et cetera. Today is Saturday, December seven, twenty twenty four.
Welcome everybody. We have a very busy show for you.
Before we get into that, though, just a quick explanation
of what I played to open the show. So if
you're not a Kiss fan, you probably have no idea
what that was. If you are a Kiss fan, you
do that is. That is a version of the song
turn on the Night from their nineteen eighty seven album
Crazy Nights. This YouTuber, Frankenstein Creations took the original version
of that song and remixed it and basically stripped out
the keyboards. And I love when I find anything like
that online. Kiss is my favorite band, and my one
complaint about that particular album is I never liked the keyboards.
It's the only album where there really was a lot
of synth in the mix along with the guitars, but
I remember having a con station with a friend of
mine in school when I was a kid, and I
remember saying, you know, let bon Jovi be bon Jovi.
I need Kiss to be kiss. I don't understand why
the synthesizer in these songs, but you know it was
it was a time when that was common. But anyway,
so Frankenstein Creations they took the keyboards out of that
song and remixed it, and I just love it. I
love the new version. But I'm always like that. I generally,
really my entire life, nothing against keyboards, but in rock music,
I'd rather, you know, take out the keyboards and turn
up the guitars, you know what I mean. That's that's me,
and that's a lot of people because the complaint that
I had about that one album is the same complaint
that most Kiss fans have about that one album. The
songs are really strong, but why do you need all
this keyboard? And like I said, this is really the
only album where they did that. About maybe a year ago,
there was a box set that came out of Black
Sabbath of the the Tony Martin era of Black Sabbath,
and only diehard Black Sabbath fans know what I'm talking about,
because you know, if you're someone who's not necessarily a
big fan, but obviously everyone knows Black Sabbath, you know,
to you, when you think of lead singers of Black Sabbath,
you think of Ozzy Osbourne, you think of Ronnie James Dio,
But they actually had several others along the way, but
Tony Martin of the of all the people who sang
for Sabbath, because for a long time it was a
revolving door, the Tony Martin era is probably the most
dominant in terms of output. Well, actually, Tony Martin, in fact,
sang on more Black Sabbath albums than Ronnie James Dio did,
so his contributions to the band were large. And they
had put out a box set of completely remixed and
remastered all the Tony Martin era albums of Black Sabbath.
And my favorite Black Sabbath song is from one of
those albums. In fact, it's it's the title track from
the album Forbidden, which came out in ninety four, and
I remember going on YouTube. I didn't buy the box set,
but I went on YouTube and I found the remixed
and remastered version of Forbidden. They completely all they did
was take the keyboards out. That's basically all Tony Iomi
did when he remixed it, just took the keyboards completely
out of it and turned the guitars up. Oh it
sounded amazing, So you just don't need all those synthesizers.
But it was a product of the eighties that you know,
kind of carried over into the nineties in some cases.
But anyway, so I just really like that the remix
of turn on the Night by Kiss completely free of keyboards,
so you can really hear the guitars and everything. Let's see,
So we've got a big show for you today. Daniel
Shamroth is going to be skyping in from the UK
in just a couple of moments, so I'm going to
play his newest single, the home demo of Skyscraper really great,
and then we'll play another song at the end of
our conversation. Then in the second hour, we have Vero
g who's been on the show before. She's going to
be calling in. And then after that we have Dave
Strong who was on the show several months ago. He
has a brand new song with well Casey Darren, who
has been on the show several times it's Dave Strong
and Soda and if you're if you happen to be
watching online. By the way, you can see I'm wearing
my Soda shirt.
Speaker 1: So o t a h.
Speaker 5: The band that Casey Darren is in. They teamed up
to do a cover of a mighty Mighty Boston song
called this Time of Year. So we're going to play
that and we'll talk to Dave when he calls in
and then in the third hour. I'm really excited. Regals
a great band from the area. Love these guys. They
are going to be live in studio with us, and
I think they're going to come in and play, so
that will be very very cool. Jenny and I ran
into two of the guys we're playing at the Shaskiene
a few weeks ago, and just absolutely amazing. They's such
a such a great band. But let's go ahead and
play this and then when we come back after this song,
we should have Daniel Shamrock on Skype with us. But
this is this is called Skyscraper. This is the he's
calling it the home demo version. It's just a strip
down acoustic version of the song. But great songwriter and
I love his voice and this will be his first
time on the show, so we'll be getting to know him.
