Podcasts about Secretly Canadian

This episode of Across The Margin : The Podcast features an interview with Erin Osmon, an award-winning, Los Angeles-based music journalist, critic, and author. She's written long-form album notes for archival releases on Blondie, Hüsker Dü, Townes Van Zandt, Sparklehorse, and many others. A veteran of Chicago newsrooms, her work appears in Rolling Stone, LA Times, New York Times, Washington Post, and other publications of record. She is part-time faculty at USC's Annenberg School of journalism. Her new book, about heartland rock in the 1980s, will be published by W.W. Norton in 2026. Her first book, Jason Molina: Riding with the Ghost — the focus of this episode — was published in 2017 and named a Best Music Book of the year by Pitchfork. Her book about John Prine's landmark debut album was published by Bloomsbury's 33 1/3 series. In Jason Molina: Riding with the Ghost, Erin presents a detailed, human account of the Rust Belt–born musician Jason Molina — a visionary, prolific, and at times cantankerous singer-songwriter with an autodidactic style that captivated his devoted fans. It details Molina's personal trials and triumphs and reveals for the first time the true story of his last months and works. Offering unfettered access to the mind and artistry of Molina through exclusive interviews with family, friends, and collaborators, the book also explores the Midwest music underground and the development of Bloomington, Indiana–based label Secretly Canadian. As the first authorized and detailed account of this prolific songwriter and self-mythologizer, Riding with the Ghost provides readers with unparalleled insight into Molina's tormented life and the fascinating Midwest musical underground that birthed him. In this episode host Michael Shields and Erin Osmon discuss how Molina's deep ties and affinity to the state that birthed him (Ohio) shaped his life and influenced his career. They explore Molina's surprising and varied musical influences, the comparison to singer-songwriter Will Oldham which shadowed Molina throughout his career, the birth of the timeless classic album that is Magnolia Electric Co., and so much more.

“I'm allergic to routine. I wake up and follow all my whims and desires. But inspiration strikes every couple of days, and when it does you don't want to be around me because I have a one track mind,” Clem Creevy of Cherry Glazerr says. That applies even when Creevy's on a date: she once rolled over in bed and starting singing a beat into her phone, much to the confusion of her bedmate. But when she's not getting inspired in bed, many of Creevy's songs start on the bass. She likes windowless rooms and prefers a messy ball point pen for her lyrics. Creevy also finds inspiration while driving, but unlike most songwriters it's not the solitude that does it. In fact, horrible LA traffic puts her in state of zen. “I love that kind of energy when I'm in a situation that seems scary and hard.”Cherry Glazerr's latest album "I Don't Want You Anymore" is out now on Secretly Canadian.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got the ringleader of the year's weirdest experimental hip-hop album, who also happens to be a well known comedian, along with two guys who helped him make it: James Acaster along with NNAMDÏ and Quelle Chris. Now Acaster isn't a household name in the States just yet, but he's definitely a known quantity in the UK, where he's from. He's a stand-up comedian, a TV presenter, and an author—he wrote a great memoir a few years back called Perfect Sound Whatever, which uses music as a starting point for telling his own story. Which sort of bring us to his musical project, which he calls Temps. Before his comedy career took off, Acaster was an aspiring musician, and he jumped back into that pursuit during the pandemic, creating a collective of over 40 contributors to make an album called Party Gator Purgatory. It's a wild mix of experimental hip-hop with rock and jazz elements, and it's chaotic in all the right ways. For this conversation, we put Acaster together with two of the guests he brought on to help out with Party Gator. NNAMDÏ seemed like a natural choice for a multiple-personality record like this one, since he's one of the most restlessly engaging musicians working right now. The Chicagoan's latest album, Please Have a Seat, was his first for Secretly Canadian, and it's a blistering mix of hip-hop, electronic music, trap, and lots more—all tied together by his voice and outlook.  Also in this chat is Detroit's Quelle Chris, who's been making records as a rapper, producer, and writer for the past decade plus. His latest album, Deathfame, also came out last year, and it's a smart, politically pointed collection of songs that showcases both his incredible flow and sense of humor—again, it makes perfect sense that Acaster would've called on him to bring something special to Party Gator. Let's check out one of the album's tracks that features all three of these guys; here's “no, no.”  In this fun and insightful conversation, these three guys talk about collaborating long-distance, how whoever's mixing an album is incredibly important, whether or not one should order cheesecake at Cheesecake Factory, and how Macklemore ruined thrift stores. Allegedly. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to James Acaster, NNAMDÏ, and Quelle Chris for chatting. The record is credited to Temps, and it's called Party Gator Purgatory.

