Turn the band is the 70 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,679 whole loaf, and they are here. We're gonna speak with them in a 71 00:13:26,759 --> 00:13:31,600 moment. This is Matt Connorton unleashed and we are live from the studios of 72 00:13:31,799 --> 00:13:35,200 w m n H ninety five point three FM on Canal Street in Glorious Manchester, 73 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:41,080 New Hampshire. And of course it is Saturday, April twentieth two, 74 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,679 thy twenty four. Welcome everybody, and we've got them. We've got the 75 00:13:45,759 --> 00:13:50,200 whole band here, the whole loaf. It was too obvious. I had 76 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,399 to say it. Hey guys, thanks, thanks for having thanks for having 77 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,559 us. I assume this is the whole band. I mean, you know, 78 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,720 usually if there's five five people, that's that's the whole I don't think 79 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,639 I've ever interviewed a band. We got some bread crumbs here and there, 80 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,159 but we're the whole loaf. We try to have the whole loaf fun, 81 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,799 not just a few slices, you know, yes, one sandwich, don't 82 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:11,200 cut it, you know, that's that's right. You gotta do what you 83 00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:16,879 gotta do. Well, let's let's start with you. I'd like to go 84 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,519 around, have you each introduce yourselves and tell us, tell us who you 85 00:14:20,559 --> 00:14:22,200 are, what you do in the band. And I'd like to start with 86 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,440 you because, for one thing, I met you already. Yeah, so 87 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,559 you have an advantage oh god, I didn't realize that. And you're the 88 00:14:28,559 --> 00:14:31,240 bass player, correct, I am the bass player. I'm also a bass 89 00:14:31,279 --> 00:14:33,519 player. We have to stick together. I don't feel that, uh, 90 00:14:33,679 --> 00:14:37,200 I don't feel that we get enough credit for what we do. Absolutely, 91 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,720 and you deserve credit for those baselines. Yeah, Ryan, I'm the bass 92 00:14:41,879 --> 00:14:43,720 player. You know. Charlie's my main guy. And you know, I 93 00:14:43,799 --> 00:14:48,559 take a lot of inspiration from Phil Lesh and Jack Cassidy and kind of bass 94 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:54,360 players who aren't really bass players. So I try to be emblematic of that 95 00:14:54,519 --> 00:14:58,120 style. Interesting. I want to come back to that afterward. But uh, 96 00:14:58,279 --> 00:15:00,840 and you, sir, yes, Oh, I can't hear you. 97 00:15:00,919 --> 00:15:05,639 I'm sorry, hang on, something's uh why can't I hear you? I 98 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,639 think I know why I can't hear you. I'm still getting used to the 99 00:15:09,679 --> 00:15:13,320 new studio. Yeah, oh I can't. I can't hear you. There 100 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,039 we go. Nice. Hey everyone, this is Charlie Kenny and I bank 101 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:24,480 stuff professionally and drums on the side the loaf. Very good, yeah, 102 00:15:24,679 --> 00:15:31,639 Charlie, alrighty, welcome Charlie. That's our guy. Congratulations on the banging 103 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:37,879 and and uh and you, I'm Sean. I like that jacket. By 104 00:15:37,879 --> 00:15:41,799 the way, you thank you. I play organ and keyboards and you gotta 105 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,440 talk right into that. Yeah, sorry, that's uh yeah, there you 106 00:15:45,519 --> 00:15:50,279 go. I'm Sean Crowley and I play organ and keyboards and I sing thank 107 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,600 you very good? Yes that that it droops? I know. And you, 108 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,679 sir, I'm Jack. I am one of the two guitarists in this 109 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,840 band. I try to write more simple stuff as Kyle likes to take a 110 00:16:02,879 --> 00:16:06,399 more jazzy approach. But I think that that balance is something that, you 111 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:07,679 know, kind of sets a support. I would say, so, okay, 112 00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:11,480 and you, sir, my name is Kyle. I usually try to 113 00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:15,639 play the triangle whenever I can. That's my favorite instrument and it really blends 114 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:21,279 together with our sounds. Sometimes they'll bring out the bongo, but I guess 115 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,440 recently I've been playing the guitar. Okay, well, very good. Now. 116 00:16:25,559 --> 00:16:29,559 Now, has the band always been the five of you? Yep? 117 00:16:30,679 --> 00:16:33,000 For the most I think that's a bit of a gray area rest of it. 118 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,120 We kind of came in at different stages, but for the most part, 119 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,080 yeah, okay, how long has the whole of existed? So that's 120 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:47,080 a showing question. Kyle and I started in January twenty twenty three. Okay, 121 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:52,720 and between then and beginning of May, we slowly picked up everybody. 