I check this out, Daniel Shamroth skyscraper, head up, pig.

Speaker 1: Is that you? I'm here? Yeah, can you hear me? Okay?
Speaker 5: Absolutely, absolutely, welcome to the program. I love that song.
Speaker 1: Oh cheers, Matt, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 5: Absolutely absolutely. By the way, where in the UK are you? Exactly?
Speaker 1: So I'm down in the southwest of England in the UK,
which is well, I'm actually in a place called Plymouth
at the moment, which is I think you've got a
place called Plymouth where you are?
Speaker 5: We we do, we have We have all kinds of uh,
especially in this part of the country, of course, we
have all kinds of cities with duplicate names. I'm in
Manchester for example, and of course.
Speaker 1: Exactly I was. I was on Google Maps having earlier.
It's like it's mad there's like Portsmouth, which we've got Portsmouth, Manchester, Yeah, Plymouth, Yeah,
you know New England obviously.
Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely absolutely. Uh well, so welcome to the show.
Tell me about the Tell me about these home demo songs,
because my understanding is from what I read, so these
are these have all been recorded before, but these are
new versions of them, kind of stripped down and acoustic.
Speaker 1: These are no these are just literally just home home demos,
oh okay, bedroom recordings. So so that that that song there, Skyscraper,
I recorded that with a friend of mine just in
his bedroom set up a few years ago, oh okay,
and I forgot all about it and he found it
on his laptop one night when we were drunk. He
was like, oh, I found this song. I was like,
this actually sounds pretty cool. So I sent it to
my label and they were like, they were like, they
loved it and they just wanted to put it straight out.
So we've we've been putting out as like a series
of just demo recordings. Oh but earlier this year, I
recorded a record with Grammy winning producer called Guy Massey,
which was a which is a really good experience. He's
recorded like he was at Abbey Road for ten years
that he's worked with like on Beatles records, and he
worked with Oasis and some really big you know, some
big artists, So that was that was amazing. But yeah,
we've just been kind of going with the kind of
homemade home demos the last few releases, and it seems
to be going down really well. People really like it.
Speaker 5: I think, no they sound incredible. I'm actually kind of
stunned when you say that you had recorded that song
and then you kind of forgot about it, because it's
so good. It's like, how do you forget about it?
But that's amazing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I write, I write lots of songs, so I
just kind of, yeah, I've kind of always written lots
of songs and then yeah, I've just kind of forgotten
about those ones. But yeah. I send it to Scott,
who I worked with at the label, and he was like,
we got to put this out. This is great.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So yeah, I'm glad. I'm glad we I'm glad
we found it that drunken night.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no doubt, no doubt. Yeah, It's something we talk
about a lot on the show. It's remarkable to live
in a time where there's so many different ways that
you can record, and yeah, you can do something like
like you said, just you know, recording something in somebody's
bedroom and have it, you know, just come out so
great and then and then be able to put it
out and it just sounds you know, when you have
something that sounds like it could have been recorded that way,
or it could have been recorded in a million dollar studio.
You don't know the difference exactly.
Speaker 1: I mean that there's subtle, subtle differences that you hear.
I mean the acoustic the record I recorded earlier this year,
and that was in a big studio in London, and
you know, we put some live strings on it and
it had so few it's quite an acoustic record, but
it's got a few touches to it, so you can
sort of subtly hear the differences. Whereas but yeah, there's
not a huge difference in a way. You know, like
and what I'm doing would just be these home demos
because it's just me and a guitar and a voice.
You know, there's there's not that much production involved. Really,
it's just if you get the vocals sounding nice, get
the guitar sounding level, you know you're away.
Speaker 5: You know absolutely. Are there more of these coming or
have you released?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we literally just released a new another home demo yesterday.
I'm releasing like one one track a month. Oh okay,
I can find you can you can find these all
on my Spotify. If you go to Daniel Shamrock on Spotify,
you'll you'll hear you'll find all of these or I
released a song yesterday called sol on Fire, and then
we're going to be releasing yeah, every every every month
going into next year. So yeah, keep an eye out
if you want to hear some more music.
