On the heels of two Grammy-winning albums in succession, with her band Golden Highway—2022's Crooked Tree and 2023's City of Gold—plus a nomination for Best New Artist, Molly Tuttle returns with a solo album that's her most dazzling to date: So Long Little Miss Sunshine. Recorded in Nashville with producer Jay Joyce (Orville Peck, Miranda Lambert, Lainey Wilson, Eric Church, Cage the Elephant), the fifth full album from the California-born, Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and virtuoso guitarist features twelve new songs—eleven originals and one highly unexpected cover of Icona Pop and Charli xcx's “I Love It.” Tuttle's career, which began at age fifteen, has charted a course between honoring bluegrass and stretching its boundaries. On this album—a hybrid of pop, country, rock, and flat-picking, plus one murder ballad—she goes to a whole new place. Her stunning guitar work is more up-front on this album than ever before. (One of the most decorated female guitarist alive, Tuttle was the first woman to win the prestigious International Bluegrass Music Award's Guitar Player of the Year in 2017, at age twenty-four, and won again the following year, with nominations nearly every year since; she has also won Americana Music Association's Instrumentalist of the Year award.) So Long Little Miss Sunshine also features Tuttle playing banjo, something she's never done on one of her albums before. The album was recorded with a group of musicians that includes drummer/percussionists Jay Bellerose and Fred Eltringham, bassist Byron House, and Joyce on multiple instruments. Ketch Secor (Old Crow Medicine Show) also plays banjo, fiddle, and harmonica, as well as singing harmony. Tuttle also conceived the artwork for So Long Little Miss Sunshine, which features multiple Mollys, each wearing a different wig except for one with nothing on her head at all. (“I probably own as many wigs as I own guitars,” she says.) Tuttle has been bald since she was three years old due to the autoimmune condition alopecia areata; she acts as a spokesperson for the National Alopecia Areata Foundation. One album track, “Old Me (New Wig),” is “about leaving all these things behind that don't serve you anymore,” she says. “Parts of yourself that really aren't in your best interest, like low self-esteem, anxieties, and not feeling confident. Learning to own these different aspects of my personality but not letting them control me is another theme of the record that inspired the album title and the cover art. Those are all things I've struggled with through the years—just feeling like an impostor, like I wasn't good enough. I like singing this song because there are days when I still have to tell myself to leave that stuff behind.'” Most of the So Long Little Miss Sunshine songs were co-written with Secor, who is also Tuttle's partner. “We spend so much time together, we live together, and anytime I have a song idea, or he has one, it's just so easy to transition from whatever we're doing into writing a song.” Earlier this year, Tuttle played guitar and sang on Ringo Starr's new country album, Look Up. She also played with him and a host of other stellar musical guests at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium and Grand Ole Opry as part of his televised Ringo & Friends shows. She was inspired by his fearlessness in following his passion for country music. “It is cool to see someone like that who has done everything you could imagine doing in a music career and he's still just so psyched and still has a list of things that he wants to accomplish,” Tuttle says. Looking back on her own career, “It has never been a cookie-cutter thing where I'm just going down a straight road. I always had this crooked path.”

Reuben Frank joins the 94 WIP Morning Show as the Eagles sit during their bye week. He believes that even though the Eagles made a trade for a few cornerbacks, Kelee Ringo may be who comes in at cornerback 2 position. He believes the Eagles are putting things back together on the O-line, they can be close to where they were last year.

"The number changes, but as of the writing of this description, only 1883 songs have topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart including all its earlier versions. This week back in 1990, the first rap song topped the chart. That got me wondering how many other firsts and other interesting facts surround the top spot. Here is a list."
The McGuigan Brothers dive into Help! - the album that changed everything. From Lennon's first honest breakdown to McCartney's melodic precision and George's guitar pedal revolution, this is The Beatles caught between pop idols and pioneers.Ringo delivers a signature vocal performance, George Martin keeps it genius, and the studio chaos somehow turns into timeless perfection. In the category round, the brothers rank the Best Beatle Moments, Best Groove, and Most 1965 Thing About this Album - with plenty of laughs, deep cuts, and “Didja See Where?” surprises. Beatlemania, burnout, and brilliance all in one record. Drop the needle and Help! yourself to the sound of evolution.

