1
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: That is very very catchy. I like that a lot

2
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,719
that has got a light and that is crying. Caleb,

3
00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:53,280
who is here with us morning, Welcome to the show,

4
00:01:53,439 --> 00:01:56,480
and of course returning to the show, Darling Hill. Hello,

5
00:01:56,959 --> 00:01:58,840
should we call you Darling Hill? Should we call you Kate?

6
00:01:58,879 --> 00:01:59,599
What should we call you?

7
00:02:00,239 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: I don't mind Darling Hill, I don't mind representation.

8
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I've had some people.

9
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: It's kind of funny and people started calling me Darling,

10
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:07,840
which kind of threw.

11
00:02:07,799 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: Oh really yeah, yeah yeah, I.

12
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 2: Didn't hate it though. I thought it was kind of cute,

13
00:02:12,479 --> 00:02:16,240
right right, So thanks, not the worst thing. And of course, uh,

14
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,280
you've you've been doing a lot with the listening room

15
00:02:19,319 --> 00:02:20,319
at Prayers of Nature.

16
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we said, oh you know what too. Before we

17
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,039
go any further, let me hold this up for people

18
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,479
watching online. I'll hold up this cool sticker you brought

19
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,120
us from the listening room at Prayers of Nature.

20
00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 2: Thank you.

21
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 1: So for those who don't know, refresh our memory on

22
00:02:34,159 --> 00:02:36,719
our memories collectively, on what that is what you do there.

23
00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:38,719
Speaker 2: Well, I do want to give a quick shout out

24
00:02:38,759 --> 00:02:40,840
to the artist of that picture you've shown is my

25
00:02:40,879 --> 00:02:44,360
friend Victoria. Her business name is actually I have Ethereal.

26
00:02:44,719 --> 00:02:47,840
She's a tattoo artist in Nashua. She's located under the

27
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,960
Riverwalk Cafe. She's fabulous and we just released a couple

28
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,520
of new images as she did as well yesterday.

29
00:02:54,759 --> 00:02:56,159
Speaker 3: Okay, so that's cool.

30
00:02:56,199 --> 00:02:59,319
Speaker 2: She's been working with me since we started. So I

31
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,319
just wanted to create a little space for musicians to

32
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,199
come and share their art in a way that is

33
00:03:06,439 --> 00:03:11,240
nurturing and celebrating who they are. As I did it

34
00:03:11,319 --> 00:03:14,199
years ago out of my home, but I kind of

35
00:03:14,479 --> 00:03:16,280
took a break, and as you know, I met you

36
00:03:16,319 --> 00:03:19,599
after I came back from Nashville and elevated a little

37
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,919
bit and wanted to share that elevation with the artists

38
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,879
that I work with locally. So create this small little

39
00:03:25,879 --> 00:03:30,680
space and Caleb will be number eleven, so excellent. I

40
00:03:30,759 --> 00:03:32,319
started with one. I was like, I'm just going to

41
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,120
do one show month.

42
00:03:33,159 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: That's it.

43
00:03:33,439 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: I don't want to overdo it. I got the small

44
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,800
little art studio, and then it turned and do well,

45
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,439
since I have the gear out, I'll do two, you know,

46
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,639
like a Friday Saturday. And then it turned into oh,

47
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,719
i'll do it Thursday, Friday Saturday. So it's still once

48
00:03:44,759 --> 00:03:48,000
a month, but it's usually three shows in one weekend, okay,

49
00:03:48,159 --> 00:03:51,599
And so yes, Caleb is number eleven. Good And I've

50
00:03:51,639 --> 00:03:56,080
had the fortune of having people from not just New Hampshire,

51
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,439
but getting the attention from people from Maine and New

52
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,000
York and Connecticut basically a little in New England nugget.

53
00:04:02,039 --> 00:04:04,360
And once they hear the deal, they either decide to

54
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,120
come be a part of it or there they get

55
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,479
put on a waiting list because I am fully booked.

56
00:04:09,599 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: So oh that's good. Yeah, that's that's a good problem

57
00:04:12,159 --> 00:04:12,639
now right.

58
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:16,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty interesting. I think people you know, I'm

59
00:04:16,639 --> 00:04:19,240
a musician myself, and I do understand. I try to

60
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,160
accommodate what I would like, so people who see that,

61
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,920
I think it attracts them. And Caleb reached out after

62
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,800
Dan Blakesley swung through, Oh yeah, which was real helpful

63
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:31,800
to I don't know if you've heard of him.

64
00:04:32,199 --> 00:04:34,959
Speaker 1: I interviewed Dan Blakesley a long time ago. Yeah, yeah,

65
00:04:34,959 --> 00:04:36,759
a lot, because he's been around a while. Wasn't stopped,

66
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:38,680
Yeah a long time ago.

67
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 2: Wow, he hasn't stopped. So yeah, I'm really excited to

68
00:04:42,319 --> 00:04:44,560
have another main artist. Or is he from Maine? He's

69
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,680
from me. Yeah, so I really like what Maine's doing.

70
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:50,959
So New Hampshire pay attention.

71
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: Yes, well, what what is Main doing that we're not

72
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:53,920
doing here?

73
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 2: I think they're just weirder, Man, They're just weirder. I

74
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,519
think it's further north, there's less bs up there. Yeah,

75
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,079
there's something going on. Yeah, closer to the sky. I think, ah, interesting, interesting,

76
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,360
it's funkier, it's weirder, it's spookier. I think they embrace

77
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,920
that a little more so than in this area. I

78
00:05:11,959 --> 00:05:14,800
think here is from my perception from what I've seen,

79
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,279
is the local music scene here seems to really hyper

80
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,839
fixated on like pop country or folk, or like like

81
00:05:21,879 --> 00:05:24,199
a heavy metal vibe and even some punk. But I

82
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:28,959
haven't seen this like cool spooky rockability. I don't even

83
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,800
know what to call you sometimes, like I know what

84
00:05:30,879 --> 00:05:32,879
you are, but trying to articulate it to other people.

85
00:05:32,879 --> 00:05:34,480
What Caleb does is well yeah.

86
00:05:34,319 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: Cause we were talking off air about how and I

87
00:05:36,639 --> 00:05:39,519
was saying, Caleb, how I don't like listening to your

88
00:05:39,879 --> 00:05:41,959
and we should tell the audience too, not everything that

89
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,680
you obviously is an instrumental We open with an instrumental track,

90
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,360
but we're going to play some I love your voice,

91
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:47,639
so I'm looking forward to playing some of the other

92
00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:50,759
stuff too. But I can't think of anybody around here

93
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:54,680
who really sounds like you and what you're doing. But so,

94
00:05:54,879 --> 00:05:55,680
what do you think it is?

95
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 4: Like?

96
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: What's different about where your area is?

97
00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 3: Someone's sent me a photo the other day that said

98
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:10,120
inspirational Western sci fi interesting okay, like from a library,

99
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,680
and I was like, oh, now I know what to

100
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:12,439
call myself.