Speaker 5: I'm glad you mentioned that Soul on Fire. Well, I
do have it in front of me here. We'll actually
play that when we and the segment.
Speaker 1: What's that wicked? Thank you very much?
Speaker 5: Absolutely no, no, glad to do it. Yeah, no, I
was going to play I was going to play something
of yours at the end, and that's that's perfect since
it just came out. How many how many more of
these do you have? You say, so you're releasing one
a month, How many more do you have or do
you even know yet? Are you still finding? Are you
still finding things?
Speaker 1: I've got a few more from this from this session
that we did a few years ago. Yeah, So I'm
going to be releasing a few more of these, and
then I'm going back into the studio early next year
and I'll record some some I've allay new stuff that
I want to want to record, so I'll be releasing
lots of new music. So yeah, there's plenty plenty more
where that came from.
Speaker 5: Excellent excellent. I'm curious about influences, especially in terms of
not only your songwriting, but you're singing. I love your
voice and you've you've got one of those voices, you know.
You You kind of remind me a little bit of
some different people, but I can't quite pin it down.
I can't think of anyone who sounded exactly.
Speaker 1: But I was going to say, who do I remind
you of? Because I find that interesting?
Speaker 14: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Well, actually, oh what the hell? The guy from I
can't I can't remember his name, but the singer from
the band America. Are you familiar with that band?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, I know I know them.
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah you kind of you kind
of remind me of him. I cannot remember his name, unfortunately,
but it's in the it's in the back of my brain.
But yeah, I was thinking about that. Yeah, yeah, But
like who who's a big influence on you?
Speaker 13: So?
Speaker 1: I grew up over here in the UK with the
like britpop in the nineties, so it was all kind
of Oasis and Blur and yeah, those kind of English
britpop bands. But also so that was a big influence.
Oasis where influence on me, but also kind of sixties
bands like Beatles and you know, the Stones and the
Kinks and all those kind of bands, and then lots
of singer songwriters you know, massively into like Neil Young,
Bob Dylan, you know, all those kind of guys. Just
people that sit you know, you can do something with
a guitar, just guitar and a vocal and a song.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 1: I've always loved that kind of simplistic approach, you know. Yeah,
so yeah, all that kind of stuff. Really loads of stuff.
Tom Petty, I love, I love Tom Petty. I was
listening to I was watching the Tom Petty documentary a
few nights ago, the one about what you know you're
a Tom Petty fan.
Speaker 5: I am. I'm a casual fan. I don't you know.
I never had all the albums. But you have to understand.
You have to understand in America, if you turn on
any classic rock station and you listen for an hour,
you're going to hear a Tom Petty song.
Speaker 1: So you can hear Tom Pey song.
Speaker 15: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm a big Tom Petty fan. I love
some of his, like more sort of solo sticky stuff
as well. Yeah, so yeah, loads of stuff, loads of stuff,
but yeah, big big Beatles fans. That's one of my
kind of major loves musically, is you know all the
Lennon McCartney stuff, and yeah, yeah, I love all of that. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Now, based on what you've told me, I assume that
you started writing songs at a really young age. Am
I correct?
Speaker 1: Yeah, So basically I picked up the guitar when I
picked up my dad's guitar when I was probably ten
or something, ten or eleven, Yeah, and just as soon
as I could play like three chords, I just started
trying to write songs. And it was this really weird thing,
like I don't know where that came from. You know,
I've had no musical training or you know, no formal
classes or anything like that. But I just kind of
just felt compelled to kind of try and carve a
song out out of something, you know, and that's just
always stayed with me. So yeah, I just love I
love writing songs. That's just what I do.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: It's interesting what you say about how you don't even
know where it came from because you didn't have any
musical training, and I've I've kind of realized over the years.
I think I think music is one of the few
things well, actually, well, let me broadening it out a
little bit. I think creating art, yeah, more broadly is
one of those few things that can be just just
really sort of intuitive for some people. Because you know,
anything else that you try to do, you have to
kind of you know, there's some sort of training involved.
If you want to be a nuclear physicist, for example,
you know, that's not something you can intuitively figure out.
But when it comes to when it comes to music,
people people are some people are able to just kind
of intuitively figured it out, figure out how to play guitar,
figure out how to sing. Most of the vocalists I
talked to you never had any formal training. They just
they just can't do it.
