In this episode of The Audio Files, Brad Zerbo and Jaytriot take a deep dive into the infamous “27 Club,” exploring the eerie pattern of legendary musicians who died at the age of 27. The discussion traces the phenomenon from its mythic roots with Delta blues icon Robert Johnson through the devastating cluster of late 60s and early 70s losses, including Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Jim Morrison.

The conversation examines the suspicious circumstances surrounding several of these deaths, the role of drugs, fame, and psychological pressure, and the darker conspiracy theories tied to Laurel Canyon, military intelligence connections, and cultural manipulation. The episode then moves into the modern revival of the 27 Club with Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse, questioning official narratives and highlighting inconsistencies that continue to fuel debate.

Blending music history, cultural analysis, and conspiratorial inquiry, this episode asks whether the 27 Club is coincidence, curse, or something far more deliberate.
