Scott's stuff

The absolutely amazing, talented singer songwriter, Nicole Atkins joins us for a really fun, funny, informative and truly off-track conversation. From punking "Weird Al" Yankovic to getting locked in the Beacon Theater bathroom by a ghost, it's a great ride.

This week we're digging back into the archives to revisit a great chat with Chris Shiflett, guitarist for a little band called The Foo Fighters (via No Use For A Name and let's not forget Me First and the Gimme Gimmes!)

Everybody loves Rusty! It's impossible not to. The H2O guitarist has lived a life of adventure and we get a chance to talk about a lot it here - from the early days, building a halfpipe in the band house and possibly inspiring Fugazi?, barely surviving getting shot to touring the world with his heroes, this episode goes off track in all the right ways.

Rancid drummer and The Used founder Branden Steineckert grew up in Utah between a steel plant and a prison — chased by cops for skateboarding  and then later having to call them to his home for domestic abuse. (They were useless.) Now he gets to play drums in one of the world's best punk bands! This is a deep, fun, upbeat conversation with one of music's most resilient dudes.

This week’s guest is Johnny Whitney, frontman of the all-star band Evil Island, whose members come from Johnny’s former band The Blood Brothers, as well as Glassjaw and …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead. Johnny tells us how he got Fugazi’s Guy Picciotto to appear on their new record—and what an incredible experience that was. He also talks about growing up in Seattle just as Nirvana was breaking through, and how that moment shaped his own interest in music.