101
00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 2: Spaghetti Western, maybe a.

102
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:22,439
Speaker 3: Little spaghetti western rockabilly country blues music I really like

103
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,720
and that I've been writing for a long time, and

104
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:33,360
I've played in bands playing music I've written, and I'm

105
00:06:33,399 --> 00:06:36,279
proud of, you know, every band I've been in. But

106
00:06:37,319 --> 00:06:40,879
I moved to Auburn, Maine after living in Portland for

107
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,879
over twenty years, and Auburn, Maine's a little more central Maine, okay,

108
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,639
And I didn't really know anyone up there, and getting

109
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:52,720
a band together was just kind of a pain. And

110
00:06:52,759 --> 00:06:56,240
then setting up practices in Portland with people willing to play,

111
00:06:56,319 --> 00:06:59,879
it was just scheduling stuff. So I just started playing

112
00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:04,959
on my own, just using my feet and my arms

113
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,199
and my voice, and I realized it's a lot less

114
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,160
hassle and it's a means to an end. I can

115
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,319
play my songs and I can agree to play anywhere

116
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,759
at the drop of a hat. I'll have to run

117
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,839
anything by a committee. I can do anything I want.

118
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,079
Speaker 1: That's been a consistent theme on the show over the

119
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,040
years with guests who who are doing a solo thing

120
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,160
who used to play in bands. Right, it's like, oh,

121
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:31,399
this is actually easier logistically.

122
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 3: Oh it is. It's easier logistically, and you know, I

123
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,120
would I'm not against it. I would love to someday

124
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,279
have a band to play with. It's a lot. I

125
00:07:41,319 --> 00:07:47,480
love playing standing up, but it's just, you know, money's

126
00:07:47,519 --> 00:07:50,040
a thing, and I don't want to pay anybody. I

127
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,560
don't want to play without getting paid if they're playing,

128
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,360
if they're backing somebody up, and I get that. Yeah,

129
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,560
But for now, I'm having a blast just doing it myself,

130
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,639
packing up the cars. Sometimes I bring my dog yep,

131
00:08:01,959 --> 00:08:06,759
you know. And I could go on weekend tours and yeah,

132
00:08:06,759 --> 00:08:09,079
I don't. If I can do it, I can do it.

133
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:10,680
I don't have to run it by anybody.

134
00:08:10,839 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, Do you miss Portland at all, because that's

135
00:08:13,079 --> 00:08:15,480
a great that's a great scene in Portland there's always

136
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,639
a lot of good bands around. Sure, seems like, but

137
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:18,399
you don't miss it.

138
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 3: No, Now, I miss a memory of what Portland was.

139
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,800
It's not what it was, and I mean it's a

140
00:08:23,839 --> 00:08:26,800
great place, but just having lived there. When I lived there,

141
00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:30,199
I was joking with somebody that there were five restaurants. Really,

142
00:08:30,279 --> 00:08:34,960
oh there were maybe ten. Yeah, and it was you

143
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,679
could afford to live there. Yeah, it was dirtier, people

144
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:45,159
were maybe a little there was they were more rude. Okay,

145
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,559
it was it was just a little more fun. And uh,

146
00:08:49,759 --> 00:08:53,080
you know that parable when they talk about the frog

147
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,240
and boiling water that doesn't realize it's boiling until it's

148
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,000
too late. That's kind of how I felt while I

149
00:08:58,039 --> 00:08:59,879
was living there. I was like, wow, this water is

150
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:00,960
it's boiling.

151
00:09:03,759 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: Interesting.

152
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 3: I played. I mean, I'm playing there tonight. I'll be

153
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,960
at Geno's. Yeah, And so I'm there a couple of

154
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,559
times a month for shows or to see friends bands play.

155
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:14,799
And I have a lot of friends that live there.

156
00:09:14,799 --> 00:09:16,000
But I don't miss living there.

157
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,519
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, No, that's good. It's good that you're happy

158
00:09:18,519 --> 00:09:20,080
where you are. Oh yeah, that's awesome.

159
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 3: I love Yeah, I like river Folk now.

160
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: Do you think that's influenced what you do creatively? Like

161
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,039
or do you think if you were doing a solo

162
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,759
thing in Portland you'd be doing the same thing.

163
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,159
Speaker 3: Or I'd probably be doing the same thing. But I think,

164
00:09:36,639 --> 00:09:40,039
you know, being up there, I wouldn't say I'm isolated,

165
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,320
but definitely left to my own devices. More as far

166
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,120
as like music, again, like playing alone, I'm just I

167
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,240
bounce ideas off the wall and back to me.

168
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: Exactly. So what drew you to performing at prayers of

169
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,360
Nature or the listening room rather at listening room at

170
00:10:00,039 --> 00:10:04,080
a look.

171
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 3: Like a cool it looked like a cool place. I mean,

172
00:10:04,759 --> 00:10:09,559
I'm I playing alone. It's a hustle. I'm I'm I

173
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,799
send out at least one email or message or something

174
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:18,440
a day to somebody, and uh, you know, sometimes you

175
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,720
hear back. Sometimes you hear back and there's enthusiasms. Sometimes

176
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,519
you hear back and you have to plead your case

177
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,679
to people of why you should be there to play.

178
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,720
But uh, in this in this case, I sent an

179
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,399
inquiry and I got a lot of enthusiasm back, which

180
00:10:34,519 --> 00:10:36,600
right there, it's like, yeah, okay, I want to play

181
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,159
at this place, And yeah, it just looked cool, and

182
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,919
i'd never been to Wilton, New Hampshire.

183
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:42,279
Speaker 5: Yeah.

184
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, you probably hear that a lot, right.

185
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 2: Try to find the place tucked away. It's definitely what

186
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,279
you call a hidden gem. It's in a it's in

187
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,759
an art mill, so it's pretty cool once you find it.

188
00:10:55,759 --> 00:10:59,039
Once people discover it, they're like, oh cool, you know. Yeah,

189
00:10:59,279 --> 00:11:01,600
it's different sense so that you would find a weird

190
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:02,759
little nook.

191
00:11:02,799 --> 00:11:06,279
Speaker 1: Right right. Has it changed much by the way since

192
00:11:06,279 --> 00:11:09,200
you opened, because because I think if I remember correctly,

193
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,919
so you had been on the show when you were

194
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,480
either about to start or you had just started it.

195
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean with us, Yeah we just started it. Yeah,

196
00:11:17,039 --> 00:11:19,840
you hadn't had it yet, okay, right right now. I've

197
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,240
had ten of them since I've last been here. Yeah yeah,

198
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,240
I thought six months have gone by already. And I

199
00:11:24,279 --> 00:11:26,000
was like, well, come to an update, And then I

200
00:11:26,039 --> 00:11:28,120
booked him and I was like, you want to come

201
00:11:28,159 --> 00:11:28,399
with me?

202
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 1: Yeah?

203
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:29,919
Speaker 3: Yeah.

204
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:30,519
Speaker 1: It's like, if.

