So wait to ll we hear this track.

1:12 Speaker 2: It's a very very strong opener, so really cool. So we're gonna do that in just a moment. I do want to also acknowledge a couple of people in the chat room. EASYG is in there. Hello, EASYG. Jay Bellow from the band Chasing the Devil is in the chat room. We love Jay, love that band. Maybe we'll play some Chasing the Devil a little later in the show. I'd love to play one of theirs. Can't play the newest one until I get a radio edit because there's a lot there's a bad word in it that I can't take. I can't edit it myself without ruining the song.

1:41 Speaker 2: So if we get a radio edit from those guys, we'll play it for you, but I'll play one of their older ones. I love Chasing the Devil, And we have Kenny Truon in the Facebook live chat says good morning to Matt and Jenny. Kenny Truon.

Shall we say, if you missed it. I did play it at the open of the show today, but we'll play it again.

10:06 Speaker 2: Oh my god. I love it. Appropriately titled epic One that is ever Felt from their brand new album Stirring Awake, And we've got Adam Seglitch with us. Let me get that mic up there. Hello Adam, Hey, what's up man?

10:18 Speaker 4: How you doing? Man?

10:19 Speaker 2: Good good, Welcome back to the show. It's good to talk to you. I love the new album. I was I was in the whole thing really really good. And that is a that is a great way to open. I love that.

10:33 Speaker 4: Yeah, man, that song.

10:35 Speaker 8: That was the song that we we were working on even when we released the ep That's something that's been with us for a little while now and uh, you know, Corey really brought that that whole that that rift, that that opening rift there. It actually originally began with the the intro and the outro music with the beautiful there. Yeah, and it became what it became. But uh, you know, the song epic one really is about the idea. You know, Confucius said the greatest glory is not never falling, but in rise and every time you fall.

11:02 Speaker 1: And so the concept behind this song is that you must be willing to fall in.

11:06 Speaker 8: Order to learn to rise, okay, and so and and and then also it talks about the idea of of you know, braving the unknown within yourself in order to do so in the gray area of what you don't know about you.

11:19 Speaker 1: And so that's the that's the premise of the song.

11:22 Speaker 2: Anyway, Yeah, yeah, I like it. Uh so what is the premise of the album? Because in listening to the whole thing, and I listened to it all at once, all the way through, and I felt like there's a there's a theme, there's a story. But I but I want to ask you about that?

11:34 Speaker 1: Am I?

11:34 Speaker 2: Am I reading into it? Or or is there something You're exactly right?

11:38 Speaker 1: The Stirring to Wake.

11:39 Speaker 8: Really the entire album in a nutshell is really every single song is philosophically, philosophically driven with the ideal of Stirring to Wake one soul where our band, you know, we're all about soul metal, and for us, it's more about, you know, the world will teach you mind body soul, but really it should be soul mind body, and because for us we believe in the eternal soul. Though we're not religious, but we do believe in the eternal soul, and we think that that's the one thing neglected by most of the world, even ourselves.

12:10 Speaker 8: And uh so the idea is to you know, the stirring to Wait concept came from you know that that that that place between dreaming and waking where like even the greatest minds from the past, like Tesla and Einstein and all they they would even like try to induce themselves into that place in order to find answers to to to the inventions or whatever they were doing in actual reality. And it's kind of like you know, going to that place within yourself, being willing to take that journey within.

12:37 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting that you bring that up about you know that that place between you know, sort of being asleep and awake, when you're sort of almost it's like you're you're sort of dreaming a little bit sometimes but you kind of know you're dreaming because you're kind of still half awake, and right, I I talk about that a lot. But I don't know if you know this about me. I'm also a hypnotherapist. And I tell all my I remember, yeah, okay, we did talk about that, And I tell all my clients, I say, you know, when you're in that that state, you're highly suggestible.

