The McCoy Tyler Band is a Santa Cruz, CA based alt-country trio consisting of McCoy Tyler on guitar and lead vocals, Chad Bowen on bass and vocals, and Clinton Brown on drums and vocals. Their tight three-part harmonies and impressive musical chops make for a rollicking live show. Here, they discuss their formation back in 2011 with the help of Craigslist, their collaborative process, and whether they'll ever play a show shirtless. www.themccoytylerband.com |

Singer-songwriter and Alaska native Michael Howard joins me for this week's episode. As sounds of passing floatplanes fill the air, Michael discusses the advantages and disadvantages of being an Alaska-based musician, his influences from Josh Ritter to Dr. Seuss, and turning a blip of emotion into a full-fledged song. www.facebook.com/michaelhowardalaska |

I am excited to have author and music journalist Robert Greenfield as my guest on this week's podcast. Bob has written books on the Rolling Stones, Jerry Garcia, famed rock promoter Bill Graham...the list goes on. His vast knowledge of rock and roll history comes from first hand experience, and he generously shares some of his fascinating stories here. This episode is co-hosted by John Craigie. Special thanks to Anna Greenfield. |

Songwriters Daniel Steinbock, Ayla Nereo, and John Craigie join me in an RV in the middle of the Black Rock Desert to record an episode live from Burning Man. Listen in as they meditate on playa dust, awkward onstage moments, and the role that location and environment plays in their songwriting. Each guest plays a tune and also divulges details of the very first song they ever wrote, as the persistent womp-womp of Black Rock City swirls in the background. www.danielsteinbock.com www.aylanereo.com www.johncraigiemusic.com