122 00:16:52,039 --> 00:16:56,240 Okay, so it was first me and Kyle, then we picked up Charlie 123 00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:00,519 actually in February, Jack sometime in early March, and Ryan was beginning of 124 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:04,079 May. Okay, we stole Ryan. We did. We just kind of 125 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:11,440 told we've got that Strange Brew. Yeah, yeah, so it sounds like 126 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:17,279 there's a story. Yeah. So essentially without the Strange Brew being how it 127 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,160 is, without Mitch the owner, without Howard who runs the Sunday night open 128 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,839 Mike Blues Jam, and without all of his crew, John madeiros Mark, 129 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,240 Steve, everybody there, like, we wouldn't have met. So without that 130 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,440 place being there, this band wouldn't have really ever gotten off the ground and 131 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,759 it wouldn't have really even existed. So we definitely owe quite a bit to 132 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,519 that place, which is why we love coming up to Manchester because it's like 133 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,920 we kind of consider this place as like a home to us, as like, 134 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,720 yeah, like our first stomping ground. So we also come and share 135 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,400 for our story and be able to hang out. Where are y'all from? 136 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,319 Different? So I'm from a dunstable Massachusetts a cow town. I was gonna 137 00:18:00,319 --> 00:18:06,559 say, I don't even know where Dunstable is there twice a week. Yeah, 138 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,839 yeah, it's just south of Nashua, New Hampshire, around the line, 139 00:18:12,039 --> 00:18:15,839 right right over the border. Okay, okay, are you guys all 140 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,559 from mass or Yeah? I live way out way out east to the Northore. 141 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,799 Okay, how about how about the rest of you guys. Are I'm 142 00:18:22,799 --> 00:18:26,160 the only New Hampshire in the band, you're the only one? Yeah? 143 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,079 I was originally from Salem, but I just moved to Manchester a year ago. 144 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,200 Oh okay, okay, very good, very good. It's interesting about 145 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,839 the strange Brew I've heard. I've heard that from other people too. It's 146 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,200 a that's a that that's one of the places that's really good to kind of 147 00:18:38,279 --> 00:18:44,240 meet and network with other musicians. Yeah. Yeah, and you guys have 148 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,839 a it's a relatively new project, it sounds like. But you've you've already 149 00:18:48,839 --> 00:18:52,079 got a whole bunch of well we'll we'll play more too as we go along, 150 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,160 But you've already got a bunch of great sound in studio tracks, one 151 00:18:56,319 --> 00:19:00,759 all home produced too.

It's official dot net, not dot com right right. 170 00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:14,440 We're dot org yet, but we hope to get there. Maybe at dot 171 00:20:14,519 --> 00:20:19,279 gov if we're lucky dot gov. There you go. Oh yeah, bass 172 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,039 players, tell me why do you like? Who do you like again? 173 00:20:22,039 --> 00:20:23,559 And why do you like them? I want to go back to that. 174 00:20:23,759 --> 00:20:30,119 Oh okay, So I'm a massive, massive Deadhead. Yeah. A friend 175 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,839 of mine got me into him almost ten years ago, and I really really 176 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:40,799 just love their sound. I just think what they do is amazing, especially 177 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,640 Phil Lesh. He's the bass player for the Dead and if you listen to 178 00:20:44,759 --> 00:20:49,720 his stuff, he plays things very melodically, and he doesn't attack a certain 179 00:20:49,799 --> 00:20:53,279 song, and he doesn't attack how the song is structured. He just kind 180 00:20:53,279 --> 00:20:56,799 of plays what he wants to and he plays and if you hone it in 181 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,680 and you just listen to his bass playing, it's really not a bass part. 182 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,640 Yet somehow, the way he layers in and the way he's able to 183 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:10,160 dive in and out of the rhythm and the melody, it's absolute insanity and 184 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,200 it somehow works with everything that's going on. Same with Jack Cassidy to a 185 00:21:14,279 --> 00:21:17,559 degree. He was the bass player for Jefferson Airplane, and he does a 186 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,440 very similar thing, especially if you listen to any of the live stuff that 187 00:21:19,519 --> 00:21:25,920 he played with Country Joe and the Fish or even Jefferson Airplane is kind of 188 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,039 all over the place and stuff. Yeah, I know what you mean. 189 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:33,039 I saw. I can't. I don't know about Phil Leash. I mean 190 00:21:33,079 --> 00:21:34,400 I know who he is, obviously, but I never listened to much Dad, 191 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,519 But I know what you mean about Jack Cassidy now that you bring it 192 00:21:37,599 --> 00:21:40,400 up. Yeah, yeah, I can. I can definitely hear that. 193 00:21:40,519 --> 00:21:42,119 Okay, Yeah, I was. I was curious. As a bass player, 194 00:21:42,319 --> 00:21:47,400 my holy trinity of like bass players is Phil Lesh, Jack Cassidy, 195 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,680 and John Paul Jones. Oh nice Jaul Jones. Those are my three major 196 00:21:51,759 --> 00:21:53,920 inspirations. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, Ryan as a bass player 197 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,200 does bring He has more of like a melodic style, which like from the 198 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,759 rhythm ppe active like from the drummer. It opens up like different opportunities to 199 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,720 kind of like make the beat a little more interesting. Yeah. So it's 200 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,759 a cool dynamic. They're both in love with each other. They really love 201 00:22:11,799 --> 00:22:15,039 each other a lot. We have this like telepathic thing where I can just 202 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,440 we're in the middle of a jam or a song, and I can just 203 00:22:18,519 --> 00:22:21,599 look at him and he knows exactly what I'm thinking, Yeah, and he 204 00:22:21,759 --> 00:22:23,640 just brings it right there, and it's the thing of magic. It's the 205 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:30,000 universal unspoken relationship between the bassis and the drummer. Yea where it comes about. 206 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,960 Yeah, that's awesome, very good, very good. Now, what 207 00:22:33,039 --> 00:22:34,880 about in terms of songwriting, you guys all write together or how does that 208 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,920 work. It's a little funny. We kind of all write songs separately, 209 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,880 so we end up with a pretty wide range of sounds. Like if you 210 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,200 listen to the difference between Left Turn and Halifax Blues, it's it's very very 211 00:22:48,279 --> 00:22:53,559 different. I think you two, Sean and Kyle wrote Halifax Blues together and 212 00:22:53,599 --> 00:22:56,400 then kind of brought it to the rest of us and we made our parts 213 00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,039 for it. And Left Turn I wrote just a RIF four and send it 214 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,359 off to Kyle and Sean, and next thing we knew we had a song. 215 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,920 So we don't really have a set process, I don't think. Yeah, 216 00:23:07,039 --> 00:23:11,279 it's it's a very collaborative process. So kind of how it works is 217 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:17,519 somebody comes up with a song idea, be it Jack or Kyle and Sean 218 00:23:17,839 --> 00:23:22,240 or just Sean, Kyle, whatever, Charlie, even myself, and we 219 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,880 get together when we practice and we just say, hey, here's a song 220 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,440 idea, here are the chords, and we just kind of build it up 221 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,960 from there. Okay. That's one thing I really like is I like having 222 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,200 that collaborative process instead of somebody just writing a song and saying, hey, 223 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,119 here's how it needs to be. I like the collaboration. Yeah. Yeah. 224 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:44,200 I have a hunch too that do these change live sometimes because it seems 225 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,279 like the style of what you're doing, you know, you've got room to 226 00:23:47,319 --> 00:23:49,519 breathe, it's built around improv Yeah. Yeah, I was going to say 227 00:23:49,559 --> 00:23:53,359 that's another That's another facet to the songwriting is a lot of times we'll just 228 00:23:53,599 --> 00:23:57,079 have a rehearsal and do a warm up jam and I'll just kind of make 229 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:02,079 something up. We do two of those a week. That's roughly four new 230 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,039 songs a week. Wow. Yeah, So how many songs do you guys 231 00:24:04,079 --> 00:24:12,039 have currently? We have four hundred and sixty. Well, each of them 232 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:18,200 are at different stage with all the ideas, So like somebody gets an idea, 233 00:24:18,279 --> 00:24:21,720 even if it's like a five second little thing. You send it to 234 00:24:21,759 --> 00:24:25,160 Sean, he catalogs it, and then we go back and we rephrase them 235 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,160 and work on them together, bring them to the whole band, and then 236 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,880 everyone kind of gets a chance to write on it. Yeah. Yeah, 237 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,599 it's pretty. Best thing about having Sewn in the band for us is his 238 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:42,400 uh yeah, this is his cataloging ability, because he will note down every 239 00:24:42,559 --> 00:24:48,359 single little riff idea for its and it all gets neatly organized in our dropbox. 240 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,400 So we could be able to even it's something like back four months ago 241 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:57,039 and it was just like a random get together, he'll still have a little 242 00:24:57,079 --> 00:25:00,359 note for it. We can go back and revisit it. It can it 243 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,480 can be. It can be as simple as just a song title that doesn't 244 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,519 have a lyric, or that doesn't have any lyrics, or doesn't even have 245 00:25:07,599 --> 00:25:10,880 any chords, and it goes and the idea is folder. Yeah. Oh 246 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,640 that's good. It's good. Good to have somebody who's super organized. Can 247 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,880 that's the saving grace? Yeah. Yeah. It might be a freak of 248 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:22,440 nature, as Ryan often says, but you know it keeps us organized. 