13:03 Speaker 2: So that's a great like if you're someone who falls asleep slowly at night, that's a great time to give yourself, you know, hypnotics suggestions that you know you're you're in a wake up feeling great and motivated or whatever it is your your goal is, but it it's But I'm glad you brought it up because it's such a powerful That is a powerful state to be in that state between right right between being asleep and being awake. And unfortunately, I don't think everyone gets to experience it the same way, because some people, you know, fall asleep quickly wake up quickly.

13:31 Speaker 2: But but for those of us who do get to experience it. Yeah, that's that's it's it's very powerful and and it's so interesting to me that that maybe that's part of why in listening to this I connected with it, because, like I said, I listened to the whole thing all the way through and I was just so so drawn into it. And uh and and and absolutely absolutely.

13:51 Speaker 8: I mean when we when we wrote the album in and then we were trying to decide strong order, I I purposefully put this was in order the way that they are on the album, so that they kind of give you almost a ride, almost like a roller coaster.

14:05 Speaker 9: You know.

14:05 Speaker 8: It goes from spoken word, open word, spoken word poetry to epic one and then we hit you in the face with sludge, you know.

14:11 Speaker 1: So it's like it's a it's this whole and each song has you know, each song has its own way. I'm sure you notice that in the album.

14:18 Speaker 8: Even though it's a cohesive album, every song is not like the last one, you know, right, and each have their own story in a way.

14:25 Speaker 2: Absolutely. Now, who is in the who's in the band?

14:30 Speaker 4: Is it the same?

14:31 Speaker 2: Is it the same lineup as the last time we talked?

14:34 Speaker 1: It is not so since the last time you and I.

14:36 Speaker 8: So, I think it's been like almost two years now, probably since we released the EP in twenty four. Yeah, so it's been almost two years. But but yeah, since the last time we talked. We right after we released the EP. We actually lost three members of our band. At that time, Corey and I were the only ones left. Oh wow, yeah, man, and uh we didn't miss any shows either. We were able to find Danny Danny Furlong's our percussion now and then Ryan Moore. We call him Momo. He's our rhythm bass plus our sound and tech guy.

15:06 Speaker 8: He's he makes it possible. Momo makes it possible for us to have one guitarist, where Corey took over both rhythm and lead for this for our band now, so there's only one guitarist.

15:16 Speaker 1: But but yeah, with.

15:18 Speaker 8: Momo's ability on the rhythm bass, you know, he really brought the song Silhouette to the table for us with his ability, he really gives us a fullness where even when we're playing live, Corey is still able to hit all his leads and it still sounds really full because Momo don't just play re root notes. You know, he's very, very influenced by Justin Chancellor, so from tools, so he's, uh, you know, that's perfect for our sounds.

15:41 Speaker 2: So oh yeah, absolutely, is it? So you lost three people at once in the band? I mean that's a that's a pretty big shakeout, was that? I mean how was that?

15:50 Speaker 7: Was?

15:50 Speaker 6: That?

15:51 Speaker 2: Was that hard?

15:52 Speaker 4: Yeah?

15:52 Speaker 8: Yeah, it was difficult because and and and the main reason that that has so so originally we lost the bass player because he did and basically we were booking a lot of shows and he just wanted to play like, you know, places around local and he didn't really want to travel.

16:07 Speaker 1: So that's really the reason he left the band.

16:09 Speaker 8: And then and then we lost the drummer because he was moving away, and then we lost the guitarists because his woman got pregnant didn't want him in the band anymore.

16:16 Speaker 1: So it was all happened in like a two week period, and it was like, what is happening? We just recorded the EP, we had all these shows. So what happened was is we ended.

16:24 Speaker 8: Up I found Momo. Momo actually works with me, but and I didn't know he was as good as he is. But but we you know, we got him on. When Jason left the bass player, we got Momo and the moment was with us with the other guys too, and then the other guys left like a week later, and and so what we ended up doing was we had like a three week period, but we had two shows still happening, So I didn't I don't really like canceling. So yeah, we ended up playing me Momo and Corey ended up playing those two shows.

