AUX Populi

Irrepressibly herself, singer-songwriter Isabella Snow is on the show this week to talk personal philosophies, witchiness, the differences between drunk adults and children (none), upcoming performances, and her soon-to-be-released single, “7-11 Beanie”.

Stay tuned after the episode to catch a snippet of “7-11 Beanie”, as well as a previously released track from Isabella Snow, “Piece of Peace”.

This week, Brady Matteson of Vanity Contest drops by to talk about metal, the inability to guess a person’s taste in music on sight, the difficulty of trying to describe his art, as well as his solo music, which includes his recently released album “Rubine”.

Stay tuned after the episode for a track from Rubine, titled “Mouth of Canyon”.

The God Awful Small Affairs are now Leonora, and Missy and Mark from Leonora are on the show this week to explain why. But more than that, Missy and Mark explain who they are as individuals, the work they’ve done on themselves, and where that work has led. Plus, an AUX Populi first leads to a minor discussion of The Larry Sanders Show.

Stay tuned after the show for a sneak preview snippet of Leonora’s upcoming single “Wrong Car”.

The Most Interesting Person in the World, Robin West, joins Andy on the show this week to talk about award-winning writing, synesthesia, the colors of the days of the week, and some stuff about music. Including some stuff about last year’s EP “Hunger Moon”, and this year’s single “Houses”.

Stay tuned after the episode for two tracks from Robin West, the first being “7 Minute Walk”, and the second, “Houses”.

Molly Compton has a lot on her mind. One of those things being her new record label, Ur Mom Records. New on the scene, Ur Mom Records is already involved with local bands and musicians (as well as artists outside of the Chicagoland area). And where things go from here all comes down to what free time Molly can use to her advantage.

Scott, Armando, and Ben from Almost There But Not Really stop by the show this week to talk about shoegaze music, drawing dogs, and their recently released double track single.

Stay tuned after the episode for that double track single, “Marquette Park/Unwound”.

This week, Jake from the band Family Vacation drops by to tell Andy about dropping journalistic aspirations, discuss mental health, and promote the band’s upcoming EP “Are We Criminals?”

Stay tuned after the episode for an early release of Family Vacation's next single, “Every Song”.

From longtime AUX Audio podcast The Underbelly Hours, hosts Adela & Dan finally make their debut on the show. After Andy interprets one of Adela’s dreams and Dan talks about aliens, the show segues into Adela and Dan talking about changes to their show over the years, and then their own music.

Stay tuned after the episode for two tracks from Dan’s recent EP Still Jaded, with the first being “Hardly Know Ya”, and then “Jaded”.

Never mind if the first thirty minutes of the episode had to be re-recorded, The Dead Licks know what they’re doing. Friends and bandmates drawn together by destiny, there is no doubt that things lined up perfectly for The Dead Licks. Especially considering the positives produced by recent worldwide limitations.

Stay tuned after the episode for a one-minute sneak preview of their track “With a Bottle of Whatever You’re Having”, from their upcoming album (due out in the next few months).

Christian Moreno from Geekd returns to the show, and a lot of his thoughts make sense to Andy. Always in some sort of creative flux state, Christian also promotes his upcoming single, “Trippy Dippy”, available starting February 11th.

Stay tuned after the episode for a track from Christian’s previous EP Jeux, titled “Princess Peach and the Rainbow Dream Machine”.
