After a much anticipated return, Adam MakBain is BACK BABY! And with a fever and passion like never before. Jeph has wanted this artist on the show since it's inception, but due to all the things listed in the intro to the show, it took this long to happen.
Well Jammerz... Good things, NO... GREAT things come to those who wait and keep working hard for it!

Coming off his recent hit single "Beautiful Boring" hitting the #1 slot on 97.5FM's East Coast Top 30 we sit down and peel back the layers and find out just what makes Adam tick and why he's not such a fan of TicTok (Spoiler Alert: it's an age thing, and you are NOT alone brother)

Check him out at the links below and then love him as much as we do!!

From their website found at https://thesovietinfluence.com/
What do you get when you mix two ounces of Joe Strummer-like political anger topped off with the guitar tones of Johnny Marr? The socialist alt-rock cocktail of your dreams.

The Soviet Influence: a socialist alt-rock trio that appeal to nostalgic listeners while refusing to become stale, combining 60s-era protest themes with the post punk, new wave and modern styles of the everchanging indie rock genre.

Name-checked by Alan Cross, Obscure Sound and Divide and Conquer, the band has three full-length albums under their belt, the latest released in 2021 titled Socialism: An Introduction.

With styles that evoke the likes of Radiohead, Matthew Good and The Talking Heads, The Soviet Influence effortlessly combines progressive political messaging with neo-vintage sounds, labeling the band as a stand-out amongst their competition- and an act to keep your eye on.

KAROL BROWN

Born to a lobster fishing family on the beaches of the Northumberland Strait, Karol Brown provides a melodic, lyric-driven, dive into her mind when she performs her original songs.

Channeling inspiration from artists like Joni Mitchell, Billy Joel, and Taylor Swift. Karol music fills the room like the smell of a warm casserole, with the sounds of her lived experiences creating the crusty topping (everyone's favourite part).

Having released her first full album in 2018 (Made My Own), Karol is now studying engineering at Dalhousie University, however that hasn't slowed down her songwriting. Karol managed to make some time to get into the studio and released her first EP, entitled Dawn, this spring. The collection of songs contains three tracks that are reflective of acceptance, growth, and springtime. Dawn is available for digital purchase and streaming on all platforms.