16:50 Speaker 8: In the interim when we were looking for a drummer, just we did an acoustic set of our metal metal show and and uh, and yeah it was it was awesome, but uh but yeah, and then we found Danny and Danny as a well you heard.

17:02 Speaker 1: Him on the album. He's he's amazing, you know, and you know you know Cory.

17:06 Speaker 2: So when when you when that happened? When when all this tumult is happening, I mean, was there ever a moment where you thought, maybe, you know, maybe this is it, maybe we do something new, or or were you determined right right through that whole period.

17:19 Speaker 1: Now we're gonna keep determined.

17:21 Speaker 8: Yeah, there was there was no way we were going to let go they ever felt sound what what Corey and I had, you know, because him and I, even though we had the other three members.

17:29 Speaker 1: Him and I were really the you know, the core of what we were doing. The sound.

17:33 Speaker 8: You know, Corey really brings that psychedelic He's like they gave David Gilmore metal to me, reminds me kind of reminds me of Randy Roads a little bit too, and and with that Black Sabbath influence and also painful. And then also you know he's a big on Slayer and stuff like that, and and uh, well, Corey's ability to bring that to the table and then you know what I'm already naturally doing. So as long as we had Corey and I, we were able to build, you know. But if I lost Cory too, I probably would have been starting a new band.

17:58 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So were you and Corey in a band together prior to Ever Felt or or It?

18:04 Speaker 10: No?

18:05 Speaker 2: No, okay, no.

18:06 Speaker 1: I met Corey in twenty twenty two.

18:09 Speaker 8: We actually I found out about the band him and this our old old old drummer was trying to put together on on Craiglist of all places, and yeah, man, and and so I went over there, and you know from the very first practice where I just went over there just freestyle vocals, just to just to try to you know, basically trying out to be their vocalist, you know. From then on, him and I just hit it up. The song Medicaid was one of the first songs we played. It became Medicaid, but at the time, you know, it was just.

18:37 Speaker 1: It was just a diddy. It was just a little riff, you know.

18:39 Speaker 8: Yeah, And and even epic one stranger on the album was originally created back then, back in when we first met. So some of the songs that are on this this album are actually some of our original stuff we were working on that just didn't make it on the epeaks.

18:53 Speaker 1: It wasn't ready yet.

18:54 Speaker 2: Oh okay, gotcha. And so this came out in December, correct, yeah, December fifteen, okay, okay. And it's on all the platforms and everything obviously.

19:03 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it's everywhere. Man, even band Camp. We got it on there, too.

19:06 Speaker 2: Excellent, excellent. Band Camp is great. I always encourage people to check out band camp because not only is it a great resource for new music, but what a lot of people don't realize is the files that you get from band camp are superior to what you would get, you know, if you're just streaming it on YouTube. For example, yeah, you got you.

19:23 Speaker 8: Keep like one hundred percent pin on when the person buys your your discography, your album, you get, you get like one hundred percent of the purchase.

19:29 Speaker 1: Yep, there's there's so much. It's more artists driven, yes, than other platforms.

19:34 Speaker 8: And you know what's crazy is I was working with Metal Devastation PR with this album, working with another promo company too, but I was working with him and he was like, man, you guys aren't on band camping And I thought, I don't know why I thought this, but I thought that if we were on all you that we had to choose either oh, Spotify or band camp And that wasn't the case at all. And I'm really glad that he hit you know, made me hip to that because yeah, it's been awesome since we've been on there.

19:57 Speaker 2: So oh absolutely, yeah, very good. What's what's a response been?

20:01 Speaker 7: Like?

20:01 Speaker 2: I mean, are obviously you have longtime fans who are probably are enjoying the I feel like this is your best work that I've heard so far of this album. I mean, has that kind of been what the response is overall?

20:12 Speaker 1: Oh?

