Episode 347: MIGGS (Pasadena, MD) [Country]

Episode 347 features MIGGS from Pasadena, Maryland, originally from Austin, Texas. I first heard him perform at the Labor Day Raft-Up hosted by Rumor Reel, and we later sat down in person at one of my favorite Annapolis bars, Dark Horse Tavern. We talked about his music and writing process, his entertainment strategy, and his backstory of moving from Texas to Maryland. MIGGSs (Miguel Rangel) is also an IT professional and a military Veteran. The episode features his song Party Ride—and if you like it, you can stream it on any major platform. He has new music dropping on February 13th, new shows announced for 2026, and his last show of 2025 is December 18th at 7 PM at Primo. Thanks for listening, and keep an eye out for Miggs coming to a bar near you.   MIGGS | Stream "PARTY RIDE" [https://miggs.komi.io/music/party-ride] MIGGS | Website [https://www.miggscountrymusic.com/] MIGGS | Promo 2025 [https://youtube.com/shorts/-eRfceERtSo?si=E0ANGiBge_V6pg7f] MIGGS | SPOTIFY [https://open.spotify.com/artist/2J9mDrDyEJzpzGRJScA5Yn?si=Wms5OeNsRFS1FaeFysSjCQ]   MIGGS | Nashville Voyager Magazine [https://nashvillevoyager.com/interview/check-out-miggss-story] MIGGS | Canvas Rebel Magazine [https://canvasrebel.com/meet-miggs-rangel/]   Facebook: @MIGGS [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61555729830009&mibextid=LQQJ4d] Instagram: @miggs.countrymusic [https://www.instagram.com/miggs.countrymusic?igsh=OGFzcGY2bXEzNWhz&utm_source=qr] YouTube: @Miggs.CountryMusic [https://youtube.com/@miggs.countrymusic?si=w1GatmKEk8QCCk86]   Please follow, rate, or review the podcast wherever you are streaming if you’d like to help us out. -- Part-Time Rockstar Productions is available in the DMV for music videos and live filming.

Episode 346: Horse Island (Charlotte, NC) [Pop Punk/Alt Rock]

Episode 346 features Horse Island, an indie rock band from Charlotte, NC. They’re playing a show this weekend at Starlight on 22nd in Charlotte with Benton and The Bleeps. The Hollow Truths were originally on the bill but unfortunately won’t be able to make it. In the interview I spoke with Christian Hall and Sean Murphy. I wanted to have the guys on to support the show and share their backstory. While Horse Island is a new project for them, they’ve been part of the scene for a while and have developed their sound through playing in previous bands. I featured their song “Some Kind of Way” on this episode, and if you like it, you can stream it wherever you listen to music.   https://horseisland.carrd.co/ [https://horseisland.carrd.co/]   Please follow, rate, or review the podcast wherever you are streaming if you’d like to help us out.  -- Part-Time Rockstar Productions is available in the DMV for music videos and live filming.

Episode 345: Mike Huff of BEES! (Arcade Rock) [Philly]

Episode 345 features Mike Huff from the Philadelphia band BEES! They’re a self-described arcade rock band, and we’re playing a show together this Saturday (November 8th) at Double Nickel Brewing in New Jersey, just outside of Philadelphia. We’ll be playing alongside our good friends The Mack Brothers and Naive Nature. This is Mike’s second or third time on the show, and we’ve been fortunate to become friends and play a bunch of shows together over the years. BEES! was one of the first bands to come on the podcast whose music I feel is truly unique and classic in its own way, largely because of Mike’s voice. On this episode, I featured “The Other Day” as well as one of their latest tracks, “If You Ask Me,” which you can stream wherever you listen to music and download from their website (listed below). Thanks for listening and supporting local artists.     https://beesphilly.com [https://beesphilly.com/]       Please follow, rate, or review the podcast wherever you are streaming if you’d like to help us out.  -- Part-Time Rockstar Productions is available in the DMV for music videos and live filming.

Epiosde 344: Shea Springer (Sweetfoot Studios) [Easton, MD]

Episode 344 features Shea Springer from Sweetfoot Studios. I've recently been recording with him, and I was eager to bring him on the podcast to share his story. Shea is an absolute blast to work with and is based in Easton, MD. In the interview, we dive into his recording process, his role as an engineer and producer, and how he keeps his business thriving in the modern music industry. We ended up doing two songs with him; one just dropped yesterday, called “Zero Sum.” We also recorded a fun parody titled "Naptown," inspired by Annapolis, Maryland. At the time of this interview, it wasn't out yet, but the music video is out now on YouTube. We filmed it all over the city. Thanks for listening and supporting local musicians!

Episode 343: Brendan Lane & LJR (We have a show together Oct 25 @galacticpanther)

Episode 343 features LJR and Brendan Lane, myself, and Felix Nieto. We all got together at Felix Studio (The Hangar Studio) to talk about our upcoming show this Saturday on October 25th at the Galactic Panther in Alexandria, VA. The bill also features You Fool! from Washington, DC. I’ve been trying to put together a show in Alexandria for many years, so it’s exciting to finally find one. It will be on King St which is the downtown area with all the cool bars and restaurants. In the conversation, we talked about Luke and Brendan's approach to being frontmen, and how they individually go about trying to captivate an audience. I last played with Brendan in Austin at SXSW, so it was fun to catch up. Luke will be doing a solo set, so he's been working hard on putting that together. He's also been working hard on TikTok, and trying to get his story across to an audience, so he had a lot to say on that subject. On the episode, I featured "More Time" by LJR and "Acid in My Coffee" by The Hollow Truths. If you’re in the DC area Saturday night, feel free to come hang out.
