Podcast Episode 07 - Kameron Klamtown

In this episode, recorded at Space N Faders, we chat with Kameron, our banjo player, covering two unique tracks on the upcoming Folk Hogan album.

Topics Covered:

  1. "Blood From a Stone"
  • This song carries a classic Folk Hogan Irish vibe.
  • Kameron discusses the original riff, sourced from Moses’s phone recording.
  • Notably, it's one of the few songs with a strong chorus on the new album.
  • Big stretches on the banjo make this one challenging but rewarding to play.
  • We listen to the bridge section of "Blood From a Stone."
  • Fun fact: Moses doesn’t get mad often, but this song’s bridge section brings out the intensity!
  • "All Good Things Die in San Diego"
    • This song is the second-to-last track on the album.
  • We share a cell phone recording from the studio where we first learned the song.
  • A living wake for Larry the Legend is the inspiration, and you can watch the tribute concert here:

  • The drums in this song are powerful, setting an incredible foundation.
  • Moses shares his thoughts on cutting lyrics about his grandma, shaping the song’s final form.
  • Key lyrics include “With a full moon rising” and “I don’t want to live forever, without you.”
  • Kameron explains how we crafted the backup vocals and intense ending.
  • Ghostly banjo sounds give the song an ethereal opening, adding a unique texture.