Speaker 1: Definitely. I mean obviously you can. You can learn tricks,
and you can learn ways of doing things. I mean,
like I'm not I always say like, I'm not a
great musician. You know I'm I'm I'm a good steady
rhythm guitarist. You know I can. But for me, I
sit down with a guitar and that that's just a
tool so I can find a melody and come up
with the song. You know, That's what it's all about.
For me. Yeah, but yeah, I mean if you listen
to my songs when I was like fifteen, you know,
compared to now, there's been a progression. I'd like to
think there's been a big progression. You know. Oh I
am in the way I write lyrics, you know, just
with a bit more life experience, you know, that kind
of stuff, and you do hone your craft as you
get older, of course, but yeah, some of those, some
of those songs I wrote when I was like thirteen,
you know, I wouldn't really want anyone to play them
on the radio, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Right right?
Speaker 5: Well, so I am curious did any of that really
early material survive. I can't remember who it was, but
I had one guest on the show who had written
a song when he was like twelve years old, and
I asked him, do you still play that today? And
not expecting him to say yes, and he was like, yeah,
actually I do.
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, listen, any songs that I wrote
from that age have been hidden away, hidden in a
safe and locked away, and he has been thrown away.
Speaker 5: Do you remember the first song you ever wrote?
Speaker 1: You'll laugh about this. I can't believe I'm actually saying
this out loud, but yeah. So one of the first
songs I ever wrote was a song called The Guy
Upstairs as an Alien, and I can still yeah, I'm
not going to sing it for you now, but I
can still sort of remember the melody of that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know that, you know.
Speaker 1: But I was just I was just kind of learning
how to put words and you know, make things rhyme,
and just just learning the basics, you know. But yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's just been It's always been something that I've just
been curious about and loved, you know. Yeah, and that
never goes away, you know, and I think I'll be
tinkering around on the guitar, you know, into my old age.
You know. It's just something I absolutely love.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Is that what comes first for you when you write?
Is a melody on the guitar? Or do lyrics ever
come first?
Speaker 1: It comes in different ways, So yeah, sometimes sometimes it
all comes out in one go, like it all just
kind of falls out, and those are generally the best songs,
Like it just falls out fitlessly and it's like the chords,
the melody, all the changes and the breaks, it will
just kind of just comes out and we're going and
you've got to quickly grab a paper and pen and
just get it down. But then sometimes you've got to
really work at work at a song and chip away
at it, and you know what's what you know what
what what word rhymes with that? Or you know what
am I going to do on this after this chorus?
Or you know. So it works in different ways, but generally,
normally I'll kind of play a few chords and then
and then the melody will come in and it will
just kind of take on a life of its own.
But but yeah, I just love just grabbing something out
of the air. You start with nothing, and then suddenly
you've got this this song, you know, out of out
thin air almost and it's like a magical and magical experience, right,
I love it?
Speaker 12: Right?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Absolutely. Now, So tell me about what happens when you
play live? Do you Is it always just you solo?
Or do other musicians join you? Or how does that?
Or maybe you have a band?
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's for like, for the for the
last few years, I was playing in an indie band
called the Love Club Oh Okay, and we were actually
signed to we were signed to an American label actually
in LA and so yeah, that was kind of my thing.
It was my songs, but with a band, it was
kind of kind of like a slightly old country indie
kind of vibe. And that was all going really well,
and then we had a coronavirus lockdown down and that
kind of kind of blew everything out of the water
a bit. Yeah, but now I'm just kind of just
doing me and a guitar, just me going out and playing,
playing solo. I'm going to be doing some shows and
going into next year and maybe with a band as well,
just to kind of pad it out a bit. But
it's it's very stripped down, just mostly just me and a.
Speaker 5: Guitar, okay, okay, which is nice in a sense, right
because I mean, you know, being in a band is
great and all, but at least when it's just you
and a guitar, you know, it's certainly simplifive things. You've
got more there's more places you can play, and you
don't have to work around anyone else's schedule, and.
Speaker 1: So that's exactly yeah, Yeah, there's less people to fall
out with unless you start and start an argument with yourself,
you know exactly.
