Episode 374 features Brad Cox of the Mouthful of Graffiti podcast and Skitzo Calypso. Brad is a longtime veteran of the Baltimore music scene and just like me he has been supporting local musicians through his podcast for years.

It is going to be a great time and if you are in the area, we hope you can make it out.

Episode 372: The Slang (John & Felix) [Pop Rock] [Ohio/DMV]

Episode 372 features The Slang. Based in both Ohio and Maryland, The Slang is the brainchild of John and Felix, who have been releasing albums for many years now. They bring a very smooth, polished indie rock sound. Their full band will be featured at this year’s PTR Fest on July 18th at Fish Head Cantina, main stage at 6 PM. Get there early. They also have the honor of being formerly self-cancelled since their last appearance on the show. So John is back to tell the tale of the fallout. On the episode I featured their brand new track “lies, lies, lies” if you like you can stream it wherever you like.    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 371: Gardenwalk (Alternative) [Catonsville, MD]

Episode 371 features Gardenwalk from Catonsville, Maryland. They are featured at this year’s 5th annual PTR Fest at Fish Head Cantina JULY 18 in Halethorpe, MD, just south of Baltimore. They will be hitting the stage at roughly 6pm so get there early! Gardenwalk channels melodic gaze-core, drawing from shoegaze, post-hardcore, and alternative. Their sound juxtaposes delicate vocals with atmospheric grit, balancing fragility with catharsis. They are currently in the process of writing new music and I featured a short snippet of one of their new demos called “Playlist for the Moon.” In the interview, I spoke with Shaina and Brad. We talked about starting a new band after playing in many bands over the years, the Baltimore music scene, and much more.     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.
