I stumbled upon The Lion Heart thanks to Jam in the Van. While some might argue they don't perfectly fit the show's criteria, their music is simply too incredible not to share. And, their live performance of "Send That Ca$h" fits the play count requirement. So, let's embrace the loophole and bask in all their Spaghetti Western, desert rock goodness.
Check out their enigmatic, van-rockin' performance here.

We're getting a little angstier than usual this week, courtesy of Utah-based drunk in june and their track "i itch to send mail". The band's name, featuring a month, and their song title, catering to my love of the USPS, immediately caught my attention. Be sure to check out the rest of their catalogue.

Instagram ads usually annoy me, but this one was a gift from the algorithm gods. "Use Me" by soft spot has that dark, heavy energy Tool/A Perfect Circle perfected. Dive in.

Normally, I’m a lone wolf when it comes to music picks for the podcast. But every once in a while, I throw caution to the wind and call in a favor. Enter Madima, the music guru, and the musical bomb she dropped on me: "Paradise" by YUHGIRLFRAN. This track is a full-on sonic assault of powerhouse vocals and gut-wrenching emotion. Press play, let the feels wash over you, then give her a follow.

I stumbled upon No Refunds through Hidden Tree Studios. The band's Montebello roots instantly piqued my interest. And that dog on the "Above the Water" single? Sold!

I know that you know that I know that I picked this song because both the band name and the song title are food-related. You can always count on me to bring a food-related song—that I love. "Orange Dreamsicle" is a sweet summer jam from Berries & Toast's 2023 album, Hunny. It's just one slice of their musical pie. Dig in!

Calling all Lilith Fair fans! This week, I'm spotlighting "Leave You Behind" by Mary Beth Abella, a singer-songwriter with beautiful vocals and lyrics that pack a punch.

Dive into her impressive three-album discography and discover a treasure trove of raw emotion.

I came across Feral Suits way back when I was starting the podcast thanks to the Spotify algorithm. I checked out their 2021 album, Drown the Garden, and connected with "My First Car" immediately. The band is no longer active, but be sure to check out their new projects linked below.

I found The Corpos through Eddie Navega, he was posting about shows and the band name sounded interesting, so you know I had to check them out. I'm featuring "Brand New Car" off their newly released three-song EP, First Quarter Projections.

It's episode 100! I collaborated with Mike of Black N Gold Studio in Whittier, CA, who graciously hosted my two favorite local bands, No Application Fee and Rome Apart, to put together this special edition of the podcast. Both bands recorded stripped-down acoustic versions of one of their songs, then came together to listen to the final product and discuss the process. I had a lot of fun creating this episode, hope you enjoy it. Thanks again to everyone who helped make this possible.

Jason Ferguson is an old friend from the heyday of my first podcast, The Listening Party. He's one of the people who inspired me to start this podcast and support smaller, local artists. I'm featuring the track "One Night Stand" featuring Beau Tyler off his 2013 EP, The Unicorn EPisode. Enjoy.

Izzy Jones is a singer-songwriter and lover of love songs hailing from the Evergreen State. I found them thanks to Greg's hard work at Writers Round Fullerton. I'm featuring the track "dessert never hurt anybody" off their 2022 album Codependent. It's a fantastic album, be sure to give the whole thing a listen.

This week I'm featuring "God's a Skeeball Fanatic" off Sorta Kinda's 2023 album Dogooder. It's a great album to drive to, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Fun fact, the title comes from a late 90's classic film, giving it that extra layer of geekyness I love. Give them a listen.

I met James of The Automatic Knives when we were both featured on Writers Round Fullerton. I love his grungey, gritty voice. The song I'm featuring, "Long Way Down", is a soulful, rock n' roll earworm. It's also an interesting piece of L.A. history.

I came across Motelimbo thanks to Orange Peel, a publication for concertgoers, playlist connoisseurs, and music lovers. Something was intriguing about them right off the bat, they reminded me of so many great bands from my younger days. I went with "Tiki Bar Angel" for its awesome harmonica. Check them out!

I try to check out every artist Greg features on Writers Round - Fullerton, that's how I came across Migstape. His music is mellow, with very relatable lyrics, sprinkled with beautifully diverse instrumentation. It reminded me of one of my favorites, Peter Su, featured in episode nine. I went with "Pizza Love" for this episode, be sure to check out all his tunes.

Mike over at Black N Gold Studio mentioned Hidden Tree used the space to shoot some live performances, I checked out their YouTube channel and came across Mark & the Gallery's. I went with "Cheese" because listeners know I love food-related songs. Give them a listen.