205
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,919
Speaker 2: Anything, can you play your music and just talk about you?

206
00:11:32,919 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 4: You know?

207
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 3: Yeah?

208
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he was.

209
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,159
Speaker 2: I was happy that he's physically with us today.

210
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:38,159
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Yeah.

211
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 2: But I guess what's changed is my commitment to making

212
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,240
sure that the sound is as good as it can

213
00:11:47,279 --> 00:11:50,000
be in the lighting, and because I'm recognizing that the

214
00:11:50,039 --> 00:11:55,000
online presence is really important, absolutely, and it's been helpful

215
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,440
to me and exciting because I didn't really have much

216
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:04,519
optimism when I started. Really I didn't. I hadn't been

217
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:09,320
in the booking a venue scene in about three years.

218
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,159
I had taken a break. I had taken a break

219
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,799
because I was burnt out and I'd done it for

220
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,480
other people. I'd done it for myself. I'd done it

221
00:12:14,519 --> 00:12:16,960
as a musician. I'd done it as a venue. Yeah,

222
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,240
I've done it as a nonprofit. I had done it.

223
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,320
I did it, and I was like, I'm done. And

224
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,000
that's when I took a break and focused on my

225
00:12:23,039 --> 00:12:27,159
own music. So when I jump back into supporting other artists,

226
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,480
I was a little apprehensive because obviously it comes with

227
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,600
a lot of drama and a lot of egos and

228
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,639
I have to manage them and it affects my relationships,

229
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,879
and I just was went in really apprehensively and really guarded.

230
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,120
But the more I did it, every show I had,

231
00:12:43,159 --> 00:12:45,600
I was like, yes, this is what I want. I

232
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,879
love this part of meeting such unique artists and being

233
00:12:49,919 --> 00:12:51,919
able to support them and just making them feel good

234
00:12:51,919 --> 00:12:54,919
about themselves made me feel good about myself, and I

235
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,919
think that finally shone through in the social media and

236
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,679
it resonated. Yeah, so I think that's what changed for

237
00:13:02,759 --> 00:13:06,080
me personally. And I wish I could do it every weekend,

238
00:13:06,159 --> 00:13:11,360
but I wouldn't have the fuel probably to do it.

239
00:13:11,399 --> 00:13:13,080
So it's good. I just I got to set that

240
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,279
boundary with three and just make people wait, I guess

241
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:17,320
if they want to come do it.

242
00:13:17,399 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: So you mentioned too, you're hearing from people. It sounds

243
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,360
like you're hearing from people all over the Northeast at

244
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:21,759
this point.

245
00:13:21,919 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, you know, and it's it's a bummer too,

246
00:13:24,879 --> 00:13:27,000
because the second I recognize they're a little too far away,

247
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,919
I'm gonna have to have the conversation with them about

248
00:13:28,919 --> 00:13:31,720
how we we don't offer a guarantee. I'm pretty transparent

249
00:13:31,759 --> 00:13:38,679
about that. Yeah, but I will I I will hustle

250
00:13:38,759 --> 00:13:40,720
for you and if you meet me halfway, we will

251
00:13:40,759 --> 00:13:42,679
do what we can. And I don't take a cut

252
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,080
unless the room even sells out. So like, I'm not

253
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,919
here to take your money, I'm really here to share

254
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,600
your art. So yeah, for some people, though, that John

255
00:13:49,799 --> 00:13:52,039
is just a little too far. You know, as much

256
00:13:52,039 --> 00:13:53,559
as they want to come play, they're like, oh, man,

257
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,240
I can't do it. But you know, I will say

258
00:13:56,279 --> 00:13:59,399
too something Caleb touched on, and then I'll shut up.

259
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,200
As you position myself. Whenever I reach out and try

260
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,759
to get bookings, not getting a response, I would rather

261
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:07,240
get a no.

262
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 4: Oh.

263
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,879
Speaker 2: I would rather get oh, we're booked, or you know,

264
00:14:10,879 --> 00:14:13,200
I'd rather get some kind of like confirmation that you

265
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,000
at least saw my stuff right, and like, if it's

266
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,879
not for you, you don't think it's a good fit, that's fine.

267
00:14:17,879 --> 00:14:19,679
But I get so irritated wh I don't even get

268
00:14:19,679 --> 00:14:21,840
a response. So I try to at least respond to people.

269
00:14:21,919 --> 00:14:23,919
Even though I get a lot of inquiries. I will

270
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:24,559
respond to you.

271
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:25,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I will.

272
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's a no and for whatever reason, but I

273
00:14:30,039 --> 00:14:33,879
will let you know so you can move about with

274
00:14:33,919 --> 00:14:35,519
your bookings accordingly.

275
00:14:35,919 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, was there a point where you started to feel like, oh,

276
00:14:40,879 --> 00:14:42,840
this is really going to work or this is going

277
00:14:42,879 --> 00:14:44,799
to catch on more than I expected.

278
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 2: I was surprised by the response. For musicians, I want

279
00:14:49,039 --> 00:14:52,840
a more solid patronage, but that will just happen over time. Sure,

280
00:14:52,919 --> 00:14:56,519
I recognize that and bringing people in that aren't normally

281
00:14:56,559 --> 00:14:59,320
from here. Is helpful people willing to take the risk

282
00:14:59,399 --> 00:15:01,960
and come out share their art with us, And you know,

283
00:15:02,039 --> 00:15:05,000
in doing that, I've already gained just beginning Dan in there,

284
00:15:05,039 --> 00:15:07,159
I had people from town that it never even knew

285
00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:09,480
I existed down there, and they know Dan, so they

286
00:15:09,759 --> 00:15:10,639
don't want to come back.

287
00:15:10,759 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

288
00:15:11,039 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 2: So you know, every once in a while there's people

289
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,919
in town that follow these artists that will come and

290
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,440
then they want to come back to more. So I'm

291
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:18,879
hoping by the end of the year I have a

292
00:15:19,559 --> 00:15:20,240
solid crew.

293
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fantastic.

294
00:15:21,519 --> 00:15:24,159
Speaker 2: Now you know, twenty seats, you know I could do it.

295
00:15:24,279 --> 00:15:29,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, that's fantastic. Yeah, Caleb, is this well, what

296
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,559
is the show actually? When?

297
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:31,879
Speaker 2: Saturday? Next week?

298
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: Next Saturday?

299
00:15:32,759 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's the nineteenth nineteenth.

300
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,559
Speaker 1: Will this be the most kind of unique situation for

301
00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:41,799
you in terms of where you've played, because this is

302
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,679
obviously you know, there's nothing quite like you know, the

303
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,879
listening room, this is, this is different.

304
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,159
Speaker 3: It's definitely the most unique I think of the summer. Yeah,

305
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,519
for sure, to have like my own basically like my

306
00:15:55,559 --> 00:15:59,679
own recital concert. The rest of the shows I'm playing

307
00:15:59,679 --> 00:16:03,080
this year or on bills with other artists, which is great.

