Welcome back to When Words Fail, Music Speaks – the podcast that battles depression one riff at a time. In today's episode, host James Cox sits down with the charismatic front‑man of the 80s‑metal‑infused outfit All Singers (aka Mike Golarz) for a deep‑dive into the healing power of music, the quirks of self‑teaching, and the raw joy of live performance.We kick off with Mike's origin story: a childhood of backyard jam sessions, a classically trained girlfriend who nudged his vocal chops, and a love‑letter to the acoustic guitar that still shapes his songwriting today. He shares practical tips for aspiring guitarists—why Tom Petty's simple chords are the perfect launchpad, how to survive sore fingertips, and the surprisingly effective “belly‑rub” superstition he uses to keep his airflow in check while recording.From there, we trace the band's unlikely formation during the pandemic—how an 80s hair‑metal cover group morphed into All Singers, the serendipitous connections that landed them opening for legends like Ace Frehley, L.A. Guns, Queensryche, and even two versions of Queensryche. Mike reflects on the thrill of sharing the stage with his childhood heroes and the humility that keeps those icons grounded.The conversation then shifts to their upcoming record “We Own the Night,” slated for a November 14, 2025 release, and the quirky rituals that fuel Mike's creative process. He also reveals his “unskippable” album list — from Soundgarden's Bad Motorfinger to James' pick "Black Sabbath's Dehumanizer" — and the one record that still moves him to tears: Stevie Ray Vaughan's Texas Flood.Whether you're a budding musician, a metalhead, or simply seeking a soundtrack for life's ups and downs, this episode delivers a hearty mix of humor, honesty, and hard‑earned wisdom. Grab your headphones, turn up the volume, and let the music speak.
I've always really liked this song as part of the album but never really listened to it closely until sitting down to write this episode. And that has happened a lot over the course of the last four and a bit years of recording this show. Songs you don't necessarily expect to reveal hidden depths do so with startling regularity. Does this song have a line the equal of “Most things I worry about never happen anyway”? No, probably not. Does it have a dramatic weight to it in the vein of It's Good to be King”? I wouldn't necessarily say so. But does it hold it's own as an imperiously patient, superbly constructed gem hidden in the middle of an album that most people forgot about? Absolutely it does!NOTE: There is one instance of profanity in this episode as part of a direct quote.Song and links mentioned in the episode: Song : https://youtu.be/PtcKlCnC6WM Judge Timbers : https://youtu.be/l5IzFDVskL4 Jon Scott - Tom Petty and Me : https://tompettyandme.com School of Hip : https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61579698875642Follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectTwitter: https://twitter.com/TomPettyProjectInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectBoneless Podcast Network : https://boneless-catalogue-player.lovable.appThe theme song is provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.

Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have kicked this podcast around some! This episode we're talking about Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party, the 1983 directorial debut for Cameron Crowe, and lovely artifact of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers from the earliest moments of MTV. Join us as we relish in Petty's charming humanity, Crowe's youthful filmmaker vibe, and the somewhat magical inflection point for two influential creative treasures.

Big music episode - the music mainstream is Disney and that's OK, Radiohead are not that important, Justin Timberlake very important,Elvis Forrest and the emo screamo slam scene, One Big Party festival, Elliott Smith, No Age, Best Coast, the Smell and Tom Petty's first album cover was hot
I'm joined today by good pal Pete Nester. We're officially ACTUAL friends now, not just Facebook friends, because we've hung out, broken bread together, stood in a crowd and sung our hearts out, and hugged! I thought it would be fun to recap the weekend with Pete to get his thoughts as well as mine. Also included in the episode are chats I had with Maggie Clifford and Jeff Slate. I did chat to Shine and to Jake also, but due to technical difficulties, I couldn't use those recordings! But, I'm lining up a plethora of conversations for the coming weeks with artists who performed at the Tom Petty Weekend! I already miss Gainesville and can't wait to come back next year!