Speaker 5: I've played in a lot of bands, but I never
did a solo acoustic thing. So I've always been a
little bit you know, I've always wondered what that must
be like and the you know, the freedom that comes
with that.
Speaker 6: What did you say the name of what did you say?
Speaker 9: The name of the band?
Speaker 1: Was the Last que the Loft as in like up
in the Lost the Loft t Yeah, the Loft Club.
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, Now that is anything that you did with
that band? Is that available online?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all on That's all on Spotify, So you
can go and go and hear that as well. We
did a collaboration with Lisa Lobe if you know Lisa Lobe. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
we did a song. We did a song with her
actually called which is a song mind called Flicker, and
she put a verse on one of the songs and
that actually got onto the Billboard chart. So that was
a kind of a song that kind of did something
in America. Yeah, so you can you can go and
he hear that on Spotify.
Speaker 5: Oh, that's that's very cool. Do you have any plans
to get back to being in a band. I mean,
it sounds like the solo acoustic things working out pretty well.
Speaker 16: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm really enjoying doing what I'm doing at the moment,
to be honest, it's you know, I've got a really
good label that I work with here in the UK,
and and we just we just work really well together,
and you know, I get a song, I can record
record that, they put the record out and suddenly's out
on Spotfy and it's just it's just a nice, nice,
nice setup and it seemed to work really well. So yeah,
I'm kind of happy doing doing things as they are
at the moment. I'll probably put a little band together
to go and to do some of these songs next year,
as I said. But but yeah, yeah, I'm happy as
I am, I think.
Speaker 5: And then now, so you're working with Guy Massey. Has
that already begun or is that coming up?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 1: So that's that's the record. That's the record I did
earlier this year, earlier this year, so it's called so
that's that's when we recorded in London. So that's that
was called Major Companion and it's a six track EP. Yeah,
And I was I was talking about him earlier, so
guys kind of he's won two Grammy Awards. He's like, yeah,
he's remastered all the Beatles records and yeah, he's just
worked with like everybody, So that was like a really
cool experience for me to go and to go and
see how he works, you know, and being his in
his world. So that was Yeah, that was super cool. Yeah,
and we put we put some strings on a couple
of the couple of the tracks and we recorded in
a studio called conk In in London, which is belongs
to the Kinks. It's the Kinks Recording studio. So that
was that was a really cool experience.
Speaker 5: Oh wow, Oh that's extremely cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Is that intimidating at all working with somebody like guy Massey?
I mean that's you know, he's a heavy Yeah.
Speaker 1: I really thought it was going to be and then
I met him and he just got completely just put
put me at ease, like within seconds. He was just like, yeah,
come in, have a couple of you know, sit down
and chatting him. He's called his you know, Gold Records
on the Wall or whatever, you know, and I was like, whoa.
But he's just really down to earth, really lovely guy
and an amazing producer, Like really cool guy to work with.
You know, we had a lot to talk about, you know,
we're into the same kind a lot of the records
that I loved growing up listening to in my teams,
Like he was involved in the in the recording, so
it was like, yeah, it was like it was quite
a big deal for me. But yeah, a really great
guy and a great producer.
Speaker 5: By the way, you mentioned this is a little off subject,
but I'm just curious because you mentioned oesis earlier. What
what how are things looking over there? Did they already
they haven't played those shows yet, right, I know, I
know tickets on sale, but no.
Speaker 1: So so so with my band The Love Club, we
actually managed to support Nol Gallagher. Oh my god, ye ago,
which was which is this amazing experience at this at
this old castle they do these big outdoor gigs at
place called Powder and Castle, and and that was that
was like he's like one of my heroes. So that
was like amazing and amazing thing to get anywhere near oh,
being on a stage with him. So that was a
real highlight for me. But yeah, so when when I
heard they're getting back together, it was like, you know,
me and all my friends who are big Oasis fans,
were like, you know, very excited. But there was this
big clamor for tickets and you know, tickets were going
for like stupid money, you know, yeah, three four hundred
pounds of tickets, sometimes five hundred pounds a ticket, you know. Yeah,
so it's it's a big deal. It's a big deal
over here for sure.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Absolutely. Oasis is one of my favorite bands from
the nineties and my my favorite so oh yeah, Acquiess
is my favorite Oasis song, which originally was a B side,
but but then they performed it on Saturday Night Live.