308
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:05,120
It is fun, and they'll be you know, thirty five

309
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,240
forty minute sets, or I have a couple two or

310
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:14,600
three hour nights where I'm just you know, playing in

311
00:16:14,639 --> 00:16:19,480
the corner somewhere, which is fine. Yeah, And but this

312
00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:23,679
will be like, yeah, this is probably the only like

313
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:30,799
solo kind of recital to an interested audience that's there

314
00:16:31,039 --> 00:16:35,559
just for and I'll you know, I have more time

315
00:16:35,639 --> 00:16:40,639
to you know, explain myself by you know, talk talk

316
00:16:40,679 --> 00:16:43,919
about the song. The song, Yeah, talk about the songs.

317
00:16:44,799 --> 00:16:47,240
I can touch on that a little bit sometimes, but

318
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,240
I'll actually have time to do that, or or play

319
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:54,679
songs I don't play all that often. Like I've been

320
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,879
thinking about, Oh, well I have you know, I've been

321
00:16:56,919 --> 00:17:00,960
making a list of stuff if I need to practice

322
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:02,679
that I haven't played in a while that I'm looking

323
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,079
forward to to playing.

324
00:17:04,279 --> 00:17:07,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, Oh very cool. Well we should

325
00:17:07,319 --> 00:17:09,480
play another one of these studio tracks that you sent

326
00:17:09,559 --> 00:17:12,799
us and we had talked what was we had talked

327
00:17:12,839 --> 00:17:14,839
off here about one specifically.

328
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,599
Speaker 3: Sad sci fi part one?

329
00:17:16,759 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, tell us about this?

330
00:17:18,519 --> 00:17:25,400
Speaker 3: Well this My favorite genre of movies or television or

331
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:30,119
or books is sad science fiction. It's science fiction that's

332
00:17:30,599 --> 00:17:34,359
you know, usually depressing because it's maybe a little less fiction,

333
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:39,000
more nonfiction like apocalyptics. Yeah, you know, if you ever

334
00:17:39,039 --> 00:17:42,839
watched The Outer Limits, like The Outer Limits was one

335
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,240
of my it's one of my favorite shows. It's like

336
00:17:45,319 --> 00:17:50,480
Twilight Zone, but it's purely science fiction. The episodes are longer,

337
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,880
it's slower, darker. Yeah, and a lot of times it

338
00:17:55,079 --> 00:17:57,920
ends just on a really down beat, right right, And

339
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,960
I just love that. I mean, that's what like fizz really.

340
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,880
I mean, it's it's a horror. We can find joy

341
00:18:05,279 --> 00:18:08,359
here and there, but I mean we shouldn't be here.

342
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,440
It's a struggle until you're dead. And that's the one

343
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,680
thing we have guaranteed to us, right. And this is

344
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,880
a song I wrote just the the the idea of,

345
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,119
you know, we need optimistic people, we need people looking

346
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:29,079
out for everyone, and I appreciate that, and and I

347
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,359
honor that I am not one of those people, and

348
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,319
and just the idea of of what what I see.

349
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,720
I mean, the song is less fiction, I guess that

350
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:44,200
I think. But like this this we're circling the drain,

351
00:18:44,599 --> 00:18:45,960
I guess. And that's where.

352
00:18:47,599 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: On that note, well, by the way, Maria Vanish and

353
00:18:50,279 --> 00:18:52,359
the chat room says outer Limits one of my favorites

354
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:53,319
can be so scary.

355
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:54,759
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I've.

356
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,319
Speaker 1: Always been aware of the show, but I don't think

357
00:18:56,319 --> 00:18:57,480
I've ever actually seen the show.

358
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 3: It's it's fantastic.

359
00:18:58,799 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I might have to check it out. It sound

360
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,359
like something I would be interested in. Yeah, all right,

361
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,519
so we will. Uh so let's give this suspend. And

362
00:19:04,559 --> 00:19:06,279
by the way, where are these uh these are from?

363
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:07,279
You have an album or.

364
00:19:07,319 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 3: I have a I have a brand new album out

365
00:19:09,039 --> 00:19:13,039
called Cold Heart, Volume one. It was recorded live in

366
00:19:13,079 --> 00:19:18,039
the studio in Somerville, mass by my friend Sean Kerran

367
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,920
at the Napoleon Complex. And you just set up a

368
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,319
bunch of mics, hit record and I just blew through

369
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,119
my set, and uh, it was an incredible experience. And

370
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,000
it sounded so good that that was live, that was recording. Yeah,

371
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,960
it's all live, no overdubs, and I was recorded in

372
00:19:36,039 --> 00:19:36,599
the studio.

373
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,039
Speaker 1: Kind of doesn't surprise me because there's a there's a

374
00:19:40,039 --> 00:19:42,680
certain raw energy to to uh, you know, because I

375
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,079
listened to the tracks that you sent and there's there's

376
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,720
kind of a raw energy to them. It sounds it

377
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,400
sounds like it was recorded, you know what I mean.

378
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was great, no headphones. You just put a

379
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:55,240
monitor in front of my face, and.

380
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,279
Speaker 2: I feel like he mixed it well though. When you

381
00:19:57,319 --> 00:19:59,319
said that, he's like the energy is there, But I

382
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,079
was like, wow, this is actually I can't. I was

383
00:20:01,079 --> 00:20:03,960
actually having a hard time discerning. That's great though, in

384
00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:05,039
a good way.

385
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, he knows what he's doing, you know, clearly, clearly.

386
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:14,119
And yeah, so a new album out And if you

00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 6: We spend it thinking other things. Wait, Ama thinks.

408
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 4: Wait, no one is coming to say buzz.

409
00:22:43,799 --> 00:22:45,799

411
00:23:03,519 --> 00:23:17,759
No one he's coming to collect.

412
00:23:31,039 --> 00:23:34,319
Speaker 1: There we go, sorry, said sci Fi part one. That

413
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,759
is crying Caleb, and that is what's.

414
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 3: The name of the album? We get cold Heart Volume one?

415
00:23:39,319 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: Cold Heart Volume one, So there's going to be a

416
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:41,920
volume two, I assume.

417
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right.

418
00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:46,039
Speaker 1: I was wondering when when I hear somebody call something

419
00:23:46,079 --> 00:23:50,240
part one, only because in the eighties when Hall and

420
00:23:50,279 --> 00:23:52,559
Oates released Rock and Soul Part one, they never put

421
00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:55,839
out a part two. So whenever I hear that yet, yeah, yes,

422
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,680
but it ain't gonna happen now apparently.

423
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,039
Speaker 2: They're all upset, but Oasis is back together, so it's fine.

424
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:08,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, so anything anything can happen tomorrow. Hollano, No, that

425
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,240
song I was I was commenting off air. You know

426
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,920
it's dark and it's sad, but it's also funny. Oh

427
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,759
you know, I like the I like the sense of humor,

428
00:24:15,799 --> 00:24:17,440
you know, very dark humor.

429
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 3: But hilarious, no going to laugh.