Tom Petty steps out on his own and somehow sounds freer than ever. The McGuigan Brothers dive into Full Moon Fever, Petty's bright, effortless solo debut packed with “Free Fallin',” “I Won't Back Down,” "and “Runnin' Down a Dream.” From Jeff Lynne's glossy production to Mike Campbell's garage riffs, the brothers trace how a record once rejected by MCA became a late ‘80s masterpiece and Petty's biggest solo triumph.
Well, she was an American Girl. Raised on Promises. "American Girl" by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers captures the essence of the American experience. The song has resonated with audiences for decades, becoming an anthem of youthful aspiration and resilience by blending nostalgia with the promise of new beginnings.Thanks again to our friends at Once Upon a Coconut for fueling the musical journey!
Day Three of the Tom Petty Weekend in Gainesville was a perfect way to end a perfect weekend. I can't begin to tell you how much fun I had with the most amazing bunch of people you'll ever be lucky enough to meet. The energy at the Heartwood was electric again and was added to by the arrival of Keith Eveland. We also had some top tier musical performances and I'll go through the ones I saw in this final recap before I do a look back properly at the even later.Follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectTwitter: https://twitter.com/TomPettyProjectInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectBoneless Podcast Network : https://boneless-catalogue-player.lovable.appThe theme song is provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.

Inspired by the wonderful Brian Colburn from the My Weekly Mixtape podcast, I decided to take a hard left turn this week, as I prepare to fly down to Gainesville, and do something a little different! We're going to take listener suggestions for artists to use as a starting point from which we'll attempt to link our way back to Tom Petty within six degrees of separation! This was a lot of fun and I'm definitely going to do it again!Check out Brian's full Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon episode of My Weekly Mixtape here: https://myweeklymixtape.com/2025/11/03/the-ultimate-six-degrees-of-kevin-bacon-the-music-edition-playlist/Don't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectTwitter: https://twitter.com/TomPettyProjectInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectBoneless Podcast Network : https://boneless-catalogue-player.lovable.appThe theme song is provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.

Willie calls in Jase and his “special set of skills” for backup in fixing a neighborhood problem. Al isn't surprised when Jase's Celebrate Recovery sermon takes an unexpected turn and transforms into a Tom Petty sing-along that brings the whole room to life. Zach manages to make even the most mundane passages in the Bible into an interesting lesson.

In 2013, the Heartbreakers played a five night mini-residency at the Beacon Theatre in New York city. Among the tracks from the archives that the band pulled out during that run was today's song, When a Kid Goes Bad. In an interview with Relix magazine, Tom says “I will make a point of playing that song because they didn't listen to me the first time, I didn't feel like they understood it and I think it speaks for itself. Playing it in the shows is almost chilling - kids are going bad, bad things happen to kids. I'm not going to sit silently by as that goes on; it's the duty of every artist to comment on things like that. So sometimes, you find something you wrote that becomes even more relevant.”Check out the song here : https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=TbLIhtGv2pEDon't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectTwitter: https://twitter.com/TomPettyProjectInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectBoneless Podcast Network : https://boneless-catalogue-player.lovable.appThe theme song is provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.

Opie kicks off with Rick Rubin's 10,000-spin obsession with Tom Petty's Full Moon Fever, then debates perfect albums (Zeppelin IV, The Bends, Metallica's Black Album). Ron the Waiter jumps in to help trash the Statue of Liberty (Eiffel's ugly sister?), debate 18-inning World Series records, and spiral into AI wiping out coders, CPAs, window washers & cashiers. Cats, Cuomo vs. Mamdani, and McDonald's penny-less rounding rules cap the chaos. Live-streamed sunrise, zero filter—classic Opie Radio.
A band doesn't thrive for thirty plus years by accident. Guitarist/Singer and cofounder Johnny Hickman opens up about the simple pact that kept Cracker alive—stay the course, skip the drama, and serve the song. We dig into how he and David Lowery decide who sings what, which ideas belong to Cracker versus solo projects, and how rotating players and richer arrangements kept the sound evolving without losing its soul.Johnny shares the heart of their identity as a conversation between his signature riffs and David's singular voice, a push-pull that lets them morph styles while staying unmistakably Cracker. From the pressure to follow Kerosene Hat with more of the same to choosing strings, keys, and pedal steel instead, he explains how ignoring trends led to a fan favorite. We swap notes on Tom Petty and Mike Campbell's riff-to-song alchemy, why Boys of Summer proves genre lines are flimsy, and how great songs outlast scenes and labels.Community threads through everything: Camp In and Camp Out's curated nights and those joyous, glitchy “Live from the Cave” streams that carried fans through lockdown. Johnny previews a Halloween return on his public page “Johnny from Cracker,” complete with costumes and sly covers alongside Cracker staples.Hit play for candid stories behind I Hate My Generation, Loser, and the band's onstage philosophy: play the hits proudly, let the deep cuts breathe, and keep the room connected. If Cracker ever sound like your favorite band, Johnny says, you'll bring friends—and that's exactly how this family keeps growing. Enjoy the conversation, share it, and subscribe so you don't miss the celebration and more.Send us a one-way message. We can't answer you back directly, but it could be part of a future Music In My Shoes Mailbag!!!

