Bothering the Band – Détails, épisodes et analyse

When she is not playing guitar on SNL, Maddie Rice is making hauntingly beautiful solo music, as well as boppable pop punk with YO!KOMODO, and on this badass bonus episode she is answering our silly questions which have nothing to do with any of her cool projects. 

Put on your cashmere jumper, rock up with a pair of Yeezies and settle into this cozy episode with Tracyanne Campbell of the Scottish indie pop band Camera Obscura.

We got weird with Rob Bryn of Wild Yaks, discussing everything from Aries animal facts to communes on Staten Island...and the result is a monumental deed!

The uncomfortably honest and soulful LA-based songwriter Rozzi has shared stages and/or collaborated with the likes of Katy Perry, Kendrick Lamar, Pusha T, and Maroon 5, and now she is taking Jello shots on arguably her biggest (best?) platform: Bothering the Band! Get used to Rozzi being everywhere, because it’s already happening.

We are kicking off Season 3 with a very special (and synchronistic) episode! From Beach Boys to Black Flag, we go round and round with Rockaway Records co-founder and music historian Wayne Johnson, talking Los Angeles, concert stories, and 40+ years of selling vinyl.

Blister water and all, we are so stoked to welcome back our pal Randy Randall to the pod! The Grammy-nominated recording artist and multi-instrumentalist from the two-person experimental punk group No Age, who recently released a raucous new album called People Helping People, was a guest on our live show in LA this past May, and now he is back and this episode is special.

Is there anybody out there? Yes! Joining us from his historic loft-turned-studio + music/skate shop, North Carolina-based singer-songwriter Steven Fiore aka Young Mister makes this episode interesting and emotional, especially when talking about Seinfeld which hits us in the funny feels.

Wading through swamp rock and fighting the devil make this BONUS EPISODE with NYC experimental rock outfit The Mortal Prophets (helmed by John Beckmann) a worthy opponent, but then we invited Irish producer/multi-instrumentalist William Declan Lucey along to make it unfairly fun and informative, as well as talk everything from primitive blues to the raucous punk.

This is neither here nor there, but the minute Spotify "randomly suggested" Runnner, we raced to get the enigmatic singer-songwriter on the podcast. From goofy synth sounds to basketball rebounds, this cough-filled episode is the slippery elm you need in your life.

It's scientifically proven that Dessa is amazing. Not only is she a prolific performer, but she is also a writer, a poet, a podcast host, a scientist, as well as an intimidating force of nature by her own devices. This deeply human episode (sponsored by Sharpie) is a literal wish-come-true and we could not be more thrilled, humbled, honored to have asked her our super dumb questions.
