  • Let's Get Weird, Sexy Disco Country Crooners, and GBBN (Good Band, Bad Name)
    2026/07/05
    This week's Dive Bar Music Club is a rabbit hole of garage rock side projects, forgotten lo-fi legends, Americana royalty, and gloriously oddball icons. The Regulars discuss everything from why some bands desperately need a new name to whether fans should let artists evolve, while swapping stories about tiny clubs, legendary live shows, and the strange magic of musicians who refuse to color inside the lines. Along the way, Swamp Dogg steals the conversation by being exactly as weird and wonderful as advertised, Tyler Childers sparks a thoughtful debate about artistic growth and rabid fanbases, and everyone accidentally proves that music nerds can spend ten minutes discussing an electronic duo's cassette track listing without a trace of irony, and somehow make it completely compelling.Pin Our Tastemaker PlaylistsApple MusicTidalMusicians Featured in this EpisodeKacey MusgravesAndrew SaDavid Rawlings/David Rawlings Machine/Dave RawlingsGillian WelchJack LoganOld 97s/Murray Hammond/Rhett MillerStyrofoam WinosWeird NightmareSwamp DoggTyler Childers/The Food StampsFestivalsAmericanaFestAtlanta Film FestivalMusicians & Bands & ReferencesBarry and Levon (The State sketch characters)Chris StapletonCindy LauperDaniel JohnstonDerek TrucksDylan LeBlancFlorrieGabe LeeGary U.S. BondsIron & WineJason Isbell/Jason Isbell and the 400 UnitJenny LewisJesse Welles (Tyler Childers band member)John PrineJon Spencer/Blues ExplosionJohnny Blue SkiesJohnny PaycheckKing MargoKraftwerkLavender CountryLindsey BuckinghamMetzMiranda LambertMJ LendermanNew OrderNeko CasePatrick HaggertyPeter BuckRatboysR.E.M.Rick RubinRilo KileyRyan DavisScott BaxendaleSlobberboneStarfuckerSturgill SimpsonSusan Tedeschi/Tedeschi Trucks BandThe PolliesThe ReplacementsVic ChesnuttW8ing4UFOsWednesdayYaz/Yazoo/Alison MoyetRecord LabelsCapricorn RecordsMedium Cool RecordsNew West RecordsSub Pop RecordsTwin/Tone RecordsVenuesBlue Plate Special (WDVX performance series)Boyd's Jig & ReelCoca-Cola Amphitheater (Birmingham)Fantasyland Records (Atlanta)Pinhook (Durham)Red Rocks AmphitheatreThe Basement (Nashville)WDVX RadioThe RegularsNelson GullettCharles HaleAmanda MilesSloane SpencerChapters00:17 - Introducing the Guests02:36 - Exploring New Sounds: Weird Nightmare and Beyond07:59 - The Rise of Jack Logan18:44 - Traveling and Music Experiences21:50 - New Discoveries in Music and Memory28:42 - The Evolution of Tyler's Sound38:10 - Exploring New Sounds in Country Music44:21 - Reflections on Swamp Dog's Legacy46:36 - Exploring New and Established Artists52:51 - The Transition to New Music DiscussionsRecommended If You LikeDive Bar Music Club, music podcast, indie rock podcast, Americana podcast, alt-country podcast, roots music, new music discovery, music recommendations, playlist podcast, Tyler Childers, Kacey Musgraves, Gillian Welch, David Rawlings, Swamp Dogg, Old 97's, Jack Logan, Weird Nightmare, Styrofoam Winos, Andrew Sa, John Spencer, John Spencer Blues Explosion, Jenny Lewis, Rilo Kiley, Jason Isbell, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, REM, Peter Buck, Peter Jesperson, The Replacements, Vic Chesnutt, Daniel Johnston, Iron & Wine, MJ Lenderman, Wednesday, Ratboys, Slobberbone, Sturgill Simpson, Johnny Blue Skies, Chris Stapleton, Lindsey Buckingham, Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Patrick Haggerty, Lavender Country, Americana music, indie music, garage rock, power pop, lo-fi music, Southern rock, country music, record collecting, vinyl records, record stores, live music, concert reviews, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, AmericanaFest, WDVX, Sub Pop Records, New West Records, Twin/Tone Records, Medium Cool Records, dive bar music club, 90s alt rock, emerging songwriters, indie music podcast, music playlists, lo-fi music, garage rock, power pop, Weird Nightmare band, Jack Logan music, Americana music, country music, alternative country, record store culture, music discovery, passionate music discussions, underground music, music collaborations, concert experiences, music recommendations

  • Happy Pride 2026! Music Gets Us Through Grief and Exciting Breaking News
    2026/06/26
