Episode 374: Brad Cox (Mouthful of Graffiti Podcast & Skitzo Calypso) [Bel Air, MD]

Episode 377: Jenn's Apartment (Punk) [Lansing, MI]

Episode 377 features Jenn’s Apartment, an indie punk band from Lansing, Michigan. They have brand new music out right now. The band features Roy Kirby on guitar and vocals, Chris Davis on bass and vocals, and Justin Pine on drums and vocals originally formed in 2004, went on hiatus, and came back in 2014. They’ve kept the same lineup going strong ever since.  I featured their latest track “Summer” on this episode, as well as “Taylor Swift’s Dick.” Their sound mixes 90s alternative, early 2000s punk and emo, and straight-up rock songwriting with ringing guitars, big harmonies, and a tight rhythm section. Think The Replacements, Gaslight Anthem, Gin Blossoms, and Goo Goo Dolls with a solid Midwest DIY attitude. They’re known for high-energy live shows, funny stage banter, and just having a good time whether there are 5 people in the room or 500. Everything is DIY. They record in Justin’s basement, book their own shows, run their own label MiScene Records, and do it all on their own terms.
