On this episode I was joined by Jack Kinder of Hot Apple Band. I was mesmerized by their debut record So Long, Noodle House that was released at the end of 2023. Jack spoke about the bands beginnings, debut record, and the new music coming in 2025! We also had a far out time just discussing how feeling stuck in the creative process can actually lead to something new and how to transmute it in his case even into a new memorable track for the debut record.

On this episode I catch up with visionary artist Juliana Garces. We reconnect and explore her latest artworks where she has created a new style she is calling Jewelification. It was inspired by the Diamond Realms in Buddhism she's experienced. She tells the story that started her on this new journey it all happened one day deep in meditation sitting on her bed with a shared synchronicity. As usual with us we spoke openly about what being on a spiritual journey even means to us and how we always circle back to sharing a cosmic giggle about it all!

On this episode I spoke with comic artist and writer Nate McDonough also known as grixlycola on instagram where he gives us a glimpse into his life through his artwork. We spoke about his latest book "Longboxes" Much like the comic our conversation ranged from laugh out loud giggles, shit talking, and vulnerable moments of honesty.

Welcome to your next dose of Awareness with Amandolin on this episode I spoke with Frankie Sunswept + Kimberly Haven about "Nostalgia" their upcoming record you can preorder a c copy of now!

The record is exactly the kinda thing that keeps me fiery for the music scene. It combines the band’s love of Ethio-jazz, Krautrock, 60s psychedelia, garage rock, African rock, South American folk music, prog, and even proto-metal into a distinctive time capsule dealing with themes of collective memory, climate change, mythology, science fiction, and loving kindness. Each song flows seamlessly into the next creating an infinite loop that echoes the album’s theme of the circular nature of time.

Watch the triple music video!

Feels like a record made for me and likely you too listeners!

On this transmission of the show we take a look into Darra the creative mind behind Dear Darling Design Studio. A beautiful award winning artist from Baltimore with an aesthetic that's both vintage and modern. Darra  places important messages that connect others and are often shared over and over on social media. In the episode she shares about what it was like to grow up with parents who were addicts during the beginning of the opioid crisis and died while she was young and how she found herself becoming a functional addict herself to a now sober mother, artist, and business owner. She has such an inspiring story and has put a spotlight on harder topics many times through her art and finds her truth connects her with her audience and them with one another. I love that because it reminds humans they are most certainly not alone in their experience. So enjoy getting to know Darra.

On this episode I catch up with Winter McQuinn about his second solo record "Move to the Trees" and it's upcoming release on Third Eye Stimuli. We spoke about the innately human ability to create music and inspire one another.  Planting tomatoes when things look bleak and what it was like to record and album during a weekend of pure bliss and Beatles DVD's. His new record is a series of anthems for the future, settled in a post psych folk and 70s soft rock influence. Enjoy sweet babies!
