Touchdowns All Day with Jon Barber & Max Dawson

E120 - 2026 And Beyond (w/Marc Brownstein)

E120 - 2026 And Beyond - Marc Brownstein [https://www.instagram.com/marcbrownstein] returns to discuss The Disco Biscuits' new lineup, their recent Jamcruise sets, and where he sees the band headed in 2026 and beyond. He describes the pressure-cooker atmosphere that surrounded the band's fall tour, his musical relationship with new drummer Marlon B. Lewis, and how he and his fellow band members have been using their time off the road this winter to write music, get healthy, and spend time with their families. Max asks if the band's light touring schedule indicates a return to a destination-era touring model, and Marc explains the hybrid approach that the band has planned for this summer and fall. PLUS, Marc shares an exclusive preview of a brand-new DJ Brownie [https://on.soundcloud.com/H4bk1wBDoHaveJW8i6] remix of the Conspirator classic [https://youtu.be/2YvQ7iOnGGE?si=LLk8Uf4s1Qcj0SEN] Orch Theme.

E119 - Welcome to the band, Marlon

E119 - Welcome to the Band, Marlon - Max is joined by Marlon B. Lewis for an interview that traces his path from Upper Darby High to Berklee College of Music to drumming for The Disco Biscuits. Marlon opens up about his musical influences, his approach to improvisation, the deep faith that guides him on stage and off, and his exhilaration over playing alongside Barber, Magner, and Brownie. He shares his feelings about the Biscuits' catalog, including the songs he's most looking forward to debuting this winter, and acknowledges the lessons he's learned from studying his predecessors Allen and Sammy. And because he's Philly born and raised, Marlon definitely has strong opinions about who's got the best cheesesteak and the Birds' and Sixers' playoff prospects. The road to New Year's Eve 2025 begins on December 18 in Minneapolis, MN.
