Part-Time Rockstar Podcast

This week’s episode features my guest Steve Sipula of the Richmond area hard rock band Chain Letter Curse. I played a show them a couple years ago down in Fredericksburg, VA. They’re working on a new album so I figured I’d get Steve on the show to talk about it. The song that is featured on this episode is off of their first album and it is called “March Of The Mad Lancers.” Which you can find on Spotify and the usual places. They have a show Feb 19th in Richmond at The Lakeside Tavern if you want to check them out. Thanks for listening and supporting local shows. Links below.

By the sound of it he has a few artists he’s working with and and currently looking for more. He reached out to a couple months back to talk about his backstory. I feature a couple songs that he mentioned; the first is an instrumental by the Shawn Calhoune Project called “Serenity” and the other is by Advocaat and the song is called “Dark Patterns.” Both of which you can find wherever you listen to music.

     This week’s episode features Howi Spangler of the Baltimore area band Ballyhoo! They are local legends around here and have been toruing/releasing music for over 25 years now. I wanted to talk to Howi in particular for the 100th episode because his podcast “Tales From the Green Room” inspired me to start this show. He’s also got a new solo album out called “Aberrations” which is a lo-fi instrumental reggae type thing that was just released. You can dowload it for free and/or use it license free for any of your projects. I featured a track called “Ghost Tour” on this episode, as well as Ballyhoo’s song Mixtape at the end. Both of which you can find wherever you listen to music. Ballyhoo’s next show is February 10th at the 930 club in DC with The Movement and Little Stranger. Anyway, big gratitude & thanks to Howi and everyone who’s listened and supported the show so far. Links below.
