I Produced Every Band Ever

Since the Eras Tour is in theaters and Taylor's Version of 1989 just dropped, we also choose to revisit Taylor Swift's triumphs through a rerun of The Eras Tour with Joanna Rakoff.

Full circle from Season 1 and the Midnights album, Joanna shares her pre-game Eras Tour outfit strategy and Tamara explains the historical background and pluses of moss-covered pianos. They ponder stadium ghosts, wearing a Laura Ashley dress with smeared breakup makeup, and recognize that Dads are swifties, too.

Since time is only an illusion, I Produced Every Band Ever is presenting a rerun of "Harrison Cannon" with the one and only Harrison Cannon.

From Beatles time traveling to youthful bass-slapping, Tamara Federici and Harrison Cannon reminisce about what was happenin'. They discuss music's power to disrupt the space time continuum, screaming (with horns), and collegiate atmospheres. Harrison performs in several bands and Tamara only rhymes sometimes.

Harrison Cannon is a NY-based bassist/musician. He's been in a number of bands including Geezer Lake, M Shanghai String Band, and BARNABY! Find more information about BARNABY! at https://barnaby.band/.

Join Mitchell McGirt, Brian Huskey, Chris Longworth, and host Tamara Federici as they take a look back at Bicycle Face.

Bicycle Face was a North Carolina band hailing from Greensboro and a staple of the fertile music scene from 1988-1994, performing w Polvo, Archers of Loaf, Zen Frisbee, Geezer Lake and countless other bands. Mitchell McGirt (guitar, vocals), Brian Huskey (bass, vocals) and Chris Longworth (drums) had a unique sound for the scene with nods to Camper Van Beethoven, Meat Puppets, Buck Owens and classic garage rock. An initial four song 7 inch record and their full length album, “Trust and Obey” were released on the now defunct Moist Records and were followed up by the “Christafari” 7 inch on Squealer Records and “The Red Hat Man” on Greensboro’s D-Tox Records. Their favorite audience review was “These guys suck, but they are trip between songs."

Once again, join writer and performer Tom Chalmers and producer of every band ever Tamara Federici as they discuss Van Halen.

Tom Chalmers is a writer, performer, professor, and professed music show rat (as in he goes to a lot of them). A graduate of Columbia University, Tom spent his summers in Chicago taking classes at Second City and Improv Olympic (with the legendary Del Close). After college, Tom stayed in New York to study with Groundlings East/Gotham City Improv where he became a member of the performing company, an instructor, and the Artistic Director. He eventually left for LA where he wrote for SHOWTIME television and appeared in a handful of national commercials and feature films. Tom has since settled in Asheville, NC, where he is an Adjunct Professor at Warren Wilson College and runs his own academy, The Asheville School of Improv. He is part of the popular improv troupe, Reasonably Priced Babies, the host and producer of the long-running storytelling series, Listen to This, and co-host of the weekly sports talk radio show, Run That Back, on AshevilleFM. Tom also somehow finds time to contribute articles and reviews to the music website, Asheville Stages.