By 1985, Simple Minds were coming off a #1 album in the UK with Sparkle in the Rain and sales from all around the world. But it only went to #64 in the US and they needed something to spark greater interest across the pond. When Don't You Forget About Me from The Breakfast Club Soundtrack hit #1 in May 1985, a song they originally resisted, they had that spark and built on that success with memorable performance at Live Aid in Philadelphia. Their next album would need to be special to keep the momentum building. New York producer Jimmy Iovine (Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Nicks, Tom Petty) came to London to work with the boys as they welcomed in new bass player John Giblin. He encourage Jim to emote more - to really sing his heart out - in the studio and his soul is captured on Once Upon A Time. Jim's lyrics are optimistic about the future - the native Glaswegians know where they come from (Oh Jungleland) and can be proud of what they've accomplished (Come a Long Way). Alive and Kicking would be the first single to follow up #1 smash Don't You Forget About Me and soared up the charts, thanks in part to a music video shot in the Pocono Mountains - former Simple Minds drummer Mel Gaynor enlightens us with a funny story from that video shoot! They can get political without getting preachy (Ghostdancing) while bringing you to your feet with glorious salvation (Sanctify Yourself). Released October 21, 1985, Once Upon A Time would be the 2nd consecutive #1 in the UK and the 1st gold record for the band in the US. But what if they put Don't You Forget About Me on it? It was already a #1 and hadn't been on a Simple Minds album. The Wolf believes it would have resulted in millions of more sales and fans for the band in the US but that's a debate you'll have to hear!

The perfect autumnal read exists in Ellen O'Clovers adult romance debut, The Heartbreak Hotel. Do not be fooled by the charming and magical cover of this book, within these pages is a sweet romance wrapped with humanity, life and the road blocks we all face. The invisible string within this book was healing and how when you let your guard down and trust one another, real relationships can form.I loved chatting with Ellen about the cross over from YA to adult novels, the importance of setting, romance novels and the inspiration (hint it involves a Tom Petty song!) behind the book!I have said it before and I will say it again, we need romance now more than ever!

Flu shot. Tom Petty. Listeners call in and share their thoughts.
Jase explains why Tom Petty's “I Won't Back Down” is his new walk-up song, and Zach pitches a wives-included “Unashamed Live” tour. Jase proves that Unashamed Nation is the best group of fans out there, and he reins in his rabbit holes long enough for the guys to finally dive into John 18's illegal proceedings against Jesus, contrasting earthly power with sacrificial victory. They connect Pilate's mockery of Jesus and the Barabbas exchange to the mission that carries the Word of God to the ends of the earth. In this episode: John 18; Matthew 26; Daniel 7; Daniel 2; Acts 1, verse 8; Acts 8; Acts 9; Isaiah 49, verse 6; Isaiah 52–53; Psalm 110; Ephesians 1; Romans 8; Romans 1, verse 16; Matthew 16; Ephesians 6 “Unashamed” Episode 1190 is sponsored by: ONE NIGHT ONLY! “Off School Property" hits theaters October 23.

So many great cover songs. My list is really long. That's why we have part two. Find Waylon Jennings, Todd Snider, Tom Petty, Pat Green, Cheap Trick, and a bunch more. Pretty simple, really. Dive into the magic on Rock Pop and Roll.
This is top tier songwriting for me. When you have a platform and you can take a risk by punching up at people who have power, I think it's good to do it now and again. If you can take that polemic and wrap it in a powerful, simple, stomping track like Joe, then I'm all in. There's a theatrical element to the song that you could easily imagine fitting a full broadway production. You could see the lights strobe out on those relentless kicks, while Joe, with crooked yellowing teeth and a Fagin-esque grotesqueness, is lit from beneath in red as he slobbers and snarls his way through his commercial wet dream. Joe isn't just a great track, it's one of the songs that glues this entire album together. With no villains, there can be no heroes - and we will get a hero late in the piece - so Joe is the essential leviathan lurking in the shadows of the story.Check out the song here : https://youtu.be/KBqPLw_6XD8Don't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectTwitter: https://twitter.com/TomPettyProjectInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectBoneless Podcast Network : https://boneless-catalogue-player.lovable.appThe theme song is provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.

