00:00:22,719 --> 00:00:23,640

Speaker 1: Okay, ye, very good, very good. So and Josh, So

10
00:00:29,199 --> 00:00:32,119
I interviewed you. We were talking off air back in

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,200
oh my god, twenty eleven.

12
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:35,079
Speaker 2: Is that right, twenty eleven?

13
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were in a band called the Ghost Dinner Band.

14
00:00:37,079 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 3: That's right.

15
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow. Yeah, so and you you mentioned too, So

16
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,840
you actually went back and listened to that. I did.

17
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:43,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I found the archives I was. I was listening

18
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:44,560
back as funny.

19
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:48,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I remember. I remember the Ghost Dinner Band

20
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,960
and whatever ended up happening to that.

21
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,119
Speaker 2: I mean, we we had a good run of it,

22
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,079
and things just kind of fizzled out. You know, we

23
00:00:56,119 --> 00:00:58,759
all we were like a high school sweetheart band. You know,

24
00:00:58,759 --> 00:01:01,799
we have been playing together high school. Yeah, just you know,

25
00:01:01,799 --> 00:01:03,159
we all just kind of win our separate ways, but

26
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,079
everybody's still playing in different bands and yeah for the

27
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:06,519
most part.

28
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, excellent, excellent. And that song that we just played,

29
00:01:09,519 --> 00:01:12,319
so is that the current single that that on my

30
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,480
mind featuring Rachel Sumner?

31
00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:15,599
Speaker 3: Yep, that's that's it.

32
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 2: And Rachel Sumner is an incredible songwriter from Boston area.

33
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 3: She's just amazing. Yeah. She had a giant TikTok moment

34
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,280
last year really yeah with a song called Radium Girls,

35
00:01:28,359 --> 00:01:33,159
right yeah, yeah, yeah, they went really viral. It's a

36
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,760
great song. You should check it out. Oh I will.

37
00:01:34,879 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought her name was familiar. Maybe that's why

38
00:01:37,799 --> 00:01:40,079
I know it. Yeah, how did you guys get connected

39
00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:41,120
with her to do this track?

40
00:01:41,719 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 2: So we just we knew her, like, you know, acquaintances

41
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,280
and friends in the scene, and when writing the song,

42
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,359
we just knew that it needed a female voice, yeah,

43
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,040
kind of do that duet classic thing. And yeah, she

44
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,120
came to mind. So we reached out and she was

45
00:01:56,159 --> 00:01:58,840
into it, and yeah, she just nailed it. We sent

46
00:01:58,879 --> 00:02:00,760
her the tracks and she kind of sent like, hey,

47
00:02:00,799 --> 00:02:04,040
is this what you're looking for? And we were like absolutely,

48
00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:05,439
like just knocked it out of the park.

49
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:05,879
Speaker 3: Yeah.

50
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 1: Well, very cool. Yeah. I like that song a lot.

51
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,479
It's got got kind of a little bit of a balance,

52
00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:13,120
a little bit of a swing to it. But yeah,

53
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,520
very cool. Now the album or album, I guess are

54
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,520
you calling it an EP? It's seven tracks. It's kind

55
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,120
of in that, right, It's it's seven.

56
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,879
Speaker 2: It's seven So yeah, it's an EP, but it's like,

57
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:23,879
you know, it's somewhere between.

58
00:02:24,039 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: It's in that weird gray zone between EP and album.

59
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,800
And is that already out or is that coming out soon?

60
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 2: It's coming out on the seventeenth, Oh, next week?

61
00:02:32,039 --> 00:02:34,879
Speaker 1: Oh, very good, very good. So this is this is

62
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,879
like a world premiere, world premiere. Excellent, excellent. Yeah, and

63
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,120
it makes sense for that to be, you know, because

64
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,759
of Rachel. It makes sense that that would be the

65
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,879
first h the first single. But you guys have released

66
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,199
other things before.

67
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 3: This, right, yep.

68
00:02:49,039 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 2: Yes, this is our third album and this is actually

69
00:02:51,759 --> 00:02:53,800
the third single from from the album. So we've we've

70
00:02:53,879 --> 00:02:55,719
dropped a few singles. We've been trickling them out a

71
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:56,120
little bit.

72
00:02:56,159 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: Oh okay, Yeah, that's interesting. That's something that comes up

73
00:02:58,719 --> 00:03:00,240
a lot on the show, is you know, we living

74
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,280
a time where you can use all these different strategies

75
00:03:03,319 --> 00:03:06,400
in terms of of how you release things. And I've

76
00:03:06,439 --> 00:03:09,120
noticed that, you know, because I'm old enough to remember that.

77
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,360
You know, every band would release an album, the first

78
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,560
single would go to radio maybe six eight weeks before

79
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,360
the album, right, you know, and then the album comes out,

80
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,240
and then the second single, and then the third single

81
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,680
and so forth. But now, you know, because of the

82
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,560
Internet and the way things have changed over the years,

83
00:03:23,759 --> 00:03:25,520
there's so many different things you can do. You can

84
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,400
release an EP, you can release an album, you can

85
00:03:27,439 --> 00:03:29,680
release a series of singles that eventually become an album.