249 00:25:22,559 --> 00:25:25,559 Yeah, yeah, no, that's good. That's important. We should since 250 00:25:25,599 --> 00:25:27,759 we were talking about it, we should play this track Halifax Blues. So 251 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,960 this is the other one that was recorded at the studio that you work at. 252 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:40,680 Any any any story behind the song or is there? Kyle and I 253 00:25:40,799 --> 00:25:44,160 were just sitting in my bedroom one day and he goes, wow, you 254 00:25:44,279 --> 00:25:48,119 can really make a song with anything, and he starts playing this this weird 255 00:25:48,279 --> 00:25:53,240 uh whatever theory you want to attached to. He started playing that, and 256 00:25:53,319 --> 00:25:56,720 then all of a sudden, I start playing a one to five under that, 257 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,480 and it's like, wow, I guess you're right. We can make 258 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,279 a song anything. That was the first song we released. Yeah, but 259 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,640 why Halifax Blues? What's the significance or is there any right? Yeah, 260 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:12,559 I couldn't tell you that. Just yeah, that was one that just kind 261 00:26:12,599 --> 00:26:17,279 of spawned. We don't write this, we don't just transmit them. Yeah, 262 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,279 they kind of sometimes get delivered to us straight into our brains like radio 263 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,279 towers. Exactly. Alright, I like it. The song storks brought that 264 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:33,480 one. I think is a divine delivery. Very title. There we go. 265 00:26:33,599 --> 00:26:37,079 That's another one. There you go. The idea is folder put the 266 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,799 folder, Yeah, alright, in it down as we speak. Well, 267 00:26:38,839 --> 00:26:41,160 now we definitely have to listen to this all right, let's check this out. 268 00:26:41,279 --> 00:27:26,039 This is Halifax Blues. The band is the Whole Loaf. Love the 269 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:33,559 top act who rolls around down cigarettes fo drowning me. How I got the 270 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:40,720 windows down to let it all out and wearing Baba suits. I can't let 271 00:27:40,839 --> 00:28:25,079 on the facts. Please run the top of dog who wants to love? 272 00:28:25,599 --> 00:28:30,119 When I see him? Pretty lady can help myself, don't you got me 273 00:28:30,279 --> 00:28:36,599 rolling a round and chasing my tail and wearing dub my doors. I got 274 00:28:37,119 --> 00:29:21,920 the elephants please. That is Halifax Blues. The band is the Whole Loaf, 275 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,160 and we have the whole Loaf with us in studio, literally the entire 276 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,640 band. Hey, where's the name come from? By the way, Jean, 277 00:29:29,119 --> 00:29:33,240 there's got to be a story behind the name. Yeah. I just 278 00:29:33,319 --> 00:29:36,519 woke up one morning and it was in my head and I thought to myself, 279 00:29:36,599 --> 00:29:41,319 Wow, See when when I was looking for all the musicians before I 280 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,799 met these guys, I thought, well, I want to start a band 281 00:29:45,079 --> 00:29:48,559 that does everything. I want to have no restrictions. I want everybody to 282 00:29:48,599 --> 00:29:53,519 play what they want the way they want, and I want everyone to compromise 283 00:29:55,119 --> 00:29:57,039 rather than people say no. I don't want to do that, so we 284 00:29:57,119 --> 00:30:00,119 can't do that. So I don't know, I just kind of woke up 285 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,440 one morning and it was in my head. I'm like, wow, the 286 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,519 whole loaf, the whole spectrum, spectrum of music. And uh, you 287 00:30:07,599 --> 00:30:11,400 know, at first everybody hated it. They're like no, no, what 288 00:30:11,839 --> 00:30:17,359 is that. Then it slowly grew on everyone and they're like, yeah, 289 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,119 okay. So I was saying like, yeah, just let it, let 290 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:22,319 it sit for a little bit and if we come up with anything better, 291 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,839 we'll take that. And we never did, so it stuck. It did. 292 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,079 Did you did you think about consider some other name? I love rejected 293 00:30:30,119 --> 00:30:33,279 band names. Did you have other names that you were thinking about? Or 294 00:30:36,279 --> 00:30:37,920 I don't. I don't really know that we had any that stuck. I 295 00:30:38,079 --> 00:30:45,160 know we had a side project with when I was one of the band, 296 00:30:45,279 --> 00:30:47,839 one of the cover bands I was in broke Up. So I took some 297 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:52,119 of these guys from the very beginning to you know, kind of fill in 298 00:30:52,279 --> 00:30:56,960 for one of the shows and it was us three yeah, and the band 299 00:30:56,039 --> 00:31:00,640 name was called Zeke and the Zamboni's Oh that's cool. There was also oh 300 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:06,720 sorry no, I was just going to say as for our rejected band names. 