Dad Rock

Dad Rock is on the road, headed to South By Southwest in a vintage Airstream!

On Day Three, we spent a full day in Nashville, hitting up seven spots! We got a tour of Jack White's Third Man Records, spent time with indie band Daddy Issues (how perfect is that?) and caught up with Dave Paulson of The Tennessean for a tour of some truly geeky music spots.

Join us on the journey.

Dad Rock is on the road. While in Asheville, N.C., we stopped off at Asheville FM, an independent community radio station. Tom Peters invited Dad Rock hosts Patrick Foster and Jim Lenahan to appear on his show, "The Countdown." They discussed musical guilty pleasures, the Asheville music scene and other topics.

It's a crossover episode of multi-state proportions.

Dad Rock on the road! We spend time with Halli Anderson and Alex McWalters of Asheville, N.C.'s River Whyless. Who better to give us a sense of Asheville's music scene than a modern folk rock band with mountain music influence? And they'll be playing at South By Southwest. We'll be there too!

First stop along the way is Asheville, N.C., where our tour guide, Emily Patrick of the Asheville Citizen-Times, took us to visit a string instrument craftsman, a quirky independent radio station and an eclectic live music club. Learn about what makes this small community so dynamic.

"Out of Time," R.E.M.'s big breakthrough album came out 25 years ago this month. Seems like a good time to look back at the band's second period, when Berry, Buck, Mills, Stipe moved up to a major label.

This is a follow-up to Dad Rock Ep. 7, which focused on R.E.M.'s I.R.S. years. We even brought back guest fan Justin Gay to continue the conversation started so long ago.

Plus, this episode features the debut of the new Dad Rock theme song, performed by Night Streets (nightstreets.bandcamp.com).

It's Dad Rock's first anniversary, but Jim and Patrick call in sick. This forces Beryl Love and Producer Carol to take over the show, playing clips of their favorite moments from the past 12 months of commentary and interviews (and general goofiness).