Sleepytime Trio formed in 1995 in Harrisonburg, Virginia, originally as a side project of Maximillian Colby. Known for their volatile, emotional sound and chaotic live shows, they quickly became a defining force in the late 90s post-hardcore scene, sharing stages with bands like Hot Water Music, Frodus, and Shotmaker. After a hiatus in 1998, members went on to form acts like Engine Down, Rah Bras, and Milemarker before reuniting to tour again. Their definitive discography, remixed by J. Robbins and remastered by TJ Lipple, showcases all their studio recordings and captures the raw energy that made them legendary. In 2024, Solid Brass Records partnered with Sleepytime Trio and their longtime label, Lovitt Records, to work on a vinyl discography to memorialize this important band. The definitive Sleepytime Trio discography to date is packaged in a single pocket gatefold LP sleeve with complete lyrics. It also includes an 8-page zine/booklet featuring an extensive show list, behind-the-scenes notes, photos, and memories from friends of the band. There is a BONUS insert also included in this pressing only!

"Anywhere But Here" Ben Arnold is a busy dude. The Philadelphia-raised musician not only has two bands--Pistol For Ringo and U.S. Rails--his solo career is in full swing and his new solo album XL finds the singer/songwriter never sounding better. His three endeavors keep him on the road but Arnold is a happy guy when he's on any highway anywhere in the world. With a handful of fabulous albums under his belt like Lost Keys and Sunday Morning Meltdown, Arnold keeps moving from strength to strength with each release. Eleven not only keeps Arnold's winning streak going, it's a beast of an album. From Catch The Lightning to "My America" to "Long Cool Shadow," Eleven is filled with rootsy fight songs, melodic muscle and bluesy bliss. It's a rousing record that's filled with nostalgia, love and regret but it also reminds us that resilience has its own rare power.

"Cryptozoology is the study of a creature that probably doesn ot exist. Think Bigfoot. What is great about it is that every state seems to have its own monster. Maybe people really do think it exists or maybe it was invented to scare children at Halloween. We built up a list along with songs about candy. It is Halloween 2025."
Billy Joel, John Fogerty, Bassist David Santos Kills Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson I was so looking forward to catching up with bassist David Santos after almost 40 years. Insane in itself! The sit-down stunningly exceeded my expectations. What crazy fun! David regaled us with story after story… starting with gigging for me on Bleecker Street, doing weddings, The Ringo AllStar Band, sans Ringo, with Billy Preston, Lou Gramm, Mark Farner, Felix Cavaliere, Liberty DeVito, Mark Rivera, Randy Bachman, and a backup singer named Wendy Moten who would change and share his life. They're a rare rock n' roll romance success story, today, 30+ years later. David took us through his 3ish years with Billy Joel, how he got the gig, and how he lost it, 13 years with John Fogerty, how he got it and then lost it, Melissa Etheridge, 7 years, how it got it and lost it, Fleetwood Mac, 1 day, how he got it, lost it, 5 yrs with Crosby, Stills, & Nash, getting it, losing it - does there seem to be a pattern here... yup, hysterically summed up each time. Sure, it's funny now, in retrospect, as David has great perspective, self-awareness, good humor, and humility. He's amassed wisdom to add to his formidable talent, perseverance, and ambition. And he always lands bass up! Unlike me, who literally did an unintended mic drop. As was pointed out, this meaty conversation had comedy, drama, romance, intrigue, horror, heart, and life lessons galore. I could have talked to David all night and still have wanted more. And more, I'll get. We have a face-to-face reunion in the reals with Wendy and Snuffy in Nashville coming up. Can you imagine the music those three could make? Don't know if that's on the menu, but do know we'll be seeing Wendy at the Grand Ole Opry, and sharing great local eats! What a way to ring in my next year! David Santos Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson Wednesday, 10/8/25, 5 PM PT/ 8 PM ET Streamed Live on my FB & YouTube Links in the Comments Replay here: http://bit.ly/46TQ3M4 and here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGNYDGbnpE4&t=3s
More fantasizing, hypothesizing and Beatle-izing on what might happen were Paul and Ringo to decide to go on tour together. Not advertised as "a Beatles reunion", just two old rock and roll friends joining their talents to play some music (both together and separately), and to pay tribute to some of their comrades in guitar-based arms.
When you think of classic rock guitar, what do you hear? Who is the most classic of all classic rock guitarists? We have a theory, and we tapped Greg Koch, the hard-touring, hard-rocking Gristlemaster himself, to join us and test it out. Is it Joe Walsh?From his time with the James Gang through joining the Eagles and embarking on a successful, hit-laden solo career, Walsh epitomized the sound of ‘70s rock guitar riffs and solos. There's a reason he eventually found his way to Ringo's All-Starr Band! So is he the definition of classic rock?Also, Greg takes this opportunity to chat about his Oasis obsession and shares his favorite Beach Boys song.Sponsored by Gibson: gibson.comFollow Nick: https://www.instagram.com/nickmillevoiFollow Jason: https://www.instagram.com/jasonshadrickGet at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.comCall/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