Hunger for Wholeness: Playfulness, Technology, Embodiment and Racism with Brie Stoner (Part 2) with Ilia Delio and Robert Nicastro.In the second part of Ilia's interview with musician Brie Stoner, they share about wrestling with egos in both music and academia. They discuss the importance of insight, instincts, playfulness and embodiment and Ilia asks Brie how we can move beyond racism.“Power over always functions in a pyramid structure in which there are not enough places at the top. So it elicits fear, it cultivates fear, it propagates fear, it runs on fear. But the paradigm of communion runs on that rhizomatic view that we are all of us connected, and in a non-hierarchical way, our co-creating possibility through love and through the adventure of becoming.” (Brie Stoner in Hunger for Wholeness)ABOUT BRIE STONERBrie Stoner is a musician and songwriter who pulls from her multilingual and multicultural background in her indie dream-rock music.

Releasing nearly 20 albums over 15 years, singer/songwriter Jason Molina penned "bruised and barren songs of longing and lost salvation" (NPR). Delivered with a soul-cutting, unadorned tenor, his discography continues to connect with a devoted fan base through varied incarnations -- whether in a group dynamic as Magnolia Electric Co. under his first solo moniker, Songs: Ohia or his own birthname -- despite his death in 2013, at the age of 39.   A particularly prolific period in the mid-00's saw the release of the 4-CD Magnolia box set Sojourner, encompassing full-band recordings with Steve Albini in Chicago, an alternate line-up in Virginia with Cracker frontman David Lowery producing, an EP's worth of tracks from Memphis' legendary Sun Studio, and Molina solo tapes from home. If the wide-range of performances weren't enough, Molina wanted to double-down on his mythological side by adding a ouija board and real chicken bones to the screen-printed wooden box. Eventually, label and artist settled on a celestial map and Magnolia medallion. They also put out a truncated version of this massive collection as the 10-track single LP, Fading Trails in 2006.   Today, former Magnolia bandmate Jason Evans Groth and Secretly Canadian label co-founder Ben Swanson discuss their memories of the sessions that make up Sojourner, the journey this project has taken to get to vinyl (released earlier this month, available via secretlystore.com), and how artists today continue to spread the gospel of Molina's canon a decade after his passing. Follow @jasonamolina on Instagram for archival content, and join the Molina fan community via staticanddistance.substack.com.   Secretly Canadian is also auctioning off vinyl test pressings of Molina's work and more via eBay, linked here. All proceeds are donated to housing non-profit New Hope for Families.

Ben Swanson is the co-founder and co-owner of Secretly Group, which since launching in 1996, has evolved into 4 record labels and a music publisher. It began as Secretly Canadian in Indiana by Ben Swanson and his brother Chris, Eric Weddle and Jonathan Cargill. During its early days, the head office was at Ben and Chris' house, where Ben has recalled spending months researching how to make a CD. Fast forward to today, where the label is home to artists such as Phoebe Bridgers, Bon Iver, Major Lazer and Tig Notaro. Aside from music, sustainability is a core priority for the company. In fact, a detailed sustainability report that traces back to 2021 is available for the public to read on the Secretly Canadian website! Ben Swanson joins Earth Care to give a behind-the-scenes look at integrating sustainability into a record label. What has worked, and what environmentally-conscious goal is the business hoping to achieve next? Ben also shares potential starting points for other music industry professionals to bring sustainability into their operations!   Don't forget to hit FOLLOW or Subscribe to the Earth Care podcast!   Let's connect online: Instagram: https://bit.ly/3AEJ5KW TikTok: https://bit.ly/3KwXwoT Website: earthcareshow.com

So here's a bit of throat clearing. One of Eaves Wilder's parents is basically the reason I wanted to write about music. The other is one of the kindest people I've ever met in the music industry, which isn't a huge demographic, I'll give you that. But now that's out the way, I am absolutely obsessed – yes, obsessed – with the 20 year old's new single, the fuzzy, fizzy, poignant, brainworm of a tune, 'Are You Diagnosed?' Recently signed to Secretly Canadian, her debut EP, Hookey, follows on March 24th. I'm pleased to report that the other songs that make up that release are magic too. And so I had to have a chat with her didn't I; about mental health services, about learning to like your voice, about the genius of the pop band Lush.