86
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,840
You can you know, release you know, a few singles

87
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,759
ahead of an EP. What what decisions? Why did you

88
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:39,960
guys decide to use the strategy that you're using for

89
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,840
this release or or did it just and there may

90
00:03:43,039 --> 00:03:45,159
may not be a reason, It may just feel organically

91
00:03:45,319 --> 00:03:46,520
right to do it this story, but.

92
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:52,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're guessing at what works. You know, we've seen

93
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,159
a lot of like strategic how you do all this stuff,

94
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,120
But also like albums in collections of songs aren't really

95
00:04:01,159 --> 00:04:03,400
something that that gets a lot of shine these days.

96
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,280
You know, a lot of there's a lot of singles

97
00:04:06,319 --> 00:04:10,319
and stuff like that, and like there's a real reason

98
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,520
to do that, but there's there's a level of we

99
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,240
like to get together and work on six, seven to

100
00:04:15,319 --> 00:04:17,279
eight songs in the studio at a time.

101
00:04:17,879 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 2: So right, well, yeah, it is sad because albums as

102
00:04:21,639 --> 00:04:24,279
a whole aren't being consumed as they used to be.

103
00:04:24,319 --> 00:04:26,560
Still people still do listen to them, and yeah, but

104
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,160
you know it is a single culture for that matter.

105
00:04:30,199 --> 00:04:32,720
But yeah, I mean we follow the what is the

106
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,439
the Waterfall releases what they call it, where you kind

107
00:04:35,439 --> 00:04:37,560
of tickling the algorithm before the album comes out.

108
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. By the way, we have received an

109
00:04:40,959 --> 00:04:46,800
instant message from deb Blair, says Josh's mom, listening live

110
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,160
from Phoenix, Arizona. Well, hello, more we go so very nice.

111
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,600
Nice Where did you guys record? Where do you record it?

112
00:04:52,639 --> 00:04:54,319
Because everything sounds fantastic.

113
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 3: Thanks.

114
00:04:54,959 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a kind of a home studio, yeah,

115
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,160
in peterbornh Hampshire, and yeah it's it's where we rehearse

116
00:05:02,199 --> 00:05:04,920
and it's kind of like our project studio and yeah,

117
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:05,720
do everything there.

118
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's another thing that's kind of changed over the

119
00:05:08,439 --> 00:05:09,879
years is you know, we live in a time where

120
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,079
you can there's so many different options for how to

121
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,160
record and you can you know, obviously there's a lot

122
00:05:15,199 --> 00:05:18,079
of great studios around, but you can also do you know,

123
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,040
do most of it at home or all of it

124
00:05:20,079 --> 00:05:23,519
at home, and you know, you can email tracks back

125
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,240
and forth if you want to. There's so many ways

126
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,160
to do it, and you can you can actually produce

127
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:29,920
something that sounds like it was recorded in a million

128
00:05:29,959 --> 00:05:31,560
dollar studio totally.

129
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I'm always reminded that that first Billie Eilish

130
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,600
album I think was recorded fully in her bedroom with

131
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,879
your brother. Yeah, you know, like, I'm not a pop guy,

132
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:45,240
but that's impressive that you can do that and then

133
00:05:45,399 --> 00:05:46,319
blow up like that.

134
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:46,879
Speaker 4: It is.

135
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. How do you, guys, how do you

136
00:05:51,879 --> 00:05:54,360
just describe your sound? I was looking at the website

137
00:05:54,360 --> 00:06:00,240
and I saw some pretty interesting verbiage. But somebody who

138
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,800
was it somebody recently, because you're the name Modern Fools

139
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,199
has come up on the show more than once, so

140
00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:07,680
there's a lot of other artists in the area who

141
00:06:07,759 --> 00:06:09,839
are are big fans of you guys. And somebody described

142
00:06:09,879 --> 00:06:11,079
you as cosmic country.

143
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think that's kind of what we've been

144
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,279
rolling with lately, and I know that gets a lot

145
00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:20,959
of ties to Daniel Donado, who's a younger artist now

146
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,639
who has put it in his name, but it really

147
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,680
goes back to like Grand Parsons is really the founder,

148
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,319
I would say, the godfather of cosmic country, which is

149
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,439
sort of just a blend of you know, country rock,

150
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,079
which is he's responsible for that.

151
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it certainly doesn't sound like what you

152
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:39,879
hear on the radio.

153
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,879
Speaker 2: Sure, yes, it's not bud Light country. We're more of

154
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:45,839
a Miller high life.

155
00:06:46,759 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 1: I had not heard that term to describe modern country.

156
00:06:49,959 --> 00:06:51,680
I've heard the term bro country.

157
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:52,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, that works.

158
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:53,639
Speaker 1: I've heard that a lot.

159
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 2: We've been working on figuring out, like I think that

160
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,439
beer is a just a good description for country and general.

161
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

162
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,079
Speaker 2: So there's lots of different varieties of country. Obviously Corona country, Yeah,

163
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:09,079
Corona country. That that'd be more like the Jimmy Buffett

164
00:07:09,079 --> 00:07:10,279
era of country, you know.

