1.2: Casey Crawford of Virginity

Episode 2

Thursday, July 10, 2025 • Duration 34:27

Florida's Virginity has been a Fest staple since 2019. Their energetic live show and heart-on-sleeve lyrics are always a hit. Their new EP "Fidelity Castro" is out now and they MIGHT have some new stuff in the mix (hints in this episode).

Joining the pod today is singer and guitarist, Casey Crawford. Casey got his start at Fest doing stand-up comedy before getting back into music. We talk about the therapy Fest provides and how music and live music in particular help provide the community we all value so much.

1.3: Christine Atturio and Mike Assatly of Little Low and Unseemlier

Episode 3

Friday, July 11, 2025 • Duration 56:42

This is, as you'll hear, a big show for me. Christine Atturio (Little Low) and Mike Assatly (Unseemlier and Little Low) drop by to do the pod and talk about their new albums, both out on Sell The Heart Records.

Christine and Mike are MA scene veterans and have both played Fest in previous bands. However, they talk here about Little Low and Unseemlier, who just put out my two favorite albums of 2025. They talk about how music helps them put their introspective natures to work, growing up in MA, drinking too much, and seeing Bane way back when.

Mike and I also share a brain in how we prepare for things. Hang on until the end when he hauls out his homemade doc of Fest bands he plans on seeing each day.

Swing by the Sell The Heart Records shop and just order both of these records, you will not be disappointed. You can also find their Bandcamp sites here and here.

Sunday, July 13, 2025 • Duration 34:07

Joing the pod today is Anna Troxell from the Austin, TX hardcore band, Mugger. Mugger has an EP and an LP out on Quiet Panic and is currently working on new music.
