On today’s podcast, Ed interviews Kyle Macor from the band Regency Club. Regency Club a retro-pop/rock project of Asbury-Park. The debut LP, “Moth Music” is a loose examination of the things we put our faith in and why. The idea grew from a pandemic-era dream about a Luna Moth and ensuing research on what dreams about moths may mean. There was the subsequent realization that faith has a tendency, no matter how absurd, to lend itself to hope. We mold or own beliefs, even more so in trying times. We all use these things to get by. Dreams, fate, spirits, vices - what’s your moth?

On today's episode, Frank sits down with Ed Dzienkiewicz, a musician from New Jersey, to discuss his journey into music and his latest release. His recording project, For The Meantime, was originally established in 2003 and his new EP "Phases" was released in August of this year.

You can listen to For The Meantime on Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, Tidal and YouTube Music.

Ed's other recording projects, Pause Break, Crusader and Johnnie and the Keys can also be found on all streaming platforms.

You can follow Ed on Instagram @forthemeantime and TikTok @edwardjosephmusic
