In this Stripped Down edition of The 110 Podcast, I invite Nat of The Cheeky Few, one of the very first bands I featured on the podcast, to share a brand new song! We also chat about the band Love, being in the creative zone, the Pigeon Man from Hey Arnold!, music videos, supporting smaller artists, and a shout out to Black N Gold Studio.

Milk St. is a trio from Maine that caught me by surprise. They’re not what I usually gravitate toward, but their 2023 album V3RMONT won me over. It’s full of nontraditional elements that really grabbed my attention. I’m sharing the track “Jesus Fish Taco” — and if you’ve been listening for a while, the reason will be immediately obvious. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Los Angeles-native Kevin Caldwell is a talented singer-songwriter I had the pleasure of meeting a couple of months ago when we were both featured on Writers Round Fullerton. That night, he performed a few songs from his then-unreleased album, Soulcialism, and I was instantly hooked. I knew then and there that I wanted to showcase one of his tracks as soon as the album dropped. I had a difficult time selecting a track, but finally settled on “Pardon Me.”

I can’t quite remember how I discovered Kenja, but one of her songs made its way into my deep dive playlist. After exploring her catalog, I landed on “DOWN”—not just her latest single, but also her most upbeat track yet. If you haven’t heard her music, now’s the perfect time to give it a listen!

This week, I’m featuring the talented Kendra Celise and her track “Nicotine”. I first discovered her through Greg Artavia and have had the pleasure of seeing her perform three times—I think—once at the Night Owl and twice at Writers Round Fullerton. I love how relateable her songwriting is. Give her music a listen!

This week, I’m featuring the song “Wanna Go Home” by Kaitlyn Taylor. I met her during my last performance at Writers Round in Fullerton. Writers Round is always an interesting experience—most performances are stripped-down, acoustic sets, giving you a chance to hear songs in their rawest, most authentic form. Kaitlyn’s music stood out, and I’m excited to share it with you!

Finger Foods just started randomingly playing one day, and I was not going to pass up the opportunity to feature a band called, Finger Foods. Long-time listeners will know why. I’m featuring the song “Back” off their 2024 EP Marcy, Marcy.

This week, I went down a fascinating rabbit hole exploring an artist who’s involved in several bands, but it was Uff Da! that truly grabbed my attention. Their track “Big Mac’s” isn’t what I typically feature on the podcast, but its use of accordion, banjo, and resonator guitar was too hard-rockin’ to ignore. Tune in as we dive into this unexpected gem!

I’m pretty sure I discovered Lucey through an Instagram ad—maybe a song was playing, or maybe the band name just caught my eye (I have an aunt named Lucy, and I’m a lifelong fan of the Peanuts gang). Whatever it was, the moment I hit play, I was hooked. Lucey blends rock, funk, and that magic touch of new music that feels like a timeless classic—all the things I love. Let’s dive into “Couldn’t Leave It (If I Tried)” and see for yourself what makes this track so irresistible.

I’m not exactly sure how Cilantro first landed on my radar, but if you’ve been tuning in for a while, you know that anything food-related is bound to grab my attention. Their track “Aftershocks” is a brilliantly crafted song that captures the electrifying rush of meeting someone new—the kind of jolt that lingers long after the first encounter. Pulled straight from their 2024 EP, Gut Fauna, this one’s definitely worth a listen. Don’t miss it!
