Podcast appearances and mentions of sean tillmann

The episode you are about to listen to is a conversation that took place between Eric, Evan and Dan that was recorded after allegations of sexual misconduct and sexual assault perpetrated by musician Sean Tillmann — who performs as Har Mar Superstar — were made public. We learned of the allegations shortly after releasing an episode of the podcast where we reviewed Har Mar Superstar’s latest album. This episode offers a behind the scenes look at the conversation that took place as we processed the news and debated how to best respond to it — or whether we should even respond to the news at all. We hope that releasing this episode encourages anyone listening to have similar conversations of their own and speak up if you are witness to any sort of inappropriate or abusive behavior. We stand with those who came forward about the sexual assault and misconduct perpetrated by Har Mar Superstar. This includes those who remain silent, but have had similar experiences regardless of gender or sexual orientation. There is no excuse for his behavior.  We also have decided to take down the two episodes of Beats, Beards & Brews where we reviewed the musician’s albums as a sign of respect to the survivors. Thanks for listening, and please, be kind to one another.

A talented singer-songwriter slinging mail for USPS. An aspiring actor selling beard oils as he works to make it big in Hollywood. Three hard-working dudes hitting the mics at night with beers in hand to record a podcast. Hear these stories and more on the latest episode of Beats, Beards & Brews. OK. Maybe that last example doesn't hit quite as hard ... but you get the idea. Eric, Dan and Evan kick things off with a review of the seventh studio album, Roseville, by Minneapolis hometown hero Har Mar Superstar. If you're not familiar with the pop superstar also known as Sean Tillmann or his amazing dance moves ... you're about to get acquainted real quick! Har Mar Superstar songs previewed on this episode include: "Where We Began" "Sleight of Hand" "Neon Aglow" Next up, Dan and Eric drop their reviews of Ringing Bells Beard Oil by Last Looks Grooming Company. The oil's scent profile of leather boxing gloves, boxing ring canvas and tobacco is inspired by the iconic Martin Scorsese flick Raging Bull starring none other than the one and only Robert De Niro of Meet the Parents fame. Finally, the boys share their thoughts on a couple of gimmicky/fun 90s-inspired sour beers. Dan rates the Blood Orange Sour Gummy Gose from Half Brothers Brewing out of Grand Forks, North Dakota. Meanwhile, Eric reviews Hawaiiowan Punch from Barn Town Brewing out of West Des Moines, Iowa. We know you work hard too, loyal listener. Grab a beer. Relax and put those feet up. And tune into Beats, Beards & Brews.

Very excited to share this week's episode and our interview with Sean Tillmann (aka Har Mar Superstar). What's the best way to best describe Mr Tillman? Songwriter, singer, showman, actor?? As far as we can tell Mr Tillman is a stone cold entertainer. Mr Tillmann has recorded 6 solo albums and earlier this year released the debut of his new band, Heart Bones, a collaboration with Sabrina Ellis.His over the top and occasionally scantily clad live performances have seen him touring with The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Afghan Whigs, and Lizzo. Oh, and did we mention he famously squared off against Ben Stiller in that hilarious dance off scene in the remake of 'Starsky & Hutch'? That's right, he's an entertainer.We caught up with Mr Tillmann from his home in Minneapolis. In our standard fashion the convo was wide ranging and revealing. Topics discussed: coming up in the early 2000s, playing the UCLA quad after staying up all night watching Law & Order, overcoming personal obstacles and learning from prior mistakes, working with Cult Records, being on tour when the country went into lockdown, raising funds for local music venues, donating supplies to the local Minneapolis community in wake of social unrest, not being complacent and importance of voting, attaining a fresh perspective on life and just learning to keep on keepin' on.  It gets a little self help-y but we promise it's all worth the listen :)Above all Mr Tillmann is a proper dude. We thank him for coming on the pod and loved hearing about his journey. PS. Thank you to  the unofficial sponsor of this week's episode, Alka Seltzer! We're a major of fan of your tropical punch flavored candy medicine!

Sean Tillmann and Joe met when Sean played in Joe's basement in the late '90s. Sean tells Joe about: his early love of community theater; the origins of his ambitious nature; creating his Har Mar Superstar alter ego; losing his way in LA; why he decided to get sober; and how a series of coloring books can help those in need. During the age of social distancing, we're recording remotely and releasing daily episodes.