Porridge Radio - "The Rip" from the 2022 album Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder to the Sky on Secretly Canadian. Right before the pandemic shut the world down, Brighton band Porridge Radio dropped Every Bad, their first record on Secretly Canadian that would go on to receive a Mercury Prize nomination as well as a generous amount of airplay on KEXP. While not technically the first album under the Porridge Radio moniker, it felt like an introduction to the band, who blended UK post-punk with anthemic indie rock for a uniquely cathartic sound. Last month, they released the follow-up Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder to the Sky which broadens Porridge Radio's sound without giving up any of their defining characteristics. Our Song of the Day is “The Rip” which is led by soaring synths and roaring guitars, as the song slowly builds and bursts. Frontperson Dana Margolin had this to say about the song: “‘The Rip' was the last song to be finished for the album, and we finished it about a week before we went into the studio to record it in March 2021. We wanted it to sound like massive pop, like Charli XCX, but with the instrumentation of bands like Slothrust or Deftones. It took the longest a song has ever taken me to write lyrics for, and they took form over a few years. At the beginning it was a song about a power dynamic where I was in control, by the end it was about one where I had none. My friends always accuse me of making up idioms and using them like they are well known phrases and I think this song is full of those. I love the idea of something being sick at the seams, like it's disintegrating from its core. I like things that are so simple they are universal. I wanted it to sound like when your heart breaks so badly that your entire body aches. I wanted it to feel like your soul is dropping out of your body.” The song comes with a video directed by Margolin's sister Ella which mimics the intensity of the song with Margolin furiously running on a treadmill while menacing figures in papier-mâché masks envelope her. Watch the video at the link below and catch Porridge Radio in Seattle on Tuesday, September 13th at Barboza.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a pair of musicians from the UK who recently collaborated for the first time, Dana Margolin and Joseph Mount. Mount has been the driving force behind Metronomy since 1999, and he's found success not only with a series of winning electro-pop records, but also by remixing tracks for big names like Franz Ferdinand, Gorillaz, and Lady Gaga. If you're unfamiliar with Metronomy, a good place to start is 2008's Nights Out, which is a sort of concept album about, as you might guess, a night out. But Metronomy's catalog is intriguingly all over the map; the band's latest is called Small World, and it features a much gentler side of Mount's songwriting personality overall. It also features a stunning duet with the other side of today's conversation, Dana Margolin of Porridge Radio. Like Metronomy, Porridge Radio really started out as a solo project but grew into more of a band situation—though each is still the brainchild of one person. Margolin started recorded under the Porridge Radio name back in 2015, but it was her second proper studio album, 2020's Every Bad, that really made the world stand up and take notice. It's a powerful, intense record that stands alongside current heatseekers like Dry Cleaning and Wet Leg, but that has a stamina all its own. Margolin is just about to release the follow up to Every Bad, an equally bracing and incredible set of songs called Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder to the Sky, once again on the Secretly Canadian label. In this conversation, Mount and Margolin talk about their collaboration, about the time that Mount almost but didn't quite catch Margolin performing, and about the importance of lyrics—you'll hear how eczema factors into a new song. They also get to Kierkegaard, Michael Stipe, and Margolin's desire to—but inability—to write a “nice little love song.” Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast and thanks to Dana Margolin and Joseph Mount for chatting.

The making of Swedish singer-songwriter Jens Lekman's “dream record” 2007's Night Falls Over Kortedala, hailed by Pitchfork and The Guardian as one of the greatest albums of its era. Now re-born as the album The Linden Trees Are Still In Blossom. Guests include Annika Norlin, Laura Snapes, Chris and Ben Swanson, and Lisa Nilsson.

Swedish singer-songwriter Jens Lekman's beginnings as a musician in Gothenburg, Sweden, his signing to Secretly Canadian, and the making of his long-lost cult compilation album 2005's Oh You're So Silent Jens. Now re-born as the album The Cherry Trees Are Still In Blossom. Featuring guests including Laura Snapes, Chris and Ben Swanson, and Dillon.