430
00:24:21,559 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: And I guess it's funny because it's true, right, I think.

431
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 2: Too, what you what you did too with that song

432
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:28,440
is you kind of made it timeless?

433
00:24:28,839 --> 00:24:29,039
Speaker 1: You know.

434
00:24:29,279 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 2: It's one of those ones where I'm like, oh, is

435
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,119
he talking about right now or is he talking about?

436
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:34,240
Like what is it? What is it?

437
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:34,759
Speaker 3: Exactly?

438
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 2: He's putting hitting the nail on the head on your right.

439
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,680
You didn't you didn't put it in a box, which

440
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:39,599
I thought was great too.

441
00:24:39,759 --> 00:24:43,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Yeah, timeless, not only in terms of

442
00:24:43,319 --> 00:24:47,519
the lyrics, but in terms of the production. Because you

443
00:24:47,559 --> 00:24:49,799
could have told me that came from any point and

444
00:24:49,839 --> 00:24:52,440
I would have believed you, you know what I mean, Like,

445
00:24:52,759 --> 00:24:54,680
if you told me that was recorded in the seventies,

446
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,079
I would have believed you. But but it was recorded now,

447
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,759
and I obviously recorded a few months it was recorded

448
00:25:00,759 --> 00:25:02,759
a few months ago. Yeah, and and it's but so

449
00:25:02,839 --> 00:25:05,039
it's got that timeless quality to it, which I think

450
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,359
is is really cool. You know. I also want to

451
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,079
ask you, so you're also saying off air about because

452
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:13,920
you're you're effectively I don't know if you even like

453
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,880
the term maybe not one man band, but you were

454
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,880
saying off air, I thought this was a really interesting,

455
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,599
uh comment, that people will kind of suggest other solo

456
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,319
artists who do kind of what you do all the time,

457
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,319
and and you avoid listening to those.

458
00:25:29,559 --> 00:25:33,319
Speaker 3: It's uh yeah, I mean, if I hear it, it's fine,

459
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,319
and I of course appreciate what they're doing because I'm

460
00:25:37,319 --> 00:25:39,039
doing the same thing. But I don't want it to

461
00:25:39,319 --> 00:25:41,839
get in my head, yeah kind of thing. Maybe it's

462
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:48,640
a I don't know, it's it. I don't like, I

463
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:52,559
don't want to be too influenced by the techniques of

464
00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:55,000
what other people do. I can definitely appreciate them like

465
00:25:55,039 --> 00:25:57,720
I and if I'm playing a show with one, of

466
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,359
course it's fun to watch, but like, I don't spend

467
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,319
my time listening like seeking out other one man bands

468
00:26:03,319 --> 00:26:06,319
and listening to them. Yeah, you know, for me, the

469
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,240
one man band thing, it's a means to an end.

470
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,519
It's just I want to play my songs, but I

471
00:26:10,599 --> 00:26:17,279
don't want to play acoustic. Yeah, solo thing, which is great.

472
00:26:17,319 --> 00:26:18,880
I know so many people who are good at it.

473
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,759
I am not good at it. I want to rock

474
00:26:22,799 --> 00:26:25,480
and roll, and this is how I can do it,

475
00:26:25,519 --> 00:26:27,279
And this is how I can perform my songs. And

476
00:26:27,319 --> 00:26:30,559
I love to perform, so yeah, yeah, it's it's just

477
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,000
a way to do it.

478
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,079
Speaker 1: So when you're playing live, so you have an electric right,

479
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:36,759
so you're not yeah, so you're not doing the singer

480
00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:40,279
songwriter thing with an acoustic No, and then you're stomping

481
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:41,240
for the percussion, right.

482
00:26:41,319 --> 00:26:45,079
Speaker 3: Yeah. I have a bass drum, a high hat, a guitar,

483
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:50,039
and an amp. Yeah, and you know, I that's how

484
00:26:50,079 --> 00:26:52,240
I do it. Yeah. I can load in and out

485
00:26:52,279 --> 00:26:56,200
of anywhere usually within ten minutes. Yeah, it doesn't take

486
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,440
me long to set up and yeah, I go.

487
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 1: You know, venue must love that.

488
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:05,039
Speaker 3: They do well. It's funny. I'll play a lot of

489
00:27:05,279 --> 00:27:07,880
I play a lot of places, like smaller places, and

490
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,720
they'll be they'll hear like the recorded material and they'll

491
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,599
be like, you might be too loud, and I promise

492
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:14,359
them I am not.

493
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:14,759
Speaker 4: Like.

494
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 3: I'm very self aware of my tone how I want

495
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,559
to sound, and I have done a lot of work

496
00:27:21,599 --> 00:27:24,319
to make sure I can capture that tone at pretty

497
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:29,319
much any volume, different wattage. So if I'm playing, if

498
00:27:29,319 --> 00:27:32,720
I were playing in here, I could make it work.

499
00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:34,920
You know in this and I say in here you

500
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,559
can't see it, but it's a little room or on

501
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,559
a big stage, like I can adapt so I can

502
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,559
play smaller places and it's still sounds like me, but

503
00:27:46,599 --> 00:27:48,920
it's not going to stab anyone in the ear.

504
00:27:51,519 --> 00:27:55,519
Speaker 1: So was it challenging to learn to do that? Because well,

505
00:27:55,559 --> 00:27:57,920
obviously so you actually this is something you mentioned off

506
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,640
air too. You've also been a drummer, right, yes, so

507
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,519
obviously with drums, you know, that's the one instrument where

508
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,039
typically someone's using all four of their limbs. So maybe

509
00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:09,519
it wasn't challenging. I mean, was it challenging learn to

510
00:28:09,559 --> 00:28:10,079
do well?

511
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,799
Speaker 3: No, I mean there was a little bit of time,

512
00:28:11,839 --> 00:28:14,079
but it came pretty natural because I tap my foot

513
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:19,799
when I play. I'm really excited to tempo and feeling

514
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,319
like I guess I hate the word but groove of

515
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,720
what I'm doing. But I was just talking with a

516
00:28:25,759 --> 00:28:28,359
friend of mine the other day. While I'm doing it,

517
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,759
I'm not thinking about everything I'm doing all at once.

518
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:35,119
It's automatic, like it's just I'm just doing it. Like

519
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:40,359
and if I'm singing, my concentration is on the singing.

520
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,359
If I'm playing guitar solo, my concentrations on the guitar solo,

521
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,599
what my feet are doing. I mean, I'm aware of them,

522
00:28:46,599 --> 00:28:49,880
but I'm not. If I start thinking about it, I

523
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,759
will crash. And it's funny because I am I'm not

524
00:28:53,839 --> 00:28:55,039
a very coordinated person.

525
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: Really.

526
00:28:55,599 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 3: I joke with my old lady all the time, like

527
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,119
gravity is a lot stronger around me than anywhere else.

528
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,119
Drop stuff, always bumping into things. Oh it look like

529
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,759
a moron when I'm loading stuff around. But when I'm

530
00:29:08,799 --> 00:29:12,680
sitting playing, yeah, it seems very graceful.

