I had  the immense pleasure of delving into the captivating world of a truly extraordinary musician. Her name is synonymous with emotion, vulnerability, and a musical authenticity that cuts straight to the core. Sarah Mary Chadwick career spans over multiple decades, carving out a niche for herself as a singer-songwriter who fearlessly explores the depths of human experience through her music. Our conversation was truly amazing, as Chadwick's work is an emotional rollercoaster that takes you through the highs and lows of life, love, and everything in between. Her ability to weave poignant lyrics with haunting melodies is nothing short of spellbinding, leaving listeners in awe of the raw honesty she brings to each and every composition. Enjoy. 🎙️

For nearly a decade, Jenni Cochran and Aaron Craker have been writing songs together. Through various genres and influences, their working relationship has resulted in a collection of great music. The twisting and turning sands of time have seen them change monikers, from Frederick the Younger to Genevva (named after Cochran’s grandmother).

One man Canadian band Jaguar Sun is the brainchild of multi instrumentalist Chris Minielly.  His approach to crafting his music is remarkable,  a truly bedroom dream pop kinda guy doing everything from writing, recording, mixing, promoting and playing all his music himself in his home studio. We had a wonderful conversation about how he builds his songs, how his music went viral and what is coming down the line for Jaguar Sun. 🌞 Enjoy 🎙️

Kenny Boothby, Canadian artist and the architect behind DYI indie pop band Little Kid joined me from his Toronto apartment to discuss his faith, his music and how he used the two in his freeing creative process. Raised a Christian in rural Ontario, Kenny explained that religion was just something that you did in small communities, but as Kenny grew up and started writing music his beliefs started to flush out many questions he had about faith, religion and being a Christian. The themes throughout Little Kid’s catalogue is spattered with religious conflict, which ultimately leads to self discovery and long sought after freedom. A great conversation. Enjoy 🎙️

Paul Murphy is a prolific Canadian musician. Fronting indie rock’s  Wintersleep is only half of Paul’s greatness, the other half is embedded in his outstanding “side-project” Postdata. Joining me from his home/studio in Halifax Nova Scotia we had a profound conversation about Paul’s musical process, his beginnings as an artist in eastern Canada, and how he approaches writing songs for two different styled bands.  On Postdata's latest record Run Wild we get Paul’s popper side surfacing, and good for us!

Neptune’s Core is an all female Chicago band compromised of two sets of sisters, Sofie and Hannah Richter and Jackie and Kaitlin Cywinski. Three members joined me for a wonderful chat about their beginnings, their influences, their process and the tough themes they dabble in as a group of young women. Hot off their latest release, Called Upon, they dive head first into a classic slow/fast indie rock playbook with deeply  emotional lyrics, that empower the listener to reflection and release the many turmoils we are faced with daily. Neptune’s Core are a young up and coming band that needs to be on your radar, three records in and they are only becoming stronger songwriters. Check out their single Inside at the end of the cast. Enjoy 🎙️

It’s been awhile since Eric Lindley aka Careful has released a record, but with a new baby, the pandemic all whirling, the wait has been well worth it. Eric is a musical scientist/psychologist who deconstructs his songs to see why humans react to certain chord structures, certain crescendos, tapping into the depths of a composition’s truth. This reflective pulling apart and reassembly of songs makes Careful’s songs so powerful, drenched in restrain and emotion. It’s probably best he only puts out a record every handful of years because they are so profound. On Careful’s latest LP Promise/Practice, it’s a journey of the purest indie pop you'll hear in a long time. Our featured track is the sublime "White light” which you’ll hear at the end of the cast. Enjoy 🎙️