20:13 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's been overwhelming. The response has been phenomenal. We we you know, not only do we, I mean we're booking into August of next year. Now that's how I mean we really booked. I mean, we are definitely booking up. But also you know, the response on on the different radio station is different, different. The reviews that have been done of the album have been just super unbelievable.

20:33 Speaker 11: Man.

20:33 Speaker 7: Uh.

20:34 Speaker 8: We feel like this is the best work we've ever done as artists so far, and and we we feel that way. We felt it when we were recording it and when we were creating it. But you know, when we hear that from other people, when when a lot of the responses like this is none like anything they've heard before.

20:49 Speaker 1: No one's doing what you're doing, that kind of thing.

20:52 Speaker 8: That matters to us because we we to us, it's all about staying true to the sound and and what whatever feelt is and making sure that we capture that Akadelic groove metal as we are. And I think that, you know, there's not a whole lot of people out there doing what we do, and so I'm really proud of that because you know, as a band, we really allow the music to happen to us more than just trying to We don't ever get in the studio and say, oh, we're going to go.

21:17 Speaker 1: For a sound or let's sound like this. It's it's never like that.

21:20 Speaker 8: It's always it's always we're all willing to be the channel for the music together. And I think that that's why it's fluid as it is, because even now we have the we have all of the song ideas for the next album. Oh wow, we're yeah, we're working on those now. We're gonna be releasing another one at the end of this year.

21:38 Speaker 2: Oh no, kidding, excellent, Wow. Yeah, you guys are crand a year. Yeah. Sure, Oh that's fantastic. Yeah. Did you record where did you record this album? Because it sounds so good, I mean, sonically, it's it's just outstanding. Did you record this the same way you did your previous work or somewhere new?

21:55 Speaker 8: Yes, sir, Yeah, that was with Shelby Brucless at Loud and Clear Studios and Paducaucky Okay, he is the guy who also did our EP. And he's amazing because not only as he obviously as you can hear, he's obvious, amazing, amazing engineer and knows what he's doing, but he is he makes the experience just so comfortable.

22:13 Speaker 1: Like when we go there, we stay the whole weekend.

22:15 Speaker 8: At the studio, the whole band, and we you know, it's like we're at practice, it's like we're at home. And so it's it's just such a comfortable experience, the way that he has a set up, the way we do the crash tracks, and and he's so so awesome because for him, you know, I don't I don't think all engineers and producers are like this, but for him, he wants to make sure more than anything, that what we want to hear on the album is what's there, not what he thinks.

22:39 Speaker 1: Should be there.

22:40 Speaker 8: And uh, I think that that's you know, you don't find that everywhere. And uh and it's affordable. So we were super stoked. And even if even if somehow someday we end up, you know, really going somewhere with this, you know, and they offer us to you know, to go to the state of the art studio to record, we're bringing Shelby with us.

22:58 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I don't blame you. Clearly the results are there now you mentioned so he's in Kentucky. Where are you guys located again?

23:07 Speaker 1: Uh? Southern Illinois.

23:08 Speaker 2: Southern Illinois that's what I thought. Yeah, I'm sure we talked about this before, but I spent a lot of time in Illinois growing up because my uh, when my parents split up and my mother moved back to Illinois, I would spend the summers out there. So I love Illinois. Oh yeah, great, great, great state. What's the music scene like where you guys are, because you mentioned that there's not a lot of people in your area who are doing what you're doing, right, the psychedelic groove metal like, like, well, yeah, tell me about the scene there.

23:35 Speaker 1: Well, for us, we uh in southern Illinois. It's uh, it's hit and miss.

23:40 Speaker 8: But to be honest, we are actually even if you google us today, we're considered a Saint Louis based band. Okay, we play all of our music in Saint Louis pretty much. We have a couple of shows locally, but almost everything we do now is in Saint Louis.

23:51 Speaker 1: Yeah, we have some of the biggest shows we ever boked. We're about to play.