In much of the world, fall has arrived: a time for pumpkin spiced fajitas, cozy, warm L'eggs (TM), and candy corn suppositories. But in the magical world of Beatlefestlandia, it's always 85 degrees, Simon Kirke is hanging out with Eddie Deezen, and everyone gets a picture sleeve of Ringo's “You're 16”! Let's Huey Lewis and the Fake News (#Fox) our way back in time, to August, as we proudly present - in colour! - the global podcast premiere of “The Beatlefest for Beatles Fans”! BYO colostomy bag o'wine, as Tony, T.J., Producer Casey, P3Z-Nutz, and a Sgt. Pepper movie finale-worthy cast of thousands (tens?) head to Rosemont to kick summer's lazy ass one last time. Incredibly (bit much?), this year marks the UB3 (#Cantaloop) sharing the Fest for Beatles Fans together, as a trio, for what feels like the first time! Feels like the very first time!

Another mindbending podcast. Jennifer was up in Berkeley last weekend, ran into a concert pianist prodigy (Evan Le) and filmed a little of him playing the piano (which we included in the podcast with his mother's permission.) While Jennifer was visiting this building, she became aware of the architect of the building, and asked questions about her. Julia Morgan was the first woman architect to graduate from Berkeley and the room Jennifer was in was designed by her. She's famous for designing many buildings - including the Hearst Castle and Marion Davies' home in Santa Monica - and 700 buildings in California. I knew the building because I had been in it - but didn't know who designed it. So we invited the architect to come and chat with us. And she talked about her path and journey - and what it was like for her on the flipside. My father was an architect, and in our conversations with him, he's told us that he hangs out with famous architects from over the years, or is learning from them - and when asked if that was her experience she said "No, I'm hanging out with musicians." When asked to specify she named Jimi Hendrix - who often shows up in our podcasts. He talked about the "frequency of a building" - which is like math or music - the same thing that he delved in, and she said "his role as a musician was to shift consciousness." Since it was John Lennon's birthday yesterday, and since our first conversation with John included a memory of his playing with Jimi in the afterlife - we invited him to come and make some observations. Indeed, I did stay at Julian's place in Eze, and was awoken by the sound of John saying "Who the f*ck are you?" The sound of a voice startled me - I'd only been sleeping a couple of hours after jamming with Julian in Monte Carlo - and it took me a few seconds to recognize the voice. I didn't mention it to Julian at the time - because it was too weird, and I had zero context for it. But I do have context for it now. So Happy Birthday John, and thanks for the lovely thoughts about Paul (and Ringo) who have carried on the Beatles tradition, and how everyone on the flipside gets to participate in those concerts. It's mind bending to consider - oh and one other thing, when asked "how long does it feel like for you to be on the flipside?" and he replied "two minutes." We once asked Prince a similar question, and his reply was "a comma" - meaning that previous event to the one I was referencing felt like a comma in a sentence to him. So consider that for a moment when thinking about one's loved ones offstage. They don't have the same connection we do to time... but they can converse with us all the same. Enjoy.
Originally released March 16, 2021Sometimes, all it takes to write a signature song is...quitting your band. During a sabbatical from the tense White Album sessions of 1968, a trip on Peter Sellers' boat gave Ringo the inspiration for "Octopus's Garden." With a little help from his friends, George in particular, he was able to put together something that's incredibly charming and fun, and the last example of the band all pulling together to support their beloved drummer; it's a stellar performance all around, and a sonic gem, along with the rest of Abbey Road. As childlike and saccharine as it may be though, is it possible this is a much deeper song, where Ringo's really seeking out some shelter from the storm around him? Could this be his "Help"?We're joined this week by Liz Stokes and Jonathan Pearce, 1/2 of the New Zealand-based rock band The Beths. Their latest album Jump Rope Gazers, out now on Carpark Records, was in our top 3 albums of 2020, a literal constant quarantine companion. It's linked in our Linktree above. Over the last few years, their blend of propulsive, sing-along choruses, four-part vocal arrangements, and wry, introspective lyrics has earned them fans around the world, as well as opening slots for indie rock titans like The Breeders, Pixies, Weezer, and Death Cab for Cutie. We chatted on Mardi Gras day about all sorts of things, from very different Beatle-fan perspectives, and, in a podcast first, Jonathan admits that he maybe got his ranking wrong on this one.What do you think about "Octopus' Garden" at #178? Too high? Too low? Let us know in the comments on Facebook, Instagram, or find us now on Bluesky!