I was like, how cool was that performing a B side?
Speaker 1: Totally And that's why I love no Gallagher because some
of his best songs were B sides, you know. Yeah,
and that song, that song Skyscraper that I wrote, it's
kind of people have said to me, it sounds a
bit like a like an Oasis B side or something.
It's got that kind of vibe to it. I think, yeah,
but yeah, yeah, some of my favorite favorite records of
theirs the kind of hidden the hidden gems that you
know you find on a B side somewhere. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I feel like it's kind of a British thing where
artists will put, well, we'll put on a B side
something that is not available anywhere else because a lot
of them. Like when I was growing up, I noticed this.
A lot of American artists, the B side is just
another song on the album, you know what I mean.
But a lot of British artists seem to really insist
on making the B side something completely separate that you
can't get anywhere else, which I always thought was really cool.
Speaker 1: Definitely, I think it started with with the Beatles because
they were really wanted to make sure that the fan
sort I saw an interview with Paul McCartney talking about this,
and he was like, he wanted to make sure that
the fans were getting the most for their money. So
when they when they buy the when they buy the
you know, the seven inch single or whatever, you know,
they try and make sure that there was a lot
of good material on there. So they try and make
sure that the B side was as good as the
A side, just like the double A sides and all
of that stuff. And so I think it was just
what O Wastins We're doing was trying to continue that
tradition of trying to give people good quality music. You know,
they paying money for a for a single, you know,
and they want to make sure that they get two
good songs it's not just one one good song and
a and a filler on the B side.
Speaker 5: You know, yeah, yeah, I always respected that and uh,
you know, Noel is one of those guys too who's
always writing, so you know, yeah, it makes sense. He's
he's got plenty of music.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, absolutely, yeah, he's not he's not sure of
a song or two for sure.
Speaker 17: So what so, so what do you have?
Speaker 6: What do you have coming up?
Speaker 3: Daniel?
Speaker 5: So you've got you're you're continuing to release Uh are
these home?
Speaker 2: Doown?

Speaker 1: That's it. So yeah, song came out yesterday's song on
Fire and then there'll be some We'll be releasing the
song every month going into the new year. I'll be
going back into the studio early next year to record
some new stuff and then and then going out and
doing some shows and hopefully some festivals.
Speaker 5: Summer outstanding outstanding.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: Any any plans to get to America in the future.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, we were really close to having an American
tour with the band. It was all being lined up
and then and then because we did the Nol Gallagher
support and then the album came out and then everything
was going great and then we got some American radio
and that was all going great. And then and then
they were going to bring us over for a talk
because it was obviously an American label. Yeah, and then
and then obviously coronavirus hit, so we couldn't go anywhere.
You know. It was like no one could do anything,
and it just really like not the stuffing out of
the whole the whole thing. But yeah, I'd love to
I'd love to come over. I'd love to come over
at some point. So yeah, in the future, i'd love
to come. And I've been to America a few times
and I absolutely love it, you know. I spent some
time in Seattle and Miami and a few other places,
so yeah, I love it.
Speaker 5: Nice. Nice.
Speaker 14: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Seattle's obviously a very in terms of American music, a
very influential place, especially in the nine is you know
all those all those bands.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Nirvana and yeah, Jimmy Hendrix.
That's the whole thing from Seattle, isn't it.
Speaker 5: Oh yes, yes, there you go. I forgot about that.
I forgot that. I forgot that he came from there. Yeah,
that's right, absolutely, Uh Daniel, Where should people go online

And thank you again to Daniel for joining us this
morning on the show. Coming up in the second hour
we have a vo G for the first half of
the second hour, and then in the second half of
the second hour, if you can follow all this we
have Dave Strong is going to be calling in. He's
got his brand new track is collab. I believe that's
what we say. Now with Soda they did a cover
of This Time of Year by the Mighty Mighty bos Stones.
We'll play that for you a bit later to really
really good. And then in the third hour we have regals.
But thank you again to Daniel Shamrock. That's great. When
that song was on, I realized there was somebody else
he reminds me of Ofry. I was trying to think
of who, and then it suddenly came to me, somebody
from the area Temple Mountain. Our friend Eric from Temple
Mountain or Eric is Temple Mountain sounds like him actually
a little bit and kind of a similar style of
songwriting too, really great, really great. So I might see
during the break if I can try to find I'm
curious to hear Daniel Shamroth's band that he was in
pre Plague the Loft Club. I'm curious about that. But
if you're just joining us, of course, Matt connorton Unleashed.