“There could be world peace if everybody just went to rock concerts all the time.”This week on Dropped Among This Crowd, Sara J. welcomes world-renowned and iconic music photographer Richard Beland for a captivating two-part conversation that dives deep into music, memory, and the magic of live shows.In Part One, Richard takes us on a journey through his early years in a border town, where mischief and music first intertwined. From discovering his mom's record collection and obsessively tuning into Detroit radio, to finally getting permission to attend his first concert in 1983 — Richard traces the roots of a lifelong passion.He shares how flipping through rock magazines planted the seeds for his legendary photography career and recounts the moment that changed everything: bringing a Nikon camera to the Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, and Tom Petty show at Rich Stadium in Buffalo on July 4th, 1986 — a day that set his creative path in motion.Sara and Richard also explore the welcoming spirit of the jamband community, his experiences as a devoted Deadhead (with over 150 shows under his belt), and his heartfelt journals filled with memories from the road. Along the way, Richard opens up about losing his father just three days after his 20th birthday — a pivotal moment that reshaped his connection to touring and storytelling through images.Plus, hear behind-the-scenes tales from his nearly 20 years as house photographer at Fallsview Casino, from shooting rising star Yungblud to an unforgettable (and hilariously awkward) photo session with Art Garfunkel — complete with a ten-minute apologetic voicemail he'll cherish forever.Get ready for a warm, nostalgic, and insightful conversation about the shows that shaped a career, the people who made it unforgettable, and how the power of live music can change a life.More from this week's guest:Website: https://richardbeland.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/richard.belandFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/14LapA4SrHW/?mibextid=wwXIfrLiss Gallery Presents: Richard Beland Our Immortal Stars Vol. 1: VIP Book Launch and Artist Reception: October 25th, 2025 - https://www.lissgallery.comListen to Richard on The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown (Song Number 4): https://kite.link/song4Donate to DATC Media Company: https://datcmediacompany.com/supportGive the gift of Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Datcmediacompany/giftThe DATC Media Podcast Family: https://datcmediacompany.com/podcastsWant to be a guest on the show? https://datcmediacompany.com/contact/ola/services/be-a-guest-on-dropped-among-this-crowd-podcastWant to be a RoughGauge featured artist?

Welcome to one of the wildest nights we've had on Real Ghost Stories Online Live — where haunted tech, ghostly goodbyes, cursed bunk beds, and paranormal scandals all collide in one packed show. Here's what you'll hear in this full episode:
Caller Brandy from Austin, Texas, delivers a chilling story that mixes grief, music, and the unexplained. After moving from California and working exhausting overnight shifts, she tried to grab sleep during the day. But her rest was broken by phantom footsteps racing across laminate floors. Each time she called out — silence. Each time she checked, only her sleeping dog. Then, days after Tom Petty's death, her mom's phone suddenly started blasting one of his songs — no caller, no alert, no reason. The timing was uncanny, especially since Brandy admits she took Petty's death extremely hard, as though she'd lost someone she truly knew. The crew unpacks this story with a mix of empathy and fascination: how artists can shape our lives so profoundly that their passing feels personal, why music often feels like a bridge between the living and the dead, and whether this was a coincidence or a ghostly farewell. From Merle Haggard to Suzanne Somers, they tie in their own moments of pop culture grief and the paranormal echoes it can leave behind. This is a segment that hits both heart and spine — a ghost story, yes, but also a meditation on how loss lingers.

The crew unpacks this story with a mix of empathy and fascination: how artists can shape our lives so profoundly that their passing feels personal, why music often feels like a bridge between the living and the dead, and whether this was a coincidence or a ghostly farewell. From Merle Haggard to Suzanne Somers, they tie in their own moments of pop culture grief and the paranormal echoes it can leave behind. This is a segment that hits both heart and spine — a ghost story, yes, but also a meditation on how loss lingers.
