest. Then, it's time to dim the lights for Metal Movies!—our deep dive into films that perfectly blend metal culture and horror. We're talking cult classics and deep cuts like Demon Knight, Trick or Treat, Strangeland, and Night of the Demons, just to name a few of the twisted flicks we're dissecting! Finally, we wrap things up with a high-stakes "King of the Mountain" tough choice segment! We face off with agonizing metal dilemmas before crowning the "King of the Mountain" in a battle of impossible decisions. 

This week TNS went pink! We watched the 2000s teen comedy Mean Girls and basically had a full ADHD derailment over it. Join Devin, Nikki, and Shelby as they talk 2000s lore, lockdowns, and even Halloween plans. Don't worry we'll be back to our usual spooky antics next week! Enjoy and as always be sure to drink/smoke and riff along responsibly!
