In this episode of the Bad Hotel podcast I (Will Joseph Cook) talk with fellow independent singer songwriter Tom Rosenthal. Alongside a successful solo artist career, Tom has recently deepened his noncomformist approach to the musician life through starting his own label - tinpot records. It's endearing title doesn't come close to explaining just how radical and refreshing it's mission is, a truly artist first partnership. Through unpacking his journey we touch on his multiple encounters with intense internet virality, k-pop, creative mentorship, ghost aliases and the very relatable fear of starting a family in your 20s. Wowee, that's a lot - you better get listening!

Wassup, how you been? Welcome back to Will Joseph Cook's (me lol) label podcast - Bad Hotel. In this episode my brother Charlie and I are joined by the musical artist Dodie.. Our conversation unpacks Dodie's unorthodox rise through the music industry, building the unwavering fanbase and unique creative world in which she exists today. Other themes include the ickiness of autobigraphical songwriting, our tour together, learning how to set boundaries with her internet fame, and a humble fit check. She's a truly fascinating queen and I enjoyed this chat profusely.
