Couch Riffs

This episode's guest is Bart Rose of Fort Worth Sound in Dallas/Ft Worth TX. I've know Bart since grade school but his early impression on my musical journey began in high school when he showed me how to play an Outfield song while he sang it. That was a lightning bolt moment for me. He was always a talented player and singer and began recording on a 4-track early on, focusing on making things sound just right. I couldn't have been more impressed and I'm more impressed than ever today, all these years later, as he owns and operates a professional recording studio and produces albums for lucky artists that walk through his door.

This episode of the Couch Riffs Podcast we have Portland's finest, Hutch Harris of now defunct band, The Thermals. I've probably spent more hours listening to The Thermals than any other Portland band. Possibly any other NW band, to be honest. Anyway, you get the idea. I loved The Thermals and was sad to hear that they broke up last year. Hutch released a solo album earlier this year and is currently working on some more new music which makes me very happy!

This episode of Couch Riffs our guest is Steven McSwain of McSwain Guitars. Absolutely ridiculous, intricate industrial/art guitars that do not disappoint!

Pretty much anything you can imagine, this man can find a way to make it a reality. Go check out his guitars after you listen to this episode!

This episode's guest is the one I've known the longest of any (so far), Wolfe Macleod of Wolfetone Pickups in Seattle WA. Wolfe and I grew up in the same small town and both left early in life, even as beautiful of a place that Granite Falls is. Wolfetone Pickups are hand built by Wolfe in his shop in North Seattle where he also houses his collection of swords, fantasy art, and Porsches. He's quite the fancy lad! Be sure to check out Wolfetone's Black Friday sale this year, spanning from Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday.