165
00:07:10,439 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong, I still like Corona country sometimes. Yeah.

166
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,439
Speaker 2: Sure, so, I just you know, whatever you're whatever you're

167
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,480
drinking is kind of, you know, defines you in the

168
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,199
country real.

169
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: Well, are so we live with u? Or he lives

170
00:07:24,519 --> 00:07:25,160
with us? Really?

171
00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:25,439
Speaker 5: Uh?

172
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,879
Speaker 1: DJ Reckless, I don't know if he has no DJ reckless,

173
00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:30,800
but he's he works at ninety six five. Uh what

174
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:34,680
it now? Live free country? Yeah, live flif free country.

175
00:07:34,879 --> 00:07:37,199
I keep wanting to still call it the mill, even

176
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:38,879
though it hasn't been that in at least a year.

177
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,519
But but uh, you know, I'll turn that station on

178
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,839
and and some of what I hear it it doesn't

179
00:07:45,879 --> 00:07:50,759
even sound like like it's country. It's got just enough

180
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,399
twang in it to be country, some of the modern stuff,

181
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,879
but but some of it like just barely enough, you

182
00:07:55,959 --> 00:07:56,439
know what I mean.

183
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's basically just pop music, right, and then some

184
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,399
of it, Yeah, got a banjo in the back, like

185
00:08:00,399 --> 00:08:01,600
a pedal steel and then.

186
00:08:01,879 --> 00:08:06,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, well the Nashville thing is has really been homogenized

187
00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:08,319
at this point. And it's not it's not bad. Those

188
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,279
guys are incredibly talented players. But you go to Nashville

189
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:15,120
to make a certain type of music and and it

190
00:08:15,279 --> 00:08:19,959
comes out being in that vein and it it's not

191
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:22,680
the same kind of classic country that that were turned onto.

192
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:29,720
It's definitely a derivative of that thing. But yeah, you know,

193
00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:32,919
there's there's there's merit in in in anything you're making.

194
00:08:33,039 --> 00:08:36,080
For us, we when we think of country, we're thinking

195
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:42,399
you know, Christofferson, cash Parton, you know, the Graham Parsons,

196
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,679
the Flying Burrito Brothers. Yeah, I could probably name them

197
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,360
for for longer than they should. And we go back

198
00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:52,360
to an era where it really feels like it was

199
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:53,840
like it was an outsider art form.

200
00:08:54,000 --> 00:09:00,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, interesting. What about are there any modern country

201
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,159
artists who who you guys kind of relate to a bunch?

202
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 2: I would say that right now is probably like the

203
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:12,440
healthiest time for what I'm gonna coin is good country

204
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,240
for lack of a better term. But yeah, I mean

205
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,759
like there's there's a lot of just bands that are like,

206
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,559
you know, like Charlie Crockett maybe being like one of

207
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,080
the bigger artists right now. But yep, that's you know,

208
00:09:23,159 --> 00:09:26,279
like going back to that roots stuff and it's you know,

209
00:09:26,279 --> 00:09:28,919
it's very much not but like driven.

210
00:09:30,039 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: I still love that. That's funny. The name that comes

211
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,279
up really consistently on the show is Chris Stapleton. Like,

212
00:09:38,159 --> 00:09:41,799
especially with the not just with bands, but singer songwriters.

213
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,759
This guy's coming in with just an acoustic guitar like

214
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:48,320
Chris Stapleton's name. Chris Stapleton's name comes up all the time.

215
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,879
Speaker 2: Definitely he's he's doing he's doing it right for sure.

216
00:09:50,919 --> 00:09:52,919
Speaker 3: I think he's one of those few guys that's still

217
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,279
like like keeping that whole art form pure. It's cool

218
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,080
to see a guy that's doing that still maintaining that

219
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,080
level of popularity too. Right, Yeah, well.

220
00:10:03,919 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: He's uh yeah, he's a hell of a songwriter. I think,

221
00:10:07,799 --> 00:10:11,240
great voice and and as far as Nashville goes too,

222
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,799
I feel like, uh, I always say this from a

223
00:10:14,159 --> 00:10:17,200
just from a production standpoint, Nashville really has it down.

224
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,200
Like I think that just sonically in terms of production,

225
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,399
Like I'm I'm really picky about drums when I listen

226
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,200
to a song, and I think, you know, the drum

227
00:10:27,279 --> 00:10:30,639
sounds coming out of those Nashville studios just are I

228
00:10:30,639 --> 00:10:34,080
think it sounds absolutely perfect. And I think a lot

229
00:10:34,159 --> 00:10:38,480
of things, you know, a lot of I listen to

230
00:10:38,519 --> 00:10:40,919
a lot of metal, but a lot of modern metal

231
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,799
something went wrong, where like the guitars don't sound right

232
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,840
to me. They sound small, if that makes sense, Whereas

233
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,200
when I was growing up, metal sounded, you know, the

234
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,639
guitars sounded nice and crunchy. So I have complaints about

235
00:10:55,039 --> 00:10:57,799
how modern metal is produced and how and I can

236
00:10:57,879 --> 00:10:59,159
you know, I have a little bit of an audio

237
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,360
engineering background, so I can pick apart a lot of things.