We are live from the studios of WMNH ninety five
point three FM and Glorious Downtown, well sort of downtown,
it depends on who you ask. Canal Street in Manchester,
New Hampshire. By the way, I want to mention the
next well let me let me mention an event that
just happened, and then we'll talk about the next one.
So I want to congratulate everybody, of course who participated
in the miracle on Elm Street at Bonfire on Wednesday night.
Fantastic event, lots of people there, lots of toys were donated,
and of course I donated something. I donated a hypnosiscession
and Jenny donated one of her wonderful Macroma collections or
creations rather well, she has a collection of Macrima creations.
I mentioned that because that also is part of our
the next event that Jenny and I are participating in.
But no, the Miracle looks like another rousing success and
it was great to see everyone there. And the food
was great, by the way, if you haven't had the
food at Bonfire, really really good. I ended up in
a food coma, as Jenny can attest to. I think
I was in bed by ten pm because I ate
so much. I really stuffed myself because it was so good.
But yeah, it was a great event and always wonderful
to be a part of something so positive and to
see so many people there, so so again, congratulations to everybody.
Of course, you know the Morning Show with Peter White
heavily involved in that, Matt Kushane from Hope Hope, NH
and of course Jeff nine in there also participating in
running things, and and of course Pat Mills from Bonfire,
so you know, and and everybody else who was involved.
So congratulations on that. And this was the fifth year
of the Miracles, so really really good. So the next
thing one week from today, the holiday market at Great
North Ale Works Jenny and I will be there, although
I will be arriving late to that event because of
course I have the radio show in the morning, so
i'll be here nine to noon, but it actually but
it'll be going all day. This is what's this is
what's online. Join us for our second holiday market at
Great North ale Works featuring New Hampshire artisans of all
mediums and their festive creations. Gather, shop small and have
a cup of cheer, supporting your community. And by the way,
the shopping small and supporting the community. It's like we
talked about recently with the magical market that our friends
at Sister Witch Company do on Small Business Saturday, that
they did last weekend. So very important to support your
local businesses. I know I harp on this a lot,
not to labor the point, but as I always like
to say, Walmart and Target, they don't need your money,
They'll be just fine. But small businesses do. They need
your support, especially during this critical you know, this is
you know, the holidays, it's it's the fourth quarter of
the year. It's a critical time for retailers of all sizes,
but especially small businesses, local businesses. So you know, even
if you're listening online from another part of the world.
You know, support your small businesses in your area. It
is so important and they really depend on it. And
you know, let's be honest. I mean, you get better
service from small small businesses anyway, right, So so please
support support great businesses like Great north Ale Works, for example,
who are doing this wonderful event one week from today.
So Jenny will be there, she will have her macromay
on sale. She's I still don't know how she does it.
My brain can't do the math, you know what I
mean of how she's able to create these things. It's
really remarkable to me. Just like with her artwork. I
can't my brain can't do the math. I don't understand
how to create these things. So I'm real, I'm really
in awe of what she does. But she will be there,
she'll have those items on sale. Of course, there'll be
other people selling their amazing creations that day. I will
be there, but again I'll be getting there late because
I'll be heading over after the radio show. And I
should mention too, because he has been a guest on
the show at least once, I think maybe a couple times.
Singer songwriter Kevin Horn will be performing that day at
Great North Ale Works as well at four pm. So
please again, another great business in the area that you
should support. They're not a sponsor, but I will mention too,
please support all our wonderful sponsors here at WMNH ninety
five point three FM. I think what we'll do is,
let's play I want to play one more track from
our new friend Daniel Shamroth, because there was another one
that we had talked about. We'll play one more track
and then, like I said, coming up in the second hour,
oh you are the one. Maybe we didn't talk about
this one, but I remember listening to it and I
really really like this one a lot. I like all
of them. But he's just got an amazing voice. Amazing voice,
great songwriter, great voice. Let's give this a spin two again.
This is another one of the home demo home demo
tracks that he's been releasing once a month. And like
