20 MAR 2021 · Dead Vinyl is a fantastic rock & roll band from Ft. Worth, TX. They will draw you in with their powerhouse sound on hits such as "Till the Cosmos Fall" and then comfort you with the soft melodic sounds of newer songs such as "Let Love Do". I'd be lying if I told you that Dead Vinyl are not friends of mine. The truth is, I've known these guys a very long time and was ecstatic to finally get to record a podcast episode with them. Dead Vinyl consists of: Hayden Miller on Vocals, Zach Tucker on Bass, Parker Anderson on Drums, and Tyler Vela on Guitar. While we unfortunately did not get to record with Tyler on this episode Hayden, Parker, and Zach take us through the various iterations of their bands before forming Dead Vinyl, there are a lot of stories and even more laughs. I was so fortunate to get to talk to these three guys a few months ago and I hope you enjoy it even half as much as we did. While this episode is not part of a larger Volume we are releasing it under the moniker of "B-Sides" since it is a bonus track just for you. Tune in to find out how the Dead Vinyl crew answers the questions essential to the essence of the podcast: 1. What does music mean to you? 2. How do you quantify success? 3. And what happens after the music fades? Another B-Side episode and the 2 remaining Volume 5 episodes are right around the corner, but for now enjoy this bonus episode, we hope it empowers you to Let Love Do!

6 NOV 2020 · Davy Baysinger, lead singer of Bleach, closes out the Volume today with his career retrospective.

Davy details how Bleach got their start, and how they've continued to stay relevant all these years later. It's the perfect end to this soul-searching Volume.

5 NOV 2020 · Owen Thomas and The Elms were unapologetically authentic in all aspects. From the moment they were making music The Elms were clear in that whether you were booking them for a club or a church they were going to perform the same. Take it or leave it. This was their truth, and it built them a loyal following. Eventually deciding to part ways with the Christian music trappings they set out to forge their own path. What followed has been a legacy unlike most groups who leave the Christian Contemporary landscape. Owen shares his soul with us about his time growing up, time being in The Elms, and how he has made it through some dark times with some clarity.

4 NOV 2020 · Sparrow Records took a chance on Adam LaClave and his group 'Earthsuit' when they signed them to a record deal. There was nothing that sounded like Earthsuit on the label and hardly anything else within all of Christian music which compared. Adam was ahead of his time, trying to make epic alternative music while struggling with his own views on Spirituality as well as his Sexual Orientation. What followed was a fascinating journey into self-discovery. What do you do when you want to make music which feels true to you, but you're constantly reminded you're part of a "Christian" label?

27 OCT 2020 · Bowling for Soup are one of the most iconic groups to come out of the Dallas/Fort Worth, TX area, period. Ok, I may be a bit biased but seriously, their fan base has been named one of the top 10 of all time! That doesn't just happen, but is it any wonder that a band as scrappy as Bowling for Soup would have anything other than loyal fans? I was so fortunate to get to talk to Jaret Reddick about his experiences in music, how Bowling for Soup got started, and how a fortuitous playlist placement from a certain station manager changed the course of their life forever.
