Jeremy Kizina

 

Greetings Dead Freaks!

In this episode I chat with guitarist, Jeremy Kizina, about his return to guitar and his recent release "Our Ghosts Follow". We dig into his background as a touring musician, his wide-ranging influences, and, of course, the Grateful Dead. I sneak in a couple of new music recommendations at the top of the show and there's a terrific mix of Dead in the back half.

Jeremy Kizina's "Our Ghosts Follow" is our now and available on his Bandcamp page: jeremykizina.bandcamp.com. The album is a quiet and lovely journey and well worth a listen. Be sure you follow his page so you can get word of upcoming releases.

The excellent new podcast "The Female Bob Dylan" is a few promising episodes in and I highly recommend it. Writer, researcher & producer Sophie Abramowitz, artist & musician Sarah Bachman, and folklorist, writer & (terrific record label) SPINSTER co-owner Emily Hilliard explore singer-songwriters who have been shouldered with this title. Please do check out there show wherever you find your favorite podcasts.

I mentioned a few of the many recent releases from The Modern Folk in the intro this episode. "Serf Punk", a singer-songwriter-ish album that I love, was first. Click here to check it out. "Primitive Future III" follows and that one, quite different to "Serf Punk", is largely instrumental. Proceeds from that release are being routed into Hurricane Helene relief and you can find it here. And the last one, which is also the newest one, "Crater Family" from The Modern Folk Trio Band can be picked up on vinyl here.

My own album, "As We Know It" came out on September 17 on CD and digital DL via my bandcamp page JMHart.Bandcamp.com as well as on the various streaming services. I do hope you'll check it out, take it in, and enjoy it.

Catching Up

 

Greetings Dead Freaks!

I've been catching up on so much listening these days that I thought I'd share with you a few choice releases that I've been enjoying from The Jauntee, Dave Heumann, and The Modern Folk Trio Band. Afterwards I pay tribute to the late Robbie Robertson. This all adds up to a set of interesting tunes including a closing medley of Phil & Friends, Jerry Garcia Band, & (of course) Grateful Dead.

It was difficult to narrow things down but, as usual, leaving something unmentioned doesn't mean I haven't loved it. Instead, we're focusing on a few artists that I've spoken to on the show who've released some great new music.

The Jauntee's brand new album "Anything" is available on streaming services and directly via their website TheJauntee.com. 

Dave Heumann's latest, "Themes From Blue Honey" is available via his bandcamp page. 

The latest Modern Folk Trio Band release, "Always Be Recording ii" is available as a digital download as well as a bonafide compact disc via the label's Bandcamp page, bud tapes.bandcamp.com.

Please consider supporting these wonderful artists by purchasing their music.

The Modern Folk

Greetings Dead Freaks.

We've got a great chat with Josh Moss of The Modern Folk. Josh's music ranges from gentle folk to, well, out there and covers a lot of points in between. We talk about his recent and upcoming releases and spin a huge mix of Grateful Dead.

I also take a few minutes to remember the late Rick Harris. Known for his work on the brilliant Thoughts On The Dead blog, Rick passed recently and he will be sorely missed. If you're not familiar with his work, please head over to https://www.thoughtsonthedead.com and check it out. Go Easy, Rick.

The Modern Folk has a vast catalog. Among the most recent is "Primitive Future/Lyran group" from Eiderdown Records. You can also find his "American Mountain" tape (only a couple left!) and so much more at themodernfolk.bandcamp.com.
