Jenee and Danielle pull musician and poetic outlaw John Elliott out of bed to talk fearlessness, songwriting and mental health. 

John Elliott's music has been called "tear at your heartstrings, folksy" and "a surreal and trippy cool kind of pop thing." It has also been referred to as "Post-Seinfeld, Post 9/11 Eyebrow Rock." Regarding Elliott's lyrics, Chuck Schiele of The San Diego Troubadour says, "They get in, make their statement, kick you in the teeth, and get out before they start talking too much…And this lends to the urge of rolling any track to its beginning for another spin.

"Songs for Ryan Montbleau typically need to simmer. In his 10-year career this gifted singer and his limber

band have built their catalog the old-fashioned way, by introducing new songs to their live set, then bending and shaping them over dozens of performances before committing a definitive version to the hard drive. For that and many other reasons, Montbleau's latest album, For Higher, is quite literally a departure.

Well-established out of his home base in the Northeast, the singer threw himself into New Orleans, where

everything is slow-cooked, for a few fast-moving days — and whipped up an instant delicacy."