301 00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:08,680 I don't know that there were any that we remember. Yeah, on 302 00:31:08,799 --> 00:31:12,480 a personal note, like by the time I joined the band, name was 303 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,880 already kind of there. Yeah, Like, as I forget who said it 304 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,400 earlier, I want to say it was Kyle, Who's like they basically just 305 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,640 stole me. They just picked me up and said, yep, you're with 306 00:31:21,759 --> 00:31:23,720 us, and I said, all right, I guess. So. Yeah, 307 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,759 we convinced him to come to a practice and after a couple of songs, 308 00:31:26,799 --> 00:31:29,759 we're like, yeah, you're the guy. Well, well you're the 309 00:31:29,839 --> 00:31:34,480 guy, time out, time out. How it actually happened was Kyle messaged 310 00:31:34,519 --> 00:31:37,039 me. We had played at the Brew a couple of times, and he 311 00:31:37,119 --> 00:31:41,160 said, you know, we're looking shopping around for a bass player. Would 312 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,559 you be interested in filling in if we have any shows coming up? And 313 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,000 I said, yeah, sure, I don't mind filling in. I'm not 314 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,599 really in any projects, like let me know. He's like he's like, 315 00:31:51,599 --> 00:31:55,119 all right, great, solid. Well, after a while, you know, 316 00:31:55,519 --> 00:31:56,319 they said, hey, we have a gig coming up. Do you 317 00:31:56,359 --> 00:32:00,200 want to fill in? And I said yeah. So I came through for 318 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,640 a few practices to practice for the gig and then eventually it was just like, 319 00:32:02,799 --> 00:32:06,680 yep, you're the guy we want. You're right. Yeah, So 320 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,160 that's nice when you know, when it's organic like that. Yeah, then 321 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,000 it's when when it's easy to put a band together like that, then you 322 00:32:13,079 --> 00:32:16,599 know you've really got something, you know well, And yeah, my introduction 323 00:32:16,759 --> 00:32:22,279 story to these two over here, for it's like, I'm not really a 324 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:28,000 big fake guy, but the amount of pieces that had to go together in 325 00:32:28,279 --> 00:32:35,559 order to make this introduction happen was super random. Really. It was at 326 00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:40,720 the time I was in another college band called Night Visions, and we had 327 00:32:40,799 --> 00:32:46,279 hosted a show in our college apartment basement at some point, and at the 328 00:32:46,359 --> 00:32:53,799 time one of was my brothers, i'd say, a friend from middle school 329 00:32:54,160 --> 00:33:00,400 his name was Brenner, happened to see that I was a drummer and like 330 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:05,319 just turd through the grape vine for that I was able to play drums or 331 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:12,680 and then it was a random January day where it's I had never really interacted 332 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,640 with him much, but he just like hit me up on Snapchat out of 333 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,519 the blue, just like, Hey, I was looking to start up a 334 00:33:19,759 --> 00:33:22,440 new project, would you be interested to go play drums on it? And 335 00:33:23,079 --> 00:33:29,759 at the time for it's I was like, I love playing with my college 336 00:33:29,799 --> 00:33:34,160 band, but also like I was open to experimenting with new styles. Yeah, 337 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:40,519 and like my college band was more of a I wouldn't say like scripted, 338 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:45,160 but more of that, Like it's kind of like a set party. 339 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:49,279 Were playing with these guys. It was like the first time I played with 340 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:53,359 them at Dargan Hall, we just went off on a whole, like twenty 341 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:58,680 minute jam session for just making stuff up. We went on a journey first. 342 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:00,799 The first song he jammed out together it is called lock Me in the 343 00:34:00,839 --> 00:34:07,880 Cupboard, their first original jam. And it's kind of funny because that first 344 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,800 session was January February twenty fourth of twenty twenty three. Do you know the 345 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:17,079 time too, Probably around six o'clock And I was definitely wearing this jacket. 346 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:22,159 Wow, all right, Yeah, for context, this is Sean's outfit every 347 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:27,760 day, all the time. He changed my shirt. Yeah, it's a 348 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,719 good look every once in a while. Excuse me, it's too bad that 349 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:35,599 people can't see it. You look like you stepped out of the time the 350 00:34:35,679 --> 00:34:40,000 listeners where Sean looks like he was just born in the wrong generation traveler straight 351 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:44,519 out of the sixties right right. Well, actually the shirt though, is 352 00:34:44,599 --> 00:34:50,800 not that unlike Ryan's shirt there just no just see, you guys can have 353 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:57,519 matching jackets. Then we could go full sixties, get the haircuts us Sean 354 00:34:57,559 --> 00:35:01,599 and the Crowleys. Now do you guys play out a lot? You are 355 00:35:01,639 --> 00:35:06,559 you playing out every week or how often we wish? Yeah? Well, 356 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,320 actually in May we are playing every weekend for the most part. Yeah. 357 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:14,800 It comes in births. Yeah. So we have three shows coming up in 358 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:20,039 May. We have a show May fourth at Sammy's Patio down in Revere. 359 00:35:20,519 --> 00:35:23,159 Then the weekend after on May eleventh, we're playing at Strange Brew Tavern home 360 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:28,360 Turf. And then the weekend after that, on May eighteenth, we're opening 361 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,360 porch Fest down in Malden, Okay. Now, what is that porch Fest? 362 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,880 Is that a big multi day thing. No, it's just a small 363 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,119 one day festival. Starts at noon. We'll be playing noon to one. 364 00:35:40,119 --> 00:35:45,480 It's put on by the Porch Juke Joint down in Malden Medford area and they 365 00:35:45,559 --> 00:35:49,079 set it up outside and it's kind of a free event for the public. 