Hosts Tom Davies and Manish Agarwal sit down with Secretly Canadian co-founders Chris and Ben Swanson to conduct an interview-by-song. Prompting the brothers with a blind playlist of tracks spanning their 25 year history as a label, Tom and Manish share Dave Grohl's favorite band of 2009, hear about an accidental hug from Drew Barrymore, and discuss the fruits of a life-long obsession with CD reissues.

This week we have a PACKED show for you. We start with a discussion of what ownership means in the digital era and talk about Secretly Canadian removing Jens Lekman's 'Night Falls Over Kortedala' from streaming and sale. Then, we have reviews of new albums by Oso Oso, Bellows, and Charli XCX. 

2009 would prove a pivotal year in Jason Molina's life, a turning point that would lead to his tragic death only a few, short years later. But as he embarked on a batch of solo studio sessions in London that January––the sessions that would become Eight Gates––it would have been nearly impossible to imagine that they would be his last.

Jason Molina's friends and collaborators were well versed in his penchant for tall tales and his use of “truthlets”––benign fibs––in the service of a good story. But as Molina's problems with alcohol began to flare, the lines between truth and fiction seemed to grow increasingly blurry.

Songs: Ohia and Magnolia Electric Co. frontman Jason Molina was living in London when writer Justin Taylor caught up with him for an interview in 2010. This previously unreleased audio finds Molina in good spirits, discussing life in London, and provides a rare glimpse of his gregarious, often talebearing personality––one perhaps at odds with his darker musical persona. 

Launch trailer for the Secretly Society podcast, an original production of Secretly Group.

Whether he was recording as Songs: Ohia or Magnolia Electric Company, Jason Molina was a poetic and enigmatic musician, releasing 16 studio albums before his untimely death in 2013. Hosts Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot talk with Erin Osmon about her biography of Molina, "Riding With The Ghost." The hosts also hear what song got Leon Bridges Hooked on Sonics and review the new album from country artist Mickey Guyton. Join our Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/3sivr9TBecome a member on Patreon: https://bit.ly/3slWZvcSign up for our newsletter: https://bit.ly/3eEvRnGMake a donation via PayPal: https://bit.ly/3dmt9lURecord a Voice Memo: https://bit.ly/2RyD5Ah Featured Songs:Songs: Ohia, "I've Been Riding With The Ghost," The Magnolia Electric Co., Secretly Canadian, 2003Mickey Guyton, "Black Like Me," Remember Her Name, Capitol Nashville, 2021Mickey Guyton, "All American," Remember Her Name, Capitol Nashville, 2021Mickey Guyton, "Rosé," Remember Her Name, Capitol Nashville, 2021Mickey Guyton, "Dancing In The Living Room," Remember Her Name, Capitol Nashville, 2021Songs: Ohia, "Farewell Transmission," The Magnolia Electric Co., Secretly Canadian, 2003Songs: Ohia, "Cabwaylingo," Songs:Ohia, Secretly Canadian, 1997Songs: Ohia, "Steve Albini's Blues," Didn't It Rain, Secretly Canadian, 2002Songs: Ohia, "Soul," (Single), Palace, 1995Songs: Ohia, "White Sulfur," Songs:Ohia, Secretly Canadian, 1997Songs: Ohia, "Farewell Transmission," The Magnolia Electric Co., Secretly Canadian, 2003Songs: Ohia, "The Black Crow," The Lioness, Secretly Canadian, 1999Amanda Shires, "Just Be Simple," Just Be Simple (Unreleased), N/A, 2019Songs: Ohia, "Just Be Simple," The Magnolia Electric Co., Secretly Canadian, 2003Leon Bridges, "Motorbike," Gold-Diggers Sound, Columbia, 2021Miguel, "Sure Thing," All I Want Is You, Jive, 2010Miguel, "All I Want Is You (feat.

A conversation with Entertainment Lawyer John Seay, who recently became a founding partner at the new Atlanta-based legal firm Carter + Woodard (so new, they don't have a website!). John previously owned and operated his own practice, https://theseayfirm.com/ (the Seay Firm), where he's represented acts across a wide span of genres and with labels the likes of Atlantic Records, Interscope Records, Secretly Canadian, Merge, and many more.  As we'll touch on in our conversation - there are a TON of different questions one might have for an entertainment lawyer, but John is going to help us demystify what exactly an entertainment lawyer does, and when a musician like YOU should approach someone like him for his services.
