Last week I sat down with Shark Dad at Steve's Hot Dogs Tower Grove after their album listening party for A Bigger Boat at Tick Tock Tavern. Jason, Shawn, Paul and Erik tell you all about the new album, recording it in their new recording studio, and some of the inspiration behind the songs. 

Opening the show you'll hear "OK Soda", and closing out the show stick around to hear "I Wrote A Letter to Juliana Hatfield in 1996 and Have Yet to Receive a Letter Back" and "Hold All My Calls" all from the A Bigger Boat album. Pick up the album on ITunes, Amazon or wearesharkdad.bandcamp.com

See Shark Dad live August 29 at the Firebird with B&E.

The other day I had the opportunity to sit and chat with Philip & Aaron, better known together as The Brothers Reed. They stopped at Hwy40 Brews in Wentzville while in town for Aaron's wedding (Congrats man!). We were able to discuss their new album SICK AS FOLK, songwriting, and even play a few new tunes live acoustic. Hear The Brothers Reed play ANNA, MONSTER IN MY HEAD, & Mr.DOUGH on the show. 

You can also hear TENNESSEE from their SICK AS FOLK album now available on ITunes, CdBaby, and TheBrothersReed.com.

*Warning* This episode was recorded live while other bands were rehearsing down the hall, so there is some bass coming through that effected the mic at parts. I apologize.

Episode 102 with the guys of Brookroyal. I was able to catch up with Jack, Bon, Dave and Jason of Brookroyal at their rehersal the other night to discuss their upcoming appearance at the 6th Annual Ink Spot Block Party in Troy, Mo.