366 00:35:49,159 --> 00:35:52,239 They actually partner with the City of Malden to put it on. Oh cool, 367 00:35:52,679 --> 00:35:57,480 cool, very cool. Do you guys ever, do you ever do 368 00:35:57,519 --> 00:36:00,840 anything acoustic or is it always electric? It seems like your music would you 369 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:04,880 know you could? You could probably play in a lot of different configurations. 370 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,639 I'm the big acoustic guy over here. I mean, we love to play 371 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,719 some hog blues. That's a that's a genre we created where we get some 372 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:15,280 acoustic guitars and we just kind of have some fun. Well, it's less 373 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:20,440 of a genre and more of our unique style. He knows all the all 374 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,079 the cool chords, and I kind of just pick out melodies by ear. 375 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:28,000 Yeah. John plays strictly from the ear. He has no idea what music 376 00:36:28,039 --> 00:36:30,519 theory is, but it's actually incredible, Like he listens to so much music, 377 00:36:30,599 --> 00:36:34,039 so he just picks it up by ear, and I'm the opposite. 378 00:36:34,079 --> 00:36:37,000 I like to study. I teach guitar too. It's great. I like 379 00:36:37,079 --> 00:36:38,880 to study all that. So it kind of works very well when we play 380 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:43,280 together. Yeah, because I could do something that's decently cool, and then 381 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,480 he could tell me what it is that I did, and then I'll be 382 00:36:45,559 --> 00:36:50,320 like, oh, yeah, yeah, okay, I can relate to Like 383 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,239 I don't know any theory I can, so I can I can relate I 384 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,519 I also I played by ear yeah, and I could never understand. But 385 00:36:55,559 --> 00:36:59,559 I'm not good at math, and I think that's I think that's why because 386 00:36:59,599 --> 00:37:01,760 it is is math, right, I mean basically like math. Yeah yeah? 387 00:37:04,519 --> 00:37:06,880 And how long do you guys play when you when you do a set, 388 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,639 because I would imagine again with these songs, you know you can you 389 00:37:08,679 --> 00:37:10,559 can kind of open them up and let them breathe. Do you do you 390 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:16,440 have you done like multi hour sets or so? Typically when we are the 391 00:37:16,639 --> 00:37:21,360 only band playing that night. So for example, at Strange Brew, the 392 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,400 last gig we had at Strange Brew February fifteenth, we were the only band 393 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:29,000 there. Same with the gig coming up on May eleventh. We usually play 394 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,719 about three hours. Wow, yeah, no kidding. I play a full 395 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:35,480 three hour set, two sets with like a fifteen to twenty minute break in 396 00:37:35,519 --> 00:37:38,519 between. Yeah. Yeah, oh that's really good. Is it all originals? 397 00:37:38,559 --> 00:37:42,199 Do you do any do you throw some covers in there? Or there's 398 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,079 plenty of covers? Yeah? Are there? We we like our covers. 399 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:49,199 Yeah yeah. You know some of these guys keep saying like, oh, 400 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,320 well, we can't be at cover bands. You know, we got to 401 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,719 do originals. And I always keep saying there's way too many good songs out 402 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:58,639 there to not play well. It's kind of goes back to what Sean was 403 00:37:58,639 --> 00:38:01,679 saying about the idea behind the whole Loaf name for in, just like our 404 00:38:02,039 --> 00:38:07,559 inclusive vibe that we have, it's we still want to be able to mix 405 00:38:07,679 --> 00:38:09,679 in for those covers, right as well as the originals. Yeah, yeah, 406 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:14,280 no, that makes sense. And is it challenging with five of you 407 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,320 in in the band? Is it? Is it challenging in terms of scheduling 408 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:22,719 like getting together for rehearsals and booking shows and whatnot? Is that actually all 409 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,199 We all chip in a little bit on on getting shows, doing all kind 410 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:29,360 of all that kind of work. But we have set days where we practice. 411 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,360 Yep, I wouldn't say it's too much of a struggle. We rehearsed 412 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:37,239 twice a week consistently. If someone is out one of those days, typically 413 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,000 the rest of the guys will do something, whether it's recording or rehearsal with 414 00:38:40,079 --> 00:38:45,719 one less person. And then as for shows, those usually work out pretty 415 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:49,519 good too. Yeah good. And it goes back to acoustic thing too, 416 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:54,440 Like we're hosting an open jam in Nashua and it's just going to be the 417 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,920 two of us meet and Kyle at the Kaba Bar. Yep, oh, 418 00:38:58,119 --> 00:39:00,280 very good. Well, when it comes to gig for it's we don't. 419 00:39:00,679 --> 00:39:05,639 I would say, we don't operate