238
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,639
But when I listen to anything coming out of Nashville,

239
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,639
it's like just from a production stamp. Whether I like

240
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,159
the song or not, just from an audio production standpoint,

241
00:11:08,159 --> 00:11:10,600
it's like wow, like they've got it. You know.

242
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 3: That's Have you ever been down Music Row in Nashville.

243
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 6: I have not.

244
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: I've never been to Nashville, So, I mean, given it was.

245
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,879
Speaker 3: It was probably three or four years ago now, but

246
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,919
my wife and I were down there and we're walking

247
00:11:22,919 --> 00:11:24,919
through and we're seeing like big Machine and you know,

248
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,080
all the all the giant labels, and I had that

249
00:11:28,159 --> 00:11:31,360
same thought. But that, I mean, like, I'm a music nerd, right,

250
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,720
and how could you not be being you know, our

251
00:11:33,759 --> 00:11:38,879
age still releasing singles to But like, for for us,

252
00:11:38,919 --> 00:11:41,639
like that emanates from like the late sixties and the

253
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,399
seventies when you had guys like Bob Dylan going in

254
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,480
uh to record with a what was his name, Billy

255
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,480
the Nashville producer. I'm not I'm not, I'm not gonna go,

256
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,720
but you know who I'm talking about. So he went

257
00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:56,399
in there, and then Neil Young goes in there ten

258
00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,240
years later and the sound like it's the Nashville thing

259
00:12:00,279 --> 00:12:03,480
they went there to record and lay down those kind

260
00:12:03,519 --> 00:12:04,759
of tracks. It's really cool.

261
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely do you guys, everything that you've recorded,

262
00:12:09,639 --> 00:12:11,159
have you've done it the same way in terms of

263
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,399
how you produce it.

264
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,759
Speaker 2: No, now we change it up. This record we did

265
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,759
almost exclusively live. It's very live in this Oh cool.

266
00:12:20,919 --> 00:12:23,320
This record was kind of like a concept album to

267
00:12:23,399 --> 00:12:27,080
some regards anyway, with moving into the honky TNK realm.

268
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,639
That's not really what we typically do. There's always kind

269
00:12:30,639 --> 00:12:32,360
of a tinge of country in there, but this is

270
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:35,960
like full on country. And the whole thing actually stemmed

271
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,519
from On the album cover, there's a sign that says

272
00:12:38,519 --> 00:12:42,240
clearly country, which I found at a yard sale and

273
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,440
I had seen it in the daytime and I just

274
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,600
couldn't stop thinking about it. I didn't buy it. Yeah,

275
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,559
I don't know why. I just had to go. I

276
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,080
had to go buy it. So I went back and

277
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,120
bought it, and I didn't really know why at the time,

278
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,000
but it sort of sparked this inspiration.

279
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 3: It was like, that's an album cover, yep, honky tunk record.

280
00:12:59,279 --> 00:13:02,919
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's very cool. It's very cool. Has the

281
00:13:02,919 --> 00:13:05,960
lineup been the same over the course of the band

282
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,320
or has that changed at all?

283
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,519
Speaker 2: So it's actually changed. So the band formed originally in

284
00:13:10,519 --> 00:13:15,440
twenty fourteen, okay, so, and I was the only original

285
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,200
member from that lineup. We kind of fizzled out in

286
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,919
probably twenty sixteen or seventeen. We never actually did a record.

287
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,279
We did a bunch of local.

288
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: Shows well, and by fizzled out. That was about when

289
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,720
I joined the band and we became a different band

290
00:13:28,879 --> 00:13:31,960
entirely sure called the Flood. And I don't know if

291
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,080
you know eight A m or Adam in the Flood,

292
00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:38,240
but we used to play in his band and did

293
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,840
a little little move in with him, and then COVID happened.

294
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, the pandemic time is we just kind of like

295
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,559
got it all together and started recording.

296
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,399
Speaker 3: And so he was traveling all throughout the US writing

297
00:13:51,519 --> 00:13:56,159
songs and sending us the demos back here. You know.

298
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,879
Some of our favorite came from your time in Joshua

299
00:13:58,919 --> 00:14:04,080
Tree in California, and then Justin and I the drummer,

300
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,480
would get these demos and we were kind of pouring

301
00:14:08,519 --> 00:14:09,720
over them. These are great.

302
00:14:09,879 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

303
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 3: So our first album was largely recorded distance. Okay, now,

304
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,600
not all while you were on the road, but because

305
00:14:18,639 --> 00:14:21,000
of COVID, like none of us knew what was going on,

306
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,360
we weren't getting together. Yeah, So so we were sending

307
00:14:23,399 --> 00:14:25,559
tracks left and right in that first album see or

308
00:14:25,559 --> 00:14:29,080
we did probably about ninety percent separated from each other,

309
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:29,519
for sure.