23:56 Speaker 8: We're playing Pops twice in Saint Louis on January twenty third, February three thirteenth, and then we're going to play the Contrarian Concert Hall and fastest Missouri right outside Saint Louis.

24:05 Speaker 1: But the big show that I'm super extoked about. I may almost stoked.

24:08 Speaker 8: About all of our shows, but the one I really am very proud of is the Sovereign. It's a brand new it's a nineteen hundred capacity down downtown Saint Louis, the Saint Louis Arts District, and the owner, you know, got a hold of me to build the entire show. So yeah, pretty odd. I mean we got to build and it's it's gonna be amazing. But but yeah, so so really Saint Louis Is and the scene is amazing in Saint Louis. I mean, the amount of venues to play, the amount of genres of music is you know, there's a plethora, and and we love that because you know, like for instance, like we're playing the Road to Point Fest at Pops again.

24:43 Speaker 1: We played last year, We're playing again.

24:44 Speaker 8: But then we had the metal bands in Saint Louis actually invite us to play back at Pops, not not for a contest, but for a metal showcase on February thirteenth. And you know, there's a bunch of bands they could have asked to come do that you know, for that and they ask us and you know, it means everything to us.

25:00 Speaker 1: Yeah, Saint Louis is really where we play all of our music.

25:02 Speaker 8: It's really we're considered a Saint Louis band, but we you know, we we live about two hours from there, to be honest.

25:08 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, that's that's great obviously. Yeah, Saint Louis is a great city. And no, it's good to be associated with that scene. Uh no doubt. So you're so you're actually closer to Saint Louis than uh than Chicago? Right?

25:24 Speaker 11: Oh?

25:25 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, we are. Do you know where Carbondell is?

25:28 Speaker 8: I I have a vague idea Marion, Maryon, Illinois, Okay, so there, Yeah, yeah, I work in Marion. Oh okay, Yeah, so I'm about I'm about forty minutes. I live in Murphy'sboro, Illinois, okay. And then the other guys they live in Benton and West Frankfurt. So we're about forty minutes apart. But we practice every Sunday. And yeah, I think works with me.

25:47 Speaker 2: So yeah, no, that's that's cool. It's funny too that you know, you guys work together and then but then you didn't know until recently. Just how good of a musician he like prior to that, prior to him becoming a part of the band, or or or coming to audition or however it worked. I mean, did did did you guys talk about the band a lot?

26:06 Speaker 8: Like?

26:06 Speaker 2: Was he already aware of the band?

26:09 Speaker 5: Yeah?

26:09 Speaker 8: He knew about us, because you know, he would, you know, he would we were still playing, he would, you know, know about the shows I'd be talking about. I'd play the EP, you know, at the store and yeah, and he would tell me he's a bass player, and he showed me some of his stuff because he you know, he played in a few bands.

26:23 Speaker 1: He got to open for Ozzie one time.

26:25 Speaker 8: Oh wow, uh yeah, he got to open for who was it warrant Warrant, He got to play with them once.

26:31 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a little jealous of that.

26:33 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah.

26:36 Speaker 1: He would tell me those stories and everything.

26:38 Speaker 8: And then when Jason are former bass player, started you know, being real flaky and acting like like not responding, not wanting to play shows, and acting like he was kind of stepping away.

26:46 Speaker 10: M M.

26:46 Speaker 8: I told him, I was like, hey, man, I was like, there might be an opportunity here for you to join the band if you want audition and and then you know, he played our song the Lie in the audition and he tore it apart. I mean not not not to you know, say anything negative about Jason, but he was more of a root note guy.

27:02 Speaker 1: And when when Momo stepped up like.

27:04 Speaker 8: All over that base, I was like, yeah, so so yeah, And not only is Momo an amazing bass player, but he is the most genius soundtech guy. We finally got a rack system. We can control our own sound on stage nice and it's all it's all due to him. I wouldn't know, I wouldn't begin to know how to make any of that happen. But yeah, but yeah, he's and he's hilarious. He's the I mean, he is the comic relief.