in. Let's find a day convenient for 420 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,360 us and then we'll figure out our schedule. It's more we get offered today 421 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:14,320 and we'll cancel everything else that's going off to go. Yeah, yes, 422 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,280 that is accurate. There you go, there you go. Oh and how 423 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:21,400 did you how did you get in? We we ended up not Jenny and 424 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:22,920 I weren't able to stay for your set that night. But you guys played 425 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:27,880 at the Midnight I never got the name right, Midnight Creators Collected, Midnight 426 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,639 Creators Collective. Thank you. Yeah, Eleanor is amazing. She's she's doing 427 00:39:30,679 --> 00:39:34,639 a great job with that. But how did you guys get involved with that? 428 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:39,800 With with playing that uh, that show? We didn't play that show. 429 00:39:40,679 --> 00:39:44,199 We didn't play that show. We were just there. We got invited. 430 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:45,239 Oh I thought you guys played that night. No, no, no, 431 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:50,239 no, just visiting. We got offered. It was all because of 432 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,800 Greg He I honestly don't know his last name. I wish I did, 433 00:39:54,360 --> 00:40:01,000 but he is the proprietor of the Kava Bar down in Ashua Rude Awakening Kaba 434 00:40:01,039 --> 00:40:04,639 Bar. Check it out.

And then another friend of 442 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:45,679 ours who's actually he takes lessons from Kyle Mike McDowell offered sent us like a 443 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:49,519 Facebook thing inviting us to it, and I said, hey, we should 444 00:40:49,559 --> 00:40:52,159 go check it out.

Sean Crawley, Sean 494 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:07,280 Crawley, everyone, I'm here all day. Actually I'm here for the next 495 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:12,159 ten minutes. Are you Are you serious about the DNS settings. I'm a 496 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,239 web designer, so I'm just curious. I'm yeah the geek and me is 497 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:20,000 like, what Google domains? Just switch the Squarespace and our site doesn't come 498 00:51:20,079 --> 00:51:22,400 up if you don't put the WWW. Really yeah, I still have to 499 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,239 look into that. I just haven't had the time. Weird, Yeah, 500 00:51:27,079 --> 00:51:30,519 but uh Google. Know what's funny about it is because anybody who knows me 501 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:36,760 knows so I always cringe when I hear people say the WWW, like I 502 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:38,639 hear it in radio ads still in the year twenty twenty four, and I'm 503 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:42,719 like why. And I've been saying that for twenty years, so I was 504 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,280 kind of thinking that when you were saying it, But now that you've explained 505 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:47,239 why you have to do that, it makes sense. But it's also like, 506 00:51:47,679 --> 00:51:52,920 wow, that's so weird. Yeah, I can I have Google to 507 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,840 think. Wow, Well, I'm sorry to hear that. Yeah, I 508 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,960 have a couple of minutes during the day. John's really broken up about it. 509 00:52:00,119 --> 00:52:04,039 Yeah, yeah, he hasn't slept in days. Oh, it would 510 00:52:04,079 --> 00:52:07,639 frust It would frustrate me to no end. I'd be like, I wouldn't 511 00:52:07,679 --> 00:52:10,800 sleep ever again until I hadn't figured out I'd be so I'd be so upset. 512 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,719 It's a one who hasn't written a song about it yet, to be 513 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:19,639 honest. Oh, I don't start anyway. Our other socials besides the Whole 514 00:52:19,679 --> 00:52:24,639 Loaf dot net, you could find us on Instagram and TikTok at the dot 515 00:52:25,119 --> 00:52:30,360 Whole Loaf. That's it. Facebook, I believe is the Whole Loaf. 516 00:52:30,559 --> 00:52:32,840 Ryan can probably confirm that for me. That would be confirmed. Yes, 517 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:37,559 YouTube as well as The Whole Loaf, and I don't know what else we 518 00:52:37,679 --> 00:52:42,239 have. We're on Spotify, we have Halifax Blues and Left Turnout, and 519 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,679 we'll be releasing some more music shortly. Yeah, it's all the music are 520 00:52:46,119 --> 00:52:51,639 is on all major streaming services far as we use one of those distribution services 521 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,920 for it. Make sure that all the songs get released everywhere. Excellent more, 522 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:59,280 I would say, if you'd have to pick one to go to for 523 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,519 it's the instam and our bio. We have a link tree that will redirect 524 00:53:02,599 --> 00:53:07,679 you to all of our other associated websites, So that's probably the easiest way 525 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:12,280 to get to know the Whole Loaf. More importantly, too, if you 526 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,960 go to our website and you go under I want to say it's media, 527 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:22,679 and you go on archive Media Archive sessions, it is I'm looking at it. 528 00:53:22,679 --> 00:53:25,920 I'm looking at it right now. If you go to Media Archives sessions, 529 00:53:27,599 --> 00:53:31,320 that's pretty much everything we've ever done, every practice, every practice, 530 