531
00:29:12,799 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: It's like I am just not I can absolutely relate

532
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:22,799
to that. Yeah. So yeah, so when you yeah, I

533
00:29:23,079 --> 00:29:25,200
remember the first time I saw somebody do anything like

534
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,640
that was uh, John Hot years ago. Boy, this must

535
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,480
have been like twenty years ago. I saw John Hyatt

536
00:29:31,519 --> 00:29:34,720
live and conquered and and it was cool. You know,

537
00:29:34,759 --> 00:29:36,279
he doesn't and he doesn't have like a little drum

538
00:29:36,359 --> 00:29:39,319
kit or anything. He would just stand out with his guitar,

539
00:29:39,559 --> 00:29:42,039
but he had there was a microphone obviously on the floor.

540
00:29:42,039 --> 00:29:43,559
They had the floor micd and he would, you know,

541
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,759
start tapping his foot and it just sounded so cool though. Yeah,

542
00:29:46,799 --> 00:29:48,640
when he when he started doing that, because it it

543
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,400
surprises the audience a little bit too, because you know,

544
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,440
he's just out there with his guitar, so you think

545
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,319
he's just because it was an acoustic show. Obviously, he

546
00:29:55,359 --> 00:29:56,640
did a lot of tours where he played with the

547
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,000
full band, but this particular tour is just an acoustic

548
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,240
tour and it was just him the guitar, so you

549
00:30:01,279 --> 00:30:03,240
almost don't expect it. And then he starts tapping and

550
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,279
there's obviously a mic on the floor. It's like, oh,

551
00:30:05,279 --> 00:30:06,200
that sounds really good.

552
00:30:06,519 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's great. I mean, I've seen before I

553
00:30:09,279 --> 00:30:11,920
started doing this, I had seen a few one man

554
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:16,559
bands perform, and I remember loving it, but also thinking

555
00:30:16,599 --> 00:30:19,079
like I could do that. M like I could do that,

556
00:30:19,799 --> 00:30:23,119
and I'd even tell people, you know, I could do that. Yeah,

557
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,680
And eventually I did that well during COVID times my

558
00:30:27,799 --> 00:30:30,599
band wasn't playing, of course, yeah, and I got really bored.

559
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,119
So that was when I started like practicing it and

560
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,000
doing it and putting up videos and stuff. And then

561
00:30:37,559 --> 00:30:41,599
once things started opening back up, I started playing with

562
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,359
the drummer again and that was fine. And then, like

563
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,240
I said, when I moved up to Auburn, Maine, I

564
00:30:47,279 --> 00:30:52,359
decided to just do it one man band, but no,

565
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,359
I mean people have been doing it since forever. Yeah,

566
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,400
I mean, it's it's a I like it. It's kind

567
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,640
of a Carneye Carnie trick. You know, it's it's it's

568
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,839
a sideshow thing, and it's it's I try not the

569
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,519
I'm serious. The songs there can be serious. They're funny

570
00:31:09,519 --> 00:31:12,319
and like, I'm serious about that, but I also realize

571
00:31:12,359 --> 00:31:16,240
it's pretty ridiculous and it's fun it's funny. Sure, it's

572
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,720
funny to watch. Ye, some people when they're watching it,

573
00:31:18,759 --> 00:31:20,880
they're just like, oh yeah, it's.

574
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 1: Just I love it.

575
00:31:21,319 --> 00:31:24,079
Speaker 2: It comes out of one person. Yeah, I think it's cool.

576
00:31:24,079 --> 00:31:27,480
You've surrounded yourself with ways, in different ways to express yourself,

577
00:31:27,759 --> 00:31:30,039
and I really enjoy it.

578
00:31:30,079 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean, but it is I understand. I

579
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,119
recognize that it's pretty funny.

580
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: We should play another one. Let's see should we play?

581
00:31:41,359 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 5: What?

582
00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 1: Should we play?

583
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,519
Speaker 3: Oh? How She Dances is a fun one.

584
00:31:44,599 --> 00:31:47,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to learn about why you covered that,

585
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,400
because I don't know if you want to talk about

586
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,160
an hour after, But like I was hoping that that

587
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:52,559
would be the song i'd learn more about.

588
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, i'd heard, Oh yeah, I had heard it's I

589
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,519
didn't write this, you know. It's I'd heard one of

590
00:31:59,559 --> 00:32:04,319
my favorite artists, Taff Falco and the Panther Burns, do

591
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,920
this song, and I remember I just loved it. I

592
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,319
loved the whole Spieley gives and I remember thinking like,

593
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,640
I could do this song, yeah, a long time ago,

594
00:32:12,839 --> 00:32:16,400
and then I like looked it up and realized, like,

595
00:32:16,559 --> 00:32:18,519
you know, I didn't think it was his song, but

596
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:23,160
turns out it's just this old vaudevillian song from the

597
00:32:23,759 --> 00:32:27,240
like nineteen fifteen or something like that, and I was like, well,

598
00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:29,640
and this doesn't belong to anybody. I could definitely do

599
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,359
this song. And you know, I think, like any song

600
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,680
like that, it gets changed. So this is my version.

601
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,720
And I grew up in Old Orchard Beach, Maine, which

602
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:44,279
you know, I'm part Carney. Like that was downtown Old Orchard.

603
00:32:44,359 --> 00:32:47,960
That's a lot of us who grew up there, especially

604
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,759
like the time I grew up there, we started working downtown.

605
00:32:50,799 --> 00:32:54,240
I had my first job downtown hustling Taurus when I

606
00:32:54,279 --> 00:32:57,039
was like twelve years old, you know, And a lot

607
00:32:57,079 --> 00:33:00,319
of it's hustling Taurus. Some of it's just it's like

608
00:33:00,559 --> 00:33:02,799
food service. Some of them is trying to rope people

609
00:33:02,839 --> 00:33:05,759
in just rip them off, playing an impossible game that

610
00:33:05,799 --> 00:33:09,759
they're not going to win, you know. And I just

611
00:33:10,039 --> 00:33:16,240
the whole art of the circus and the traveling people

612
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,920
just fleecing roubes. I just think it's hilarious and like

613
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:25,480
humans are so easily manipulated and tricked into doing dumb

614
00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:28,960
stuff if they're told, yes, this is the right decision.

615
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:33,599
Speaker 1: Why is Old Orchard Beach like that specifically, just because well, it's.

616
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 3: A tourist town, but it's one of the places in

617
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:41,400
the Northeast. It's a working class vacation spot. It's where

618
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,960
working people can afford to go, where working people can

619
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,880
afford to take their families and keep them entertained. There's

620
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,240
games and rides. It's cheaper. I mean, it's not cheap,

621
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,519
but it's cheaper than going to a gun Quit or

622
00:33:55,079 --> 00:33:59,680
Kenny Bunk or Booth Bay Harbor or Kadia or anywhere

623
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:04,720
like that. It's it's it's kind of low grade entertainment

624
00:34:04,839 --> 00:34:08,559
for regular folks, okay, And so you get a lot

625
00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:11,880
of you know, working class people. You get some affluent people,

626
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,679
but most for the most part, it's just regular folks.