310
00:14:29,559 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, was it hard doing it that way? Or because

311
00:14:32,879 --> 00:14:35,840
one of the things, you know, the pandemic comes up

312
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,879
a lot on the show because it's a very very

313
00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:40,559
common tale. You know, we were doing this, we were

314
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,039
doing that. We had all these plans and then the plague.

315
00:14:44,519 --> 00:14:47,200
But and as awful as it was, you know, I

316
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,120
always say we have to find these silver linings where

317
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,360
we can, and I feel like one of the few

318
00:14:50,399 --> 00:14:52,240
silver linings of it was it kind of forced people

319
00:14:52,279 --> 00:14:54,919
to be creative in ways that maybe they hadn't previously

320
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,720
considered and getting comfortable with things like sending tracks back

321
00:14:58,759 --> 00:14:59,919
and forth and doing all that.

322
00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 3: Sure, so I think for us we in various iterations. Right,

323
00:15:05,399 --> 00:15:07,360
New Hampshire is a small state, right, and we're a

324
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:11,320
small music scene. Josh and I have known each other

325
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,440
twenty some odd years now, you know, we started playing

326
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,279
music together about ten years ago. In real capacity, but like,

327
00:15:19,279 --> 00:15:22,919
like you know, our stories are very intertwined, and so

328
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,360
there was a level of we've played with these guys,

329
00:15:26,399 --> 00:15:28,840
all of them for a minimum of five six years

330
00:15:28,919 --> 00:15:31,559
at that point, or various like ins and outs. Yeah,

331
00:15:31,639 --> 00:15:34,120
how do we take that relationship and how do we

332
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,399
do it in a different sort of way. So, like,

333
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,120
it probably would have been a lot harder to try

334
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,799
to get the whole thing going like like like fresh. Yeah,

335
00:15:43,799 --> 00:15:45,360
but you got a bunch of guys that are gonna

336
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,240
eat nachos with each other any day anyway. You know

337
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,799
what difference is it if you're sending texts in everything?

338
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,919
Speaker 1: That makes sense? Yeah, that makes sense. Definitely we should. Uh,

00:16:02,039 --> 00:16:03,960
but I also listen to the rest of the album too,

343
00:16:04,039 --> 00:16:06,240
or EP. The whole thing is great. I love it,

344
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,320
but whatever whatever you want to go with next.

345
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,480

389
00:21:08,079 --> 00:21:09,759
Speaker 2: It's a fluctuating five piece.

390
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,599
Speaker 1: Okay. We weren't sure because your bio says for us

391
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,680
them on the website. But then there's a picture on

392
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,119
Facebook with five people.

393
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 3: We can do shows with four. We like to do

394
00:21:19,519 --> 00:21:20,960
him with as many people as possible.

395
00:21:21,039 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: Got ya.

396
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 2: We have a keyboard player that is he's there sometimes

397
00:21:24,519 --> 00:21:24,880
he's there.

398
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 3: Not. Okay.

399
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,519
Speaker 1: I suspected it might be something like that because obviously

400
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,759
the style of music that you do, the vibe and everything,

401
00:21:30,839 --> 00:21:33,559
you know, you've got that flexibility you can kind of,

402
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,119
you know, kind of do that. I've I've always been

403
00:21:36,599 --> 00:21:38,480
I've always been a little envious of that. Actually, you know,

404
00:21:38,519 --> 00:21:40,039
I used to play. I don't play anymore. I used

405
00:21:40,039 --> 00:21:41,119
to play in a bunch of bands, but I was

406
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,039
never in a project where we had that kind of

407
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,240
thing where you know, you could you could, you could

408
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,279
vary it and still make it work no matter what,

409
00:21:49,519 --> 00:21:52,720
you know, and bring guest musicians on stage.

410
00:21:52,839 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 3: And yeah, that's really the thing we get. We get.

411
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,880
I mean, you don't say the four core because Nicky

412
00:21:59,039 --> 00:22:03,920
is Nicky's five, but four of us can pull it off.

413
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,160
We got steel players we can bring in. We have

414
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,759
a great time, a couple auxiliary vocalists and yeah, this

415
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,519
is yeah, fun thing to do.

416
00:22:11,759 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, it's cool to be able to do

417
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,480
it that way. Are you guys planning out a lot?

418
00:22:15,519 --> 00:22:16,440
Are you doing a lot of shows?

419
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,160

497
00:25:45,559 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, so we're not. We're not Manchester local, right,

498
00:25:48,079 --> 00:25:50,759
I think you're a Peterburger. I've been in Music Connection

499
00:25:50,839 --> 00:25:52,400
a couple of times. And he's also got a Turner's

500
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,079
Fall store, which is cool. Oh, I'll look up the address.

501
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,480
Why not, might as well put it put it out there. Yeah,

502
00:25:59,559 --> 00:26:00,400
let me do that so I.

503
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 1: Know it's not on ELM. I'm just trying to think.

504
00:26:03,079 --> 00:26:06,119
I think I've been there. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe I haven't.