    Happy Pride! Sloane Spencer catches up with music journalist and Rainbow Rodeo founder Rachel Cholst during a period of both profound loss and exciting professional growth. Rachel reflects on the unexpected death of a longtime friend, sharing how music, ritual, and community have helped her navigate grief, while also discussing major milestones including Rainbow Rodeo’s subscriber drive, plans to revive its podcast, and the news that SiriusXM’s Country Pride channel will become a permanent offering, with Rachel continuing as one of its voices. Along the way, the conversation explores the role of music in memory and healing, highlights emerging and established artists from the queer, indie, and Americana worlds, and touches on Rachel’s ongoing creative projects, including a comic book series (Kickstarter!). The result is a thoughtful, heartfelt discussion about loss, resilience, artistic community, and the ways music helps us make sense of life’s highs and lows.Pin Our Tastemaker PlaylistsApple MusicTidalMusicians Featured This EpisodeAndrew SaMicah Schnabel and Vanessa Jean SpeckmanNorth IngallsVNV NationMusicians Mentioned in Our ConversationAaron Lee TasjanCall Me RitaFrank TurnerGorillazHC McEntireJeff RosenstockJason MolinaJimmy Eat WorldJohnson and Magnolia Electric CompanyKMFDMKim RicheyLake Street DiveLavender CountryMount MoriahPaisley FieldsPatrick HaggertyProcol HarumRammsteinRatboysTwo Cow GarageThe RegularsRachel CholstSloane SpencerChapters00:04 - Dealing with Loss03:43 - New Beginnings: The Rainbow Rodeo Fundraiser15:00 - Navigating the Landscape of Country Music and Sirius XM16:00 - The Influence of Holographic Performances26:24 - Navigating Grief and Music32:03 - Transition to New Music Discussions35:53 - The Impact of Social Media on Music Connections44:06 - Exploring Creative PassionsRecommended If You Likepodcast episode, music and grief, loss of a friend, songs about death, emotional music, coping with loss, music therapy, LGBTQ+ music, Rainbow Rodeo, indie music, country music, music recommendations, alt rock, mental health and music, professional growth in music, overcoming grief, personal stories in music, music playlists, artists to listen to, music community, Dive Bar Music Club podcast, Rachel Cholst, Rainbow Rodeo, queer country music, LGBTQ country artists, Country Pride SiriusXM, SiriusXM Country Pride, Pride Month music, independent music journalism, music podcast, Americana music, indie rock music, alternative country, queer musicians, Rainbow Rodeo magazine, music discovery, emerging artists, Andrew Sa, North Ingalls, Micah Schnabel, Vanessa Jean Speckman, Two Cow Garage, Lavender Country, Patrick Haggerty, Paisley Fields, Jeff Rosenstock, VNV Nation, Ratboys, Jason Molina, Johnson and Electric Company, grief and music, music and healing, friendship and loss, funeral songs, music memories, country music culture, independent artists, music reviews, no Depression magazine, queer country community, music journalism interview, underground music scene, DIY music culture, singer-songwriter podcast, Americana podcast, LGBTQ music media, indie music recommendations, Pride Month podcast, music fandom, artist interviews, music community, alternative music podcast

  • Sad Songs Happy Hour, That Bar Is in Hell, Mental Health, and Disabled Joy
    2026/05/05
    Amanda Miles and Chad Cochran bring sonically disparate, but thematically similar, music to Dive Bar Music Club. We end up with some deep conversation about taking care of our mental health and how that impacts the music community. The playlist moves through love, loss, and nostalgia. Amanda shares her latest Jason Isbell obsession, Chad leans into indie rock and some 90s throwbacks, and together we talk about how music becomes a lifeline during tough times. Amanda shares a bit about her progressive blindness, how it impacts her when going to see bands and venues lack accessibility, and teases an upcoming feature regarding her diagnosis in Bodies of Opinion.Catch Our Tastemaker PlaylistsApple Music Tidal Bands and Musicians Featured in Episode 8Willow Avalon w/ Jason IsbellElla LangleyThe Afghan WhigsLuke Combs w/ Alison KraussPaul McCartneyArcwelderMental Health Resources If you need immediate support, call or text 988 in the USA for connection to a trained volunteer who can help.NAMINuci's SpaceYour state occupational health or vocational rehabilitation officeMusic Health AllianceMusiCaresSims FoundationHAAM (Health Alliance for Austin Musicians)The RegularsChad CochranAmanda MilesSloane SpencerMusicians, Venues, Events, and Themes Referenced in This EpisodeAlan JacksonAppalachian State UniversityAthensAtlantaBodies of OpinionBrian Lee BrownBirminghamBowling GreenChicagoCoca-Cola AmphitheaterDave GrohlDavid ByrneFaith HillGarth BrooksJack WhiteJim WhiteLaughing HyenasLive NationLinda RonstadtLuaka BopMadison Square GardenMartina McBrideMinneapolisMiranda LambertNational Independent Venue Association (NIVA)Nelsonville Music FestivalNew Disabled SouthOhioOkemahPatrick KeelerRaconteursRed Rocks AmphitheatreReba McEntireRingo StarrRyman AuditoriumSteve AlbiniTabernacleTedeschi Trucks BandThem Crooked VulturesTouch and Go RecordsTopher BrownTyler ChildersVince GillWhite StripesWoody Guthrie Folk FestivalWynonna JuddRecommended If You Likedive bar music club, music podcast, 90s alt rock, emerging songwriters, Jason Isbell, Luke Combs, Alison Krauss, Ella Langley, mental health and music, concert photography, music festivals, country music