Most musicians wait a lifetime for the chance to be part of one outstanding project. Sabrina Ellis is currently in three of them. The front person of A Giant Dog and Sweet Spirit recently added another project to their already-impressive arsenal. Along with Har Mar Superstar mastermind (and Episode 19 guest) Sean Tillmann, Ellis embarked on a new artistic endeavor called Heart Bones. After a successful tour in which they performed the music of Dirty Dancing, the dynamic duo set out to write and record an album of their own. Last month, Heart Bones released its debut album, Hot Dish, and set out on a lengthy U.S. tour. Before kicking off that run of shows with a performance at The Cooperage last weekend, My First Band host Tyler Maas joined Ellis for a pre-show discussion about the new record, their other projects and everything that came before. Over the course of an hour-long Airbnb interview, Ellis talked about fronting a high school cover band in the suburbs of Houston, finding a place in adolescence at punk shows at a Christian coffee shop, going to NYU with intentions of becoming a playwright and coming back to Texas to join up with former bandmates in Austin and start A Giant Dog. My First Band is sponsored by Mystery Room Mastering. The show is edited by Jared Blohm. You can listen to My First Band on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify and wherever else you get podcasts.

This week's guest is Sean Tillmann. You probably know him much better as Har Mar Superstar. The Minneapolis music legend has made a name for himself throughout the Midwest — and far beyond — with his entertaining and ever-changing material. He's written songs with mainstream pop stars. He's made cameos in films like Whip It and Pitch Perfect, on TV shows like Broad City, and he currently leads the "Skeleton Crew" on Netflix's Mystery Science Theater 3000. Last year, he also found the time to start a great new project called Heart Bones. Before any of that, though, Tillmann was a kid growing up in the small town of Owatonna, Minnesota with an insatiable passion for music. Prior to his performance at last month's PrideFest Milwaukee festivities, Tillmann was kind enough to invite My First Band host Tyler Maas to join him in his car for an interview about his musical beginnings. There, Tillmann talked about winning the coveted "Ole Of The Day Award" from Taco John's, his upbringing in a musical family, renting VFW halls and park chalets for shows in middle school as part of bands with names like Chinchilla Hardware and Loaded, getting serious about music in his high school band Calvin Krime (which toured with Fred Armisen's band), as well as the unusual and unexpected turn of events that set Har Mar Superstar into motion. My First Band is sponsored by Boulevard Brewing and is edited by Jared Blohm. You can listen to My First Band on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify and wherever else you get podcasts. Music used in this show comes courtesy of Devils Teeth ("The Junction Street Eight Tigers"), Calvin Krime ("Die Beautiful"), and Har Mar Superstar ("Lady, You Shot Me").

An experimental and genre-defying concert will be performed on May 11, 2019 at the Rust Belt venue in East Moline. The Quad City Symphony Orchestra has joined forces with Moeller Nights to present the R&B/pop performer Har Mar Superstar (whose real name is Sean Tillmann) in concert with the QCSO.

It’s wintertime in Montreal, and we warm up with lifelong locals Chef Emma Cardarelli, Lisa McConnell and Ryan Gray, the owners of Nora Gray. In the near seven years the restaurant has been open it’s garnered critical acclaim for its trailblazing modern Italian fare, savvy wine selections and superb vibes. The trio gives us insights into how they helped redefine their hometown’s notions of Italian cuisine, and how they continue to set themselves apart in one of the most robust gastronomic scenes on the planet. We then dive into the archives to 2012 when we kicked it in-studio with singer-songwriter Sean Tillmann, better known by his stage name, Har Mar Superstar. At the time, Sean was all about that new new. He had recently moved to New York City from Los Angeles, he'd just launched his podcast, Nocturnal Emotions, and he was in-studio putting the finishing touches on his next album, Bye Bye 17.

No book about rock music in 2017 has generated more conversation than Lizzy Goodman's Meet Me In The Bathroom, a wildly entertaining and unrepentantly gossipy oral history of the New York City music scene from 2001 to 2011. Among the dozens of interview subjects in Goodman's book is Sean Tillmann, a.k.a. Har Mar Superstar, the tongue-in-cheek R&B singer who became a tour mate and confidante for many of the scene's kingpins, including Julian Casablancas of The Strokes, Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Paul Banks of Interpol, and Jack White. Tillmann's unique perspective — he was an insider with just enough perspective to take note of the party-addled insanity that many of those bands were living in — comes in handy in Meet Me In The Bathroom, particularly when it comes to funny/sad backstage anecdotes that helps to humanize the book's subjects. Because I loved his stories, and knew him a bit as a fellow resident of the Minneapolis area, I invited Tillmann on the podcast to talk about Meet Me In The Bathroom and his memories of the era. He did not disappoint.