627
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: Oh, that's interesting.

628
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 3: Okay.

629
00:34:17,559 --> 00:34:19,199
Speaker 1: I was partly curious too, because I think I've only

630
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,280
been there once. But the first time I ever saw

631
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:22,119
Kiss was it older?

632
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 3: Oh there you go. Yeah, Yeah, that's a good band

633
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:26,079
for that town.

634
00:34:26,199 --> 00:34:30,159
Speaker 1: There you go interesting. Yeah, all right, So we're gonna

635
00:34:30,159 --> 00:34:31,920
give this a spend. So this is See I didn't

636
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,920
even know this was a cover. Yeah when I when

637
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,320
I listened to it.

638
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,599
Speaker 3: It's royalty. I wouldn't record a song that wasn't.

639
00:34:39,599 --> 00:34:40,559
Speaker 2: I didn't know if you paid.

640
00:34:41,039 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, all right, cool, all right, let's give

641
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,920
this a spin. This is how she dances, and this

642
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,280
is crime Caleb.

643
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,639
Speaker 6: Ladies and gentlemen are right this way.

644
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,679
Speaker 8: See the greatest conglomeration of curiosities ever gathered under one

645
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:11,440
canvas tent. See the Indian rubber Boy. See two ton

646
00:35:11,599 --> 00:35:16,039
Tiny the back of Lady. See Prince Jujububbo the sword swallower.

647
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,320
He is also the snake Charmer.

648
00:35:19,199 --> 00:35:20,280
Speaker 9: See the Lovely.

649
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,039
Speaker 8: Princess Karma performer spectacular dance sismond It high above the

650
00:35:24,079 --> 00:35:25,360
heads of the audience.

651
00:35:25,039 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 6: On a palet's surface, no larger than a silver dive.

652
00:35:30,519 --> 00:35:34,800
Speaker 8: She performs her dancity accompaniment to a strange Tom Tom orchestra,

653
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,679
lit by a myriad array of thousands of tiny electric

654
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:39,519
light bombs.

655
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 6: Every nerve, every muscle, every fiber of her body is

656
00:35:43,599 --> 00:35:45,119
shimmy's like jelly in the bowl.

657
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 8: So bring your friends, your neighbors, and your children, or

Speaker 8: Gentlemen, Right this way to see the incredible despicable geek

686
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,840
captured in the wilds of Old Orchard Beach Main, where

687
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,559
he was incarcerated in the attic by his parents at

688
00:37:42,599 --> 00:37:46,599
the tender age of fourteen. In order to survive, he

689
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:51,599
learned to eat my rats, live chickens, and other living organisms.

690
00:37:51,679 --> 00:37:54,079
Speaker 6: Yes, friends, heats.

691

00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,280
Caleb from the album Cold Heart Volume one. Hey, where's

00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:08,800
the name come from? By the way, Crime Caleb.

694
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,800
Speaker 3: Good question. Well, one of my I don't really believe

695
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,679
in heroes, but let's say I was someone who believed

696
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,000
in a hero. Sure one of them would be Scream

697
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:23,280
and Jay Hawkins Scream and Jay Howland Wolf. There's another

698
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,320
guy I like named Lonesome Wyatt. I like the you

699
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:31,119
know that title in Yeah my name you know it's

700
00:38:32,159 --> 00:38:35,639
Caleb Aaron Colthard, and Colthard is one of those names

701
00:38:35,639 --> 00:38:38,000
like in a loud room. If if I tell people

702
00:38:38,039 --> 00:38:39,679
my name, they say what was that? And I'm like,

703
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:44,079
exactly right right, And it was actually my friend Heather,

704
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:49,039
who painted the cover of the new album. When she

705
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,599
learned my real last last name, she was like cold

706
00:38:51,599 --> 00:38:54,880
heart and I was like, yeah, exactly, oh you know yeah,

707
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,880
And I had heard that before. An old teacher in

708
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:02,519
school used to say I had a cold heart, but no, yeah, crying.

709
00:39:02,599 --> 00:39:05,320
Caleb was just it's just I needed a name. Yeah,

710
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,119
and that was came up with it and I asked

711
00:39:08,119 --> 00:39:09,239
a few people. I was like, what do you think

712
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:11,000
of that? And they're like that's good, Yeah, all right,

713
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:12,880
yeah yeah yeah.

714
00:39:13,079 --> 00:39:15,119
Speaker 1: Well, by the way, Miriam said in the chat room,

715
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,880
feeling a little Tom Waits thing in this, is he

716
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,000
an influence on you? I didn't think of that until

717
00:39:21,119 --> 00:39:23,360
Miriam said that, but yeah, I can. I'm gonna hear it.

718
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean to to an extent. There's like three

719
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,639
Tom Waits records I really like, Yeah and yeah, I

720
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,519
like those three albums.

721
00:39:34,559 --> 00:39:35,199
Speaker 1: He's a unique.

722
00:39:35,599 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, he's not my favorite, but I definitely

723
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,440
the songs I like by him, I really really really

724
00:39:41,559 --> 00:39:45,199
like Yeah. But I'm I don't know if he's so

725
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:50,320
much an influence. Maybe just it's in there somewhere. We

726
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:55,119
know he's not a hero, no heroes. Yeah, it's good time.

727
00:39:57,639 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 2: I felt like I had, like I told when Dan came,

728
00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:01,239
and I feel the same way about you.

729
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:02,119
Speaker 3: I woke up.

730
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 2: I was in my house last night, and you're ready

731
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,199
for bed as like musical Santa's.

732
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 3: Coming tomorrow, musical.

733
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:07,679
Speaker 4: See.

734
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,280
Speaker 2: You may not be my hero, but you're my musical Santa.

735
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,920
I couldn't sleep last night. I was I haven't actually

736
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,280
met him. We've been talking online, so I booked him

737
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,719
and just getting to know each other. But I'm like,

738
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:18,719
I actually get to meet him.

739
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:23,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh that's cool. That's cool, very cool. Now, what

740
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,280
about so when is uh have you started working on

741
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:27,440
Coldhart Volume two yet?

742
00:40:27,519 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 3: Or well it's I okay. I put on an album

743
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,679
called night Hoss a few years ago and that was

744
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:42,559
like my first solo record, and after that, over the

745
00:40:42,679 --> 00:40:48,000
last few years, I've recorded a lot and then that

746
00:40:48,119 --> 00:40:50,119
was going to be the next album. But and then

747
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,880
out of nowhere, I got a show in Massachusetts and

748
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,199
I decided to make a weekend of it and book

749
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,760
another show while I was down there and studio time

750
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,480
and recorded and I was like, boom, that's the record.

751
00:41:01,639 --> 00:41:03,159
So I just put that out. But I still have

752
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,000
all these recordings I've done that I really like.