scene, music recommendations, indie music, music accessibility, songwriter interviews, music playlists, music discussions, Americana music, music industry insights, Dive Bar Music Club podcast, music podcast 2026, indie music discussion, 90s alt rock nostalgia, indie rock playlist, Americana music podcast, country music deep dive, Jason Isbell fans, Willow Avalon Cardinal Sin, Luke Combs Alison Krauss duet, Ella Langley cover songs, Toby Keith cover reinterpretation, music and mental health, music as therapy, emotional connection to music, nostalgic music themes, love and loss songs, sad music playlist, songwriting and storytelling, emerging artists 2025, indie folk and synth folk, Icelandic folk music, live music culture, concert photography, music festivals 2026, backstage photography, touring musicians life, TikTok music discovery, viral music trends, album recommendations podcast, Paul McCartney new music, Afghan Whigs comeback, Arc Welder band, college rock revival, 90s music revival, alternative rock discussion, music community podcast, disabled joy and music, accessibility in live music venues, mental health in music industry, musicians mental health advocacy, music and identity, podcast music recommendations, discovering new artists, genre-blending playlists, music nerd culture

  • Record Store Day, Public Radio, and Music Loose Associations
    2026/04/20
    We’re big fans of public radio and festivals for music discovery. Charles Hale and Nelson Gullett had a small world radio-meets-real-life Big Ears connection. Public radio keeps new music alive and thriving, even as the federal government slashed budgets and extremist subcultures try to wield power over art.Driver 8 Records gears up for Record Store Day and launches a vinyl record club. Sloane Spencer continues to float her musical loose associations, this time sharing, "If Randy Newman, Leon Russell, and Levon Helm hung out listening to the Beatles, this might be the song they wrote." So pour yourself something nice, slide into the booth, and get ready for a mix of good stories and the kind of musical rabbit holes you’ll be glad you fell into.Catch Our Tastemaker PlaylistsApple MusicTidalBands Featured in Episode 7FleaJesse Ed DavisKathleen EdwardsKruangbinLeon BridgesThe MontvalesNeko CaseSilver SkylarksYagodySupport Your Local Public Radio StationWDVX KRFCRecord Store Day & Driver 8 Records' Record ClubDriver 8 RecordsThe RegularsNelson GullettCharles HaleSloane SpencerMusicians, Festivals, Venues, and Events Mentioned in this EpisodeAlbert KingAmelia DayAnna ButtersAngine de PoitrineArlo GuthrieBarley's KnoxvilleBlack PumasBlind Boys of AlabamaBloodshot BillBob DylanBrennan WedlBugs BunnyButch HancockCarolina Chocolate DropsCharles MingusCharlie SniderChris StapletonChris ThileChristopher Paul StellingColin CrippsDriver 8 RecordsDr. JohnDuane AllmanGrant AldenGrateful DeadGwenifer RaymondHaley HeynderickxInternational AnthemJason IsbellJeff ParkerJimmy Dale GilmoreJohn LennonKaoru WatanabeKasey MusgravesKatie CrutchfieldKen PomeroyLeon RussellLevon HelmLucinda WilliamsMarket Square, Knoxville, TNMichael StipeMJ LendermanNick CaveNo DepressionNonesuch RecordsPeter BuckR.E.M.Randy NewmanRed Hot Chili PeppersRichard ThompsonSmoking Dave and the Primo DopesSturgill SimpsonTaj MahalThe BeatlesThe SteelDriversTodd SniderTom PettyThom YorkeTortoiseBig Ears FestivalThirty TigersTyler ChildersWaxahatcheeWDVXWREKKRFCWu FeiRecommended If You Likedive bar music club podcast, music discovery podcast, public radio music, indie music podcast, alternative rock discussion, 90s alt rock fans, eclectic music playlist, underground music scene, college radio influence, music nerd community, songwriter interviews podcast, record store culture, vinyl collecting community, record store day events, independent record stores, emerging artists spotlight, live music festivals USA, Big Ears Festival Knoxville, Americana music scene, folk and bluegrass artists, experimental music performances, Ukrainian folk band modern, jazz fusion discussion, Flea trumpet album, avant garde jazz artists, Kathleen Edwards music, Americana singer songwriter, Waxahatchee influence, indie folk duos, music recommendations podcast, album deep dives, music storytelling songs, public radio funding importance, listener supported radio, music community building, local music scenes USA, Texas indie soul music, Khruangbin style vibes, Leon Bridges collaboration, new music discovery 2026, public radio music discovery, Dive Bar Music Club, 90s alt rock, Knoxville music festival, Big Ears Festival, emerging touring songwriters, eclectic music, music playlists, public radio funding, local music scene, music obsession, record store culture, independent radio stations, music community, music recommendations, exploration of new music, artist interviews, vinyl records, music nerds, music events