505
00:26:06,519 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's a cool store. It's very much

506
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,839
stuck in that like we are a record shop. Yeah,

507
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:17,720
we love being a record shop mentality and I love that. Yeah. Yeah,

508
00:26:17,759 --> 00:26:19,720
it's super great. We'll be there.

509
00:26:19,759 --> 00:26:21,599
Speaker 2: We'll have some hard copies of the CDs, which is

510
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,839
kind of funny because I don't think people are going

511
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:24,680
there to buy CDs.

512
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 3: But right right that maybe seventeen eleven South Willow across

513
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,319
from the mall, New Him or Oh okay, use the connection.

514
00:26:34,599 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have been in there. I remember going in

515
00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:39,559
there now. Yeah, because I can now you said the address,

516
00:26:39,599 --> 00:26:41,839
I can picture it right across from the mall. Yeah,

517
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,240
that's very cool, and it's great that there's still places

518
00:26:45,279 --> 00:26:45,960
around that do that.

519
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 3: You know, definitely.

520
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: I don't think a lot of people probably don't even

521
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,039
realize that there's still places around that do that. So

522
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:53,359
that's awesome, dude.

523
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,640
Speaker 3: I still pull up all those old Wilco in store

524
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,960
performances to watch back. Those are some of the greatest

525
00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,880
ones really. Yeah, yeah, they're so neat.

526
00:27:00,079 --> 00:27:03,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, very cool? Are those on those You.

527
00:27:03,039 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 3: Can find them on YouTube. Yeah, there's just hear in

528
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,640
a band do a stripped down thing. Yeah, it's fun.

529
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,559
Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely, absolutely. You guys want to pick another one?

530
00:27:11,599 --> 00:27:12,519
We should play another one?

531
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, John, why do you pick one? I already told

532
00:27:15,519 --> 00:27:17,480
you what I want to pick. Well, it's your turn,

533
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,759
all right. So I wanted to give a shine to

534
00:27:20,839 --> 00:27:24,200
the other two guys who couldn't be here today, Justin

535
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,200
who's a great drummer, and hopefully we'd play Ballroom because

536
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,000
that's an unbelievable drum drum track. But Ian did the

537
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,680
lead off on this one, which is Don't let Your

538
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,319
Love Run Cold, so Josh wrote it. But Ian, who

539
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:42,880
is our bassist, is just an unbelievable vocal arranger. So

540
00:27:43,279 --> 00:27:46,400
this is a Yeah, this is a not a long song,

541
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,559
but it's always fun to give shine to the guys

542
00:27:48,599 --> 00:27:50,039
that can do stuff that's incredible.

543
00:27:50,279 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 2: It's this you didn't even say run Colu the first

544
00:27:55,079 --> 00:27:55,559
track there.

545
00:27:55,599 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 3: It is. It's it's kind of a funny one to

546
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,559
play on the radio. It's all vocal arrangement.

547
00:28:00,039 --> 00:28:01,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's short, it's it's only a minute and a half.

548
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,000
But uh yeah, and it opens the album opens the album. Yeah,

549
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,000
very cool. All right, let's give this a listen. This

550
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,279
is Ron Cold. The band is Modern Fools.

551
00:28:09,799 --> 00:28:16,839
Speaker 9: Don't let your love run cold, keep your heart on

552
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:27,720
go turning fire to cold. Don't let you run cold.

553
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 4: If there's live, so.

554
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 9: You hail in line, stay by your side.

555
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,359
Speaker 4: If it is live a live.

556
00:28:50,839 --> 00:28:58,119
Speaker 9: If I be food, the hell are you.

557
00:29:01,279 --> 00:29:01,839
Speaker 8: Lovely?

558
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 4: Ah evoving?

559
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 9: Don't let you run cold, keep your heart of cold,

560
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:29,200
turning fire to cold, don't you run cold?

561
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,839
Speaker 1: That is run Cold. That is Modern Fools. And we've

562
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,400
got Josh and John from the band Modern Fools with

563
00:29:38,519 --> 00:29:42,559
us here in studio. That's nice. I like the I

564
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,400
do like the vocals. There's a little bit of although

565
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,279
it's not all vocals, there's a little bit of guitar.

566
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,559
Speaker 3: Little guitar in there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like in

567
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,440
the back room sounding yeah yeah, that one we intentionally

568
00:29:52,519 --> 00:29:55,680
recorded huddled around an old microphone. Oh no, if it

569
00:29:55,799 --> 00:29:59,200
sounded like it, it does, I can. I can picture it.

570
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,680
I can definitely fix No, that's cool. Have you guys

571
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,279
done any Yeah, you could do some interesting visuals with that.

572
00:30:05,359 --> 00:30:06,839
Have you guys done any videos.

573
00:30:06,559 --> 00:30:08,319
Speaker 1: For any of these or not? For these?

574
00:30:09,119 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 2: We have done some some interesting music videos in the past.