753
00:41:05,199 --> 00:41:05,559
Speaker 1: OK.

754
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 3: I think those are probably gonna come out in some

755
00:41:10,559 --> 00:41:14,840
shape or form. But cold Heart Volume two, I don't

756
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,880
even know if that will be the next album, but

757
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,400
there will be one. I imagine it will be another

758
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,760
one man band, like live in the studio, once I

759
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,280
get enough songs that I want to use that way,

760
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,480
because the other stuff I record, like my first album

761
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:35,079
night Hoss and singles I've put out. When I record those,

762
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:38,519
I actually record. I play drums, and I play bass,

763
00:41:38,559 --> 00:41:41,239
and I do guitar and couples. Like I record it

764
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,639
as a whole band, I'm still playing everything. I might

765
00:41:43,679 --> 00:41:46,280
have a guest play organ or something. I don't know

766
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:51,480
how to play on it. But the live show is

767
00:41:51,639 --> 00:41:54,440
one man band. And that's why this new album is

768
00:41:54,599 --> 00:41:57,039
the closest to like, this is what I sound like live.

769
00:41:57,199 --> 00:41:59,400
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, yeah, no, that makes sense. That makes

770
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:02,480
sense when you do some of the shows that you do,

771
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,039
if you have to play a long time, so you

772
00:42:04,119 --> 00:42:06,320
mix in some covers, originals.

773
00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 3: Yes I do. I do you know old country songs?

774
00:42:11,519 --> 00:42:14,079
I I don't do anything I don't like, that's for sure.

775
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,400
But I'll do a song I do Bela Lugosi's Dead

776
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:23,679
by the Bow House, a Forest by the Cure Echo

777
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,719
and the Bunnyman Morrissey.

778
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 2: You did one recently that or I don't know if

779
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,559
you did it recently, but I watched it recently with

780
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:33,360
the opening for Rocky Horror Pictures show.

781
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,320
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Rocky Horror. That's a fun one, the science

782
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:42,199
fiction double feature. Yeah, I'd do that one. Yeah, Kinks.

783
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:47,599
You know, there's some songs I've known my whole life,

784
00:42:48,159 --> 00:42:50,440
but I've never actually played that. Like I played a

785
00:42:50,519 --> 00:42:54,239
show in Lewiston, near where I live, and I was

786
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,360
playing a two hour show and on the way there

787
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,079
I heard a whole lot of shaking going on by

788
00:42:58,119 --> 00:43:01,440
Jerry Lee Lewis. Now I've heard that song thousands of

789
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,000
times probably sure, and I was like, I could play this.

790
00:43:04,079 --> 00:43:06,000
So while I was playing, I just start playing it.

791
00:43:06,079 --> 00:43:08,760
Oh really, it's not it's three chords. Just had to

792
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,159
remember the words and that was a blast, you know,

793
00:43:11,639 --> 00:43:15,920
like I Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard like you know

794
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,719
stuff I do. Yeah, I do a lot of covers.

795
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:20,559
Speaker 1: It sounds like it sounds like though some of the

796
00:43:20,599 --> 00:43:23,639
covers you do might be there might be instances where

797
00:43:23,679 --> 00:43:25,840
people who are there don't necessarily realize their covers right,

798
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,000
because some of these not in not standard issue covers.

799
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I often I try not to take you know,

800
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,480
I'll mention like the songs written by so and so

801
00:43:34,599 --> 00:43:37,800
or afterwards, I'll say it whether they hear it or not.

802
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:42,599
But it's great if I'm playing for a group of like,

803
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,440
you know, working dudes who like country music, and then

804
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,800
I throw an echo and the Bunnyman song they've never heard,

805
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,400
but they like it, or a cure song, but they

806
00:43:51,559 --> 00:43:54,239
like it and they don't even realize it's a like

807
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,199
if they heard the original, they probably like, what right?

808
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,280
I really enjoy that? Or the flip side of it,

809
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:06,559
doing you know a country song that a different audience

810
00:44:06,639 --> 00:44:06,880
might not.

811
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 2: That you could do a sick rap cover if you

812
00:44:10,039 --> 00:44:11,119
found the right rap song.

813
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,760
Speaker 3: I used to, but in this day and age, I

814
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,719
don't do the ones I used to do because a

815
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,920
sense of humor. Sure, and of course there's nothing malicious

816
00:44:21,119 --> 00:44:26,719
in in my my but I'm like, I'm not gonna

817
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:27,440
do those anymore.

818
00:44:28,519 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 1: Understood, Yeah, understood, Yeah, yeah, oh, the time goes quickly.

819
00:44:33,079 --> 00:44:34,639
I want to make sure we I want to make

820
00:44:34,639 --> 00:44:37,079
sure we get one more song in. But I also

821
00:44:37,119 --> 00:44:39,079
want to remind everybody, especially for people who are just

822
00:44:39,159 --> 00:44:42,559

00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,320
Speaker 1: I've always I've always thought it's funny when somebody says, oh, yeah,

how many Matt Connortons do you think there are out there?

876
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,199
There is one other one, but he's my uncle, so

878
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:29,960
very good, and we will. So we'll close out with

879
00:47:30,039 --> 00:47:33,000
this track to Live and Love in the Shadow of Fear.

880
00:47:33,199 --> 00:47:36,039
Speaker 3: Oh okay, it's an ominous title. Yeah, and this is

881
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,639
an episode of the Outer Limits, The New Outer Limits.

882
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:41,800
My girlfriend always says, stop calling it the new Outer

883
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,159
Limits because it's from the nineties, because the original show

884
00:47:44,199 --> 00:47:44,880
was in the sixties.

885
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:46,760
Speaker 1: Oh, I didn't even realize that there's going to reboot.

886
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:50,199
Speaker 3: Yeah there was in the nineties, Okay, but this episode,

887
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,840
particular episode is about someone who realizes there's something wrong

888
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:58,639
with the moon and that the sun probably went nova

889
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:02,360
in that as morning come, everyone's going to be incinerated.

890
00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:06,599
So he decides to spend his last night on Earth

891
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:10,800
coming clean with the Galley has a crush on that

892
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,039
works at the bookstore, and he asks her out on

893
00:48:13,119 --> 00:48:17,320
a date and you know, spends what they believe to

894
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,960
be their last night on Earth together, but she doesn't

895
00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,360
realize the Earth is gonna be gone in the morning.

896
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,000
When she finds out, she's kind of angry, like why

897
00:48:25,039 --> 00:48:27,320
would I want to spend the rest of my life

898
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,400
with you? Like I barely know you. But it's Outer Limits,

899
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:33,920
so it gets more complicated. But anyway, I just love

900
00:48:34,039 --> 00:48:38,079
that idea of the end coming and just knowing when

901
00:48:38,119 --> 00:48:40,079
it's coming and being like, what do you want to do,

902
00:48:40,119 --> 00:48:41,760
And it's like, well, I know what i'd like to do.

903
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,960
I'd like to spend it with the woman I love.

904
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:45,880
So that's what this song.