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:36,760 every gig, everything. We record everything we've ever done. So you can 531 00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:39,840 scroll through, pick a random thing and you can see everything that we play 532 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:44,159 during that practice or what have you, gig whatever. Yeah, yeah, 533 00:53:44,679 --> 00:53:52,840 actually sorry, it's it's it's recordings, not sessions, so it's media radio 534 00:53:53,159 --> 00:53:58,519 and Sean. How many recordings did we are we at? Now? Oh? 535 00:53:58,599 --> 00:54:01,000 Dear god. So as I said, we're at four hundred and sixty 536 00:54:01,039 --> 00:54:07,960 eight originals and the recordings themselves covers originals. All the session stuff is well 537 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:10,360 over a thousand. I lost track. Yeah, I'm looking at the page. 538 00:54:10,519 --> 00:54:15,760 Yeah, it's got Each one has the date rehearsal at Charlie's house, 539 00:54:16,679 --> 00:54:21,599 rehearsal at Kyle's house. Yeah. Wow, I'm a this is cool. 540 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,519 It's really cool to do that, and then if you click into the date, 541 00:54:24,679 --> 00:54:28,079 it gives you the set list, and then if you click each song 542 00:54:28,159 --> 00:54:30,480 in the set list, it will bring you to a Google page to play 543 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:32,239 it. Oh my god. Wow. So you can hear all of our 544 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:37,360 music for free on our website. W so not only can you see the 545 00:54:37,639 --> 00:54:43,239 evolution of how songs develop over time, but we also include h what they're 546 00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,159 called like intermission snippets, but also just some of the fun like banter moments. 547 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:50,800 Yeah, we have in practice those areas. Oh that's awesome. No, 548 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:52,000 good for you guys, Good for you for doing that. Thank you. 549 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:57,320 I went to the the reason, I pulled up the website on the 550 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,119 browsers. I was like, I gotta test this, and su I typed 551 00:55:00,159 --> 00:55:04,119 in the whole loaf dot net. Nothing happened, it said not secure or 552 00:55:04,159 --> 00:55:07,159 something. I put in the WWW, and it took me right to it. 553 00:55:07,519 --> 00:55:09,840 Yeah, I'm just I just have to go in and set up a 554 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:15,239 redirect. But we don't even have a Squarespace account yet, so I'm gonna 555 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:19,639 have to create that to access the domain again and then make the edits do 556 00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:22,559 some surgery. That's crazy that you have to do that, And I've been 557 00:55:22,559 --> 00:55:24,440 putting it off because I want to wait until I have time to actually sit 558 00:55:24,519 --> 00:55:30,800 down and go through all of the I'm essentially going to be exploring a completely 559 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:32,920 new platform from scratch, so I want to make sure I do it thoroughly 560 00:55:34,079 --> 00:55:36,880 rather than yeah, I can relate to that because I'm the same way with 561 00:55:37,039 --> 00:55:38,920 stuff like that. It's like, I'll have something that I really want to 562 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,400 do, like something like this would be driving me nuts, But at the 563 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:45,280 same time, it's like, but I need to find time where I can 564 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:50,599 just sit uninterrupted for what could potentially be several hours. And so it's that 565 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:52,079 battle that goes on in my mind. It's like, Oh, I really 566 00:55:52,119 --> 00:55:55,039 got to get this done because this is killing me. But I got to 567 00:55:55,039 --> 00:55:58,760 wait for a time when I can really dig into it because I know it's 568 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,840 going to be so I can I can relate and instead of just going to 569 00:56:02,559 --> 00:56:07,079 like a provider that could do it for us, or it's I think we 570 00:56:07,199 --> 00:56:12,119 want to take the time to get the experience of like figuring out how all 571 00:56:12,199 --> 00:56:16,199 these pieces come together. And we also have an idea too, it's we're 572 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:22,559 also interested in starting up a record label to records, So being able to 573 00:56:22,639 --> 00:56:28,679 have all these tools and our disposal would be cool to have for when we 574 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:31,719 venture. Yeah, definitely, what's it gonna be called? Unslice mind? 575 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:40,480 Well sliced right right, gotcha? There's no point in putting it back together, 576 00:56:42,639 --> 00:56:45,159 I gotcha. We just have a couple we'll hear a little bit of 577 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:52,199 a should we do black and white radio and white? I don't know why 578 00:56:52,199 --> 00:56:54,719 I said black and white radio? Obviously it's just black and white. Want 579 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:59,000 you want to do our garage floors? Yeah? Well this is going to 580 00:56:59,039 --> 00:57:04,039 be our next next single state yet but this is it and the B side 581 00:57:04,119 --> 00:57:07,239 is going to be fullsome Prison Blues. Oh no kidding. One is by 582 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:12,599 Jack Codges. Very cool. I didn't write fullsome Prison right right right. 583 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:16,800 Anybody's wondering. I got to mention that one's a cover. You didn't tell 584 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:22,599 me that. How long has this been going on? Well, guys, 585 00:57:22,719 --> 00:57:25,920 thank you so much.