575
00:30:11,839 --> 00:30:14,400
We've had some fun with that, but uh yeah. We

576
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,440
recently did a like a live session. We took over

577
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,519
the Hancock Depot, which is in Hancock, New Hampshire. Yeah,

578
00:30:20,559 --> 00:30:22,720
it's an old train depot and they have like a

579
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,519
it's a really cool little cabaret style venue and they

580
00:30:25,559 --> 00:30:28,119
have a stage. But we took over like basically like

581
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,960
the living room there, which is like this turn of

582
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,119
the century looking.

583
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 3: Railroad station.

584
00:30:33,359 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 2: It's like all this old stuff in there, and we

585
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,839
uh yeah, we brought in some friends and film crew

586
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,559
and recorded the whole thing. So we're starting to release

587
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,079
that and they'll be sort of a like a full

588
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,720
band live video shoot that's we're gonna slowly start putting out.

589
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,039
Speaker 3: Oh okay, So the recap. We recorded the album live

590
00:30:51,839 --> 00:30:56,319
and then we re recorded the album live to release

591
00:30:56,359 --> 00:30:56,920
a video of it.

592
00:30:57,759 --> 00:31:00,599
Speaker 1: No, that's cool though. How many songs did you record

593
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:01,160
for the video?

594
00:31:01,559 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: I think we did all we did eight because we

595
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,400
added a cover and there did the full album and

596
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,079
then we did an extra song.

597
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: So are you going to release a full video at

598
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,759
once or are you gonna split that up?

599
00:31:11,759 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 2: We'll split it up to what we already released.

600
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 3: One.

601
00:31:14,799 --> 00:31:17,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, we did a version of Ballroom Bender Blues, which

602
00:31:17,119 --> 00:31:19,119
is which is really cool. It's just that oh, very

603
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,480
cool visual and it was just a fun experience. It was. Yeah,

604
00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:25,759
we have a little content to keep the content train

605
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:26,799
rolling after the fact.

606
00:31:26,839 --> 00:31:30,119
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, well that's important. Absolutely, It's very important

607
00:31:30,119 --> 00:31:33,079
to do that. You guys. I ask everybody this question.

608
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,279
But I'm always curious. Are there any other bands in

609
00:31:36,319 --> 00:31:38,559
the area that you kind of you know, it often

610
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,119
happens organically, but anybody you've kind of teamed up with

611
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:42,599
that you happen to play a lot of shows with.

612
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 2: Well, we started playing with our friends Coyote Smoke, who

613
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,519
are a newer band from the Sea Coast.

614
00:31:49,599 --> 00:31:52,119
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know them. Yeah, they're cool name.

615
00:31:52,279 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're brand new and they they're also like playing

616
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,519
with the Regals as well, So like, yeah, we're all

617
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,799
kind of tied in and that regard and sort of

618
00:32:01,759 --> 00:32:04,759
creating this this new scene hopefully, like this interesting kind

619
00:32:04,799 --> 00:32:07,440
of old country thing that's that's forming.

620
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,759
Speaker 3: There's Slim Volume, who we love those guys. There's the

621
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:18,839
Rear Defrosters. They're out of Vermont, but they are I mean,

622
00:32:19,839 --> 00:32:24,559
they're kind of like the spiritual country grandfathers of the area.

623
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,039
Yeah yeah, I mean like we're we're getting on the

624
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:33,039
the old Uncle territory. But but these guys were doing

625
00:32:33,079 --> 00:32:34,920
this kind of stuff like you know, the early two

626
00:32:35,039 --> 00:32:39,440
thousands and now. Actually one of them owns one of

627
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,079
the venues in Keene called Nova Arts. I don't know

628
00:32:42,119 --> 00:32:43,640
if you've been there. It's a great place.

629
00:32:43,839 --> 00:32:46,559
Speaker 1: I've heard about it. I've not been there, but if

630
00:32:46,599 --> 00:32:47,160
you like that.

631
00:32:47,599 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 3: And because New Hampshire is so small, once a month

632
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,400
there's actually a honky tonk night by the Rear Defrosters

633
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,000
over there. Worth a trip over for sure. Yeah.

634
00:32:56,079 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, Vermont.

635
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 3: They are Brattleborough, NY. Okay, you know the Hill people. Yeah, no,

636
00:33:04,559 --> 00:33:04,920
that's cool.

637
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, I haven't heard of them either. I'll have to

638
00:33:06,359 --> 00:33:10,039
look them up. That's cool. You do you ever play

639
00:33:10,079 --> 00:33:12,720
shows with bands that you don't necessarily fit like.

640
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 3: It's happened for sure.

641
00:33:15,039 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 5: Yeah.

642
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,079
Speaker 2: You know, sometimes venues will just put together a show

643
00:33:18,319 --> 00:33:21,000
and yeah, but for the most part, people are pretty

644
00:33:21,039 --> 00:33:24,720
in tune with like trying to get us, you know,

645
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:29,319
onto like like similar bills. We we did a thing

646
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,680
with say Zu Zoo on Stone Church where those guys

647
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:33,039
are great.

648
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:34,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool.

649
00:33:34,799 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 2: All country Legends in New Hampshire basically and yeah. Yeah,

650
00:33:38,559 --> 00:33:40,440
so hopefully we'll do some more stuff with them this

651
00:33:40,519 --> 00:33:45,039
summer and yeah, and John Nolan's side project band as well.