Tom Doyle, author and drummer, examines the unexplored depths of the one at the back from 70 different angles, one per chapter, in his new memoir ‘Ringo: A Fab Life' and talks to us here about …. … how he learnt to read by looking at his Dad's Beatles singles and the one that first made him notice the drumming ... what you learn re-watching him in Peter Jackson's Get Back … why Ringo gave them universal appeal and his key role in their conquest of America … supernatural brilliance: exceptional moments such as the un-slowed original Rain and “the way he makes the sound of the holes in Blackburn, Lancashire” … the delicious Britishness of comparing Rishikesh to Butlins and the mantra the Maharishi gave him he still uses every day … the pre-Beatles time he applied to emigrate to Texas and what stopped him doing it … the only Beatle who could dance: the proof! … the Lost Years and the day he had his head and eyebrows shaved … the mortifying fate of the first recording of the four Beatles together (in 1960) … how all four spent the rest of their lives in recovery … what Sam Mendes might accentuate in his upcoming portrait of Ringo ... and the clip that'll be all over the news on the day he bows out.

This week we play a little "What If" and consider what Paul might choose to play were he and Ringo to decide to go on the road for a tour of indeterminate length. More Beatles? More solo? Would he take advantage of the "Wings-mania" that (hopefully) will be running the country in the next few months? Marv and I consider the possibilities and playlists, with Ringo's side (eventually) to follow!
Riverside.FM is proud (neither legally nor officially) to present (allegedly) Chuck Swirsky and The Untitled Beatles Podcast! Brought to you (someday?) by Westmont's incredible Blue Village Vinyl. And when not spending gobs of sweet improv cash in Chicagoland's many fine vinyl establishments, you can often find the UBP Two doing the next best thing: seeing Ringo Starr And His Approximately Infinite All Starr Band, live in Chicago! Every “real” Beatles fan is aware that the Chicago Theater's most famous moment was when Donny Osmond pranced the stage nightly in a coat of many colors back in 1995. (Trivia: That's what killed a ton of old people that summer. #HeGone) But not anymore. Because Ringo Starr in 2025 has never sounded better, supported by a loyal, accomplished band who still rocks hard. Sometimes, for too long! So join Tony, T.J., Ringo, some true all-stars, a replacement player (e.g. “scab”) or two, and a few great UBP listeners, for some spirited/spirits-filled conversation, and highly illegal concert audio that can rather easily be traced back to the phone on which it was recorded.
