Darryl Talks To Bands

Trevor Hurst on all things Econoline Crush, his work in the health care industry and just a great chat about where we're at in 2020.

In this episode VooDoo Rockfest organizer Joe Matthews explains how this years festival will work, doing it responsibly and taking on a ton of work in order to make it happen. Strictly for the love of live music. The best reason of all

For the 25th episode, we take a look back at the music and exclusive performances from the series. Each song is given some context to the episode that it came from.

An in studio interview with Ottawa's Quiet Crimes at Reverence Audio. That's lead singer Mike Raymond's house. At the end, the play a live off the floor take of the song Alice from their latest EP Modern Lovers.

The guys have also been kind enough to have this episode debut a brand new song called "Head". If you like hard rock, with flavours of desert and grunge, you need to know Quiet Crimes

Darryl and Taylor talk about their new single "Death By Rock and Roll", some of the amazing special guests on the record and a lot about Chris Cornell

This week Darryl talks to Jeremy Taggart & Jonathan Torrens about their new comedy record BAHDS. It's out now on Dine Alone, AND we play three songs that are discussed in the podcast.

You can watch this episode on the Darryl Talks To Bands Instagram account, but you'll only get the music (with the podcast) here .

This week it's another strong case for the quality of the Ottawa Rock scene. Taming Sari are a 5 piece pure Rock n Roll band that are best consumed in a live setting, which all seems like such a distant memory at this point.

With some new material on the way, it's the perfect time to catch up with the band and at the end of the interview they'll play a live version of their biggest song "Down With The Devil"

RTR front man Andy C talks to Darryl this week from his home in Welland, Ontario. Andy tells the story of how approaching the Niagara Ice Dogs lead to much bigger arenas for their music to get played in.

He also shares how Covid-19 touched his personal life, and it is a story that I’m certain you haven’t at all during the pandemic. But you should have, I feel like this story is news worthy.

There is also a good smattering of tunes from their self-titled debut throughout

Monster Truck front man Jon Harvey talks about the state of the world in 2020 (this interview was done shortly following the murder of George Floyd), his new solo project J.Harvey & The Inner Demons, we'll listen to the first 3 songs, and we get some insight in to the next Monster Truck record.

One Bad Son drummer (and lawyer) Kurt Dahl of One Bad Son talks with Darryl about, life, Sask Music and what the band is up to. Kurt is an activist, a fighter for good causes. This interview was done before the outbreak of riots in the United States. That is something that couldn't be ignored this week and that gets addressed in the opening of this episode