652
00:33:45,359 --> 00:33:49,279
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, I think probably the weirdest ones that we've

653
00:33:49,319 --> 00:33:52,079
been paired up to or are those ones we're supporting

654
00:33:52,319 --> 00:33:56,599
like major national acts coming through, but you know those

655
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,440
are just like we're happy to be on the same Yeah.

656
00:33:59,559 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, So like, what what are some some nationals you've

657
00:34:04,079 --> 00:34:04,960
you've gotten open for.

658
00:34:05,119 --> 00:34:07,119

playing the two hundred and fifty people and has them

693
00:35:28,599 --> 00:35:33,320

747
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:54,280
from the band here with us.

748
00:40:54,599 --> 00:40:54,679
Speaker 5: Now.

749
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 1: It's definitely got that live vibe. Well, especially at the

750
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,320
end of course when you hear live people.

751
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,079
Speaker 3: But yeah, we wanted to be.

752
00:41:02,159 --> 00:41:04,639
Speaker 2: Like those old like Hank Williams records where you got

753
00:41:04,679 --> 00:41:06,800
a hoot and holler and yeah, it's like all his

754
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:07,760
buddies are in the room.

755
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's very cool. You definitely you definitely captured that. Hey,

756
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,559
by the way, where does the name come from? Modern Fools?

757
00:41:13,599 --> 00:41:14,480
What's the meaning?

758
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not very deep. Really.

759
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:23,039
Speaker 2: The original logo that we had was the waffle house logo,

760
00:41:23,119 --> 00:41:24,639
you know, like the sign is just like the big

761
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,639
sign with the letters, and I don't know. Initially it

762
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,760
was just I knew I wanted that sign to be

763
00:41:31,119 --> 00:41:33,760
the logo, so I was figuring out different letters that

764
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:34,840
fit within that sign.

765
00:41:35,079 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 3: Okay, that's that's pretty much it. Oh okay, And then

766
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,760
over the last few years we've really grown into the name.

767
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,400
So really, yeah, absolutely for sure.

768
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 1: There you go. There you go, are you guys already

769
00:41:46,519 --> 00:41:49,760
obviously you know this, this EP is just about to

770
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,000
come out, but are you already working on new stuff?

771
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,519
You strike me as guys you probably have a lot

772
00:41:53,559 --> 00:41:54,039
of ideas.

773
00:41:54,559 --> 00:41:56,519
Speaker 2: Definitely, there's there's some stuff in the works. I think

774
00:41:56,559 --> 00:41:59,599
we're gonna start putting their nose at the grindstone very soon.

775
00:41:59,679 --> 00:42:05,039
Speaker 3: And yep, the next thing we've got, we've got hopefully

776
00:42:05,079 --> 00:42:07,480
some covers that we're gonna be dropping over the over

777
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:12,639
the next few months. Josh has had a tumultuous twenty

778
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,360
twenty four that that led to some songs coming out,

779
00:42:15,519 --> 00:42:18,559
so uh so we're gonna be working on some demos

780
00:42:18,599 --> 00:42:21,320
to that too, hopefully hopefully some new music coming out

781
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:21,800
in the fallish.

782
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're doing a Midwestern emo kind of thing for sure.

783
00:42:25,039 --> 00:42:30,079
Speaker 3: Oh my god. Yeah, just kidding, but we just do

784
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,320
like full switch arounds every time you do an album.

785
00:42:33,519 --> 00:42:35,360
Speaker 2: I don't mind that though. I like there's some bands

786
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,880
out there that do that. There's just like one album

787
00:42:38,199 --> 00:42:40,320
is like a punk album for no reason, and the

788
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:41,639
next one is a country album.

789
00:42:41,679 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 3: You just oh yeah, like you're a long for the Red.

790
00:42:44,679 --> 00:42:47,039
Daniel Romano is one of those.

791
00:42:47,639 --> 00:42:50,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, well even you know, last week we had Slim Volume,

792
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,559
and you know, we're talking about the difference and the

793
00:42:52,599 --> 00:42:55,519
two EPs that they released, and you know, even they

794
00:42:55,639 --> 00:42:58,920
kind of went for a different not drastically different, you know,

795
00:42:59,079 --> 00:43:01,440
but vibes with each EP.

796
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:03,760
Speaker 3: I mean, at the end of the day, it's still

797
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,199
the same guys playing the same instruments, right, Like, so, yeah,

798
00:43:07,639 --> 00:43:12,119
you only get so much variation, right, Well, we.

799
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,639
Speaker 2: Thought we'd jump on the train with Post Malone and

800
00:43:14,679 --> 00:43:16,199
Beyonce doing country albums.

801
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 3: So here you go, Blay can't wait.

802
00:43:18,079 --> 00:43:20,519
Speaker 1: That's your real inspiration, right post Malone and beyond.

803
00:43:20,559 --> 00:43:20,840
Speaker 3: That's it.

804
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,559
Speaker 1: We should remind people before we run out of time

805
00:43:26,639 --> 00:43:32,039
