We are back with fresh episodes of the Say It Loud Podcast hosted by Matt Jones. In this episode we are caught up with the band in the time of quarantine. Need some tips on how to pass the time?  Listen to our latest episode. Other topics: checks(the money kind), how things have changed and super powers.  Not to mention a solid new game called... "Is that a disease or the name of a metal band?".  Stay tuned... more episodes are coming!

Aaron of A Sinclair came by to talk about his new album, 'Catpaws', before he takes the stage at The Too Damn Hot Affair on August 31 at Antone's.

We talked about song sequencing, album covers, and how to keep up your excitement as an artist.

We've had his album on repeat, so be sure to check out his grooves before seeing A Sinclair live this weekend!

The Too Damn Hot Affair on August 31 is rapidly approaching. Come join us at Antone's for an awesome night of groovin' and shakin' to benefit the SIMS Foundation.

James Whelan, Marketing Associate for SIMS, came back to the pod to talk about the work SIMS is doing and how they've handled their recent funding challenges. Hint: funding challenges are easier when people support SIMS.

Enjoy listening to how SIMS affects our community and show your support at the Too Damn Hot Affair!

Why would you start a new record and management company in Austin, right? If you're Chace and Storme Levi, it's because you have years of experience and are ready to change the industry from the ground up!

Chace and Storme have mastered the arts of production and networking and shared their vision with us, and we believe!

They're also super fun to talk to and they don't take themselves too seriously even though they're serious about changing the music game. Enjoy!

Are you guys psyched for Skunkfest 2019? We are! That's why we had Skunk Manhattan (A Good Rogering, Runescarred) on the pod to tell us about all the work he's put in to making it a THING!

Fair City Fire will be a part of the all-day festival on June 29 at Come and Take It Live!

We talked to Skunk about how he balances performing and running the show, about the bands he chose, and why he believes in building this community.

Pierson Saxon has been playing music since he was a kid in Dallas, and now he has plans on letting the world hear his solo work.

He's into the old-school R&B/country vibe so we look forward to his new album, which he has been recording in NYC this year. He told us about his process and why he chose New York. 

Pierson is tough to stalk on the internet so find out all you can about him in this episode.

Dan Rohde has made the most of his short time in Austin. He's played for drunks on 6th Street, put together the band Oreja, and had his gear stolen.

The last one wasn't so good, but fortunately Dan has a great community of people in his life who supported him in getting back on his feet. That's what happens when you're a good dude.

We talked to Dan about his music journey and what it's like coming from small-town Illinois. Enjoy!

Natalie Phan, CEO/Founder of On Vinyl Media, has been a regular figure in the Austin music scene for several years. She works really hard at creating a community for musicians and music patrons.

Nathalie talked to us about her licensing practice and the new On Vinyl Local Artist Merch store. Check it out on her website, or buy some merch from her when she hits up shows around town.

She's a hell of a merch woman. We already bought all the things!

Austin-based up-and-coming band Night Cap is working hard on getting that Sprite sponsorship. I think we nailed it in this episode.

These guys are coming into their own and have developed songwriting methods that fulfill their creativity as individuals and as a band.

Hear about how they got together and how their new EP 'Petals' came to be. A little bit of Ron Swanson wisdom never hurts. Enjoy!