27:28 Speaker 1: Of the band.

27:29 Speaker 2: So oh that's cool too. Yeah, that's good.

27:32 Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta have that.

27:33 Speaker 2: That's really good. What do you play live? Do you play the whole album? Yeah?

27:38 Speaker 4: So it depends on the show.

27:39 Speaker 1: So like today we have a show.

27:41 Speaker 8: We're playing a show for a fundraiser event for a guy biker had lost his life for his family, raising money for his family, and then for a couple of dispensaries were raising money for them, and so that's so for instance, just to explain, so that's like five or six bands playing that. So we're only going to do a forty five minute set there and it's an all day event, but we're playing at like six thirty. But next weekend when we play at the Road to Point Fest, it pops. It's a thirty minute sets. We're only doing five songs, you know, Yeah, because it's concept and so it depends on the venue and how many bands.

28:12 Speaker 8: But but yeah, what normally happens when we get a forty five minute set, we get to play the entire album plus Reach from the EP.

28:19 Speaker 1: Okay, and then whenever we we have our May.

28:23 Speaker 8: Twenty third album release show and we're going to be playing our entire discography. We really love when we're able to do that because it's like two hours of music. Yeah, and and yeah, that's that's fun because you know, we get to let loose and just.

28:36 Speaker 2: Play Reach is a great song too. I'm glad you mentioned it because I love that song because we I remember we played that. I believe it was the last time you're on the show. We played that, Yeah, because I think that had just come out. That's such a great track too. Absolutely absolutely, Oh and also too. I mean, obviously I've asked you this before, but I don't remember what the answer was. And for newer listeners who aren't familiar, where where does the name ever Felt come from? And what does it mean?

29:01 Speaker 8: So the name ever Felt was originally came from So I have a best friend named Charles linger Felt that I did my first album with him when I was nineteen, called Clinch.

29:10 Speaker 1: We had just me and him.

29:11 Speaker 8: He did all the music. I did the vocals and lyrics, and I didn't know at all what I was doing then. And over the years, you know, we wrote many much music together and became like brothers. And he passed away in twenty twenty one from cancer, okay, and all suddenly. Actually we had a project going called anger Felt when that happened. And so when he passed away, we actually just went to Florida to play music. We came back and I literally had to drop him off at the UK hospital and he didn't make it.

29:39 Speaker 8: I didn't see him again. He went to a coma his first treatment of chemotherapy. And yeah, last time I talked to him was a thirty minute like interview. I mean, thirty minute conversational messenger. But anyway, so when he passed, you know, with his last name being linger Felt and with us having the project anger Felt, I wanted him to be forever Felt and any music that I ever do from the moment from now on, and and so the name ever Felt was born. Okay, that's how it became that. Okay, okay, yeah, I do, I do recall you and now you know,

30:18 Speaker 8: and now it's like, you know, although that was the original of the origin of how the name became what it is now, it's it's more about as a band.

30:27 Speaker 1: It's more about have you ever felt music like this before?

30:30 Speaker 2: Okay?

30:32 Speaker 1: You know, have you ever felt like you know lyrics and so so really it's a it's a play on words.

30:37 Speaker 8: But also it originally became you know, I wanted I wanted Charlie to be forever Felt in the music.

30:42 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's right. I do remember now, I do remember you talking about that, and uh yeah, wow, No, that's a that's a great that's a great way to kind of you know, carry on his his memory. And you know, obviously he was somebody very important in your life, you know, being there at kind of the beginning of your career and being such a big part of it. And uh, that's that's terrible what happened to him.

31:04 Speaker 1: He taught me so much. Yeah, yeah, he taught me a lot.

31:09 Speaker 2: Yeah. Okay. Wow. By the way, so is any of the the original the anger Felt or or or the first the first things that you recorded with him? Is any of that online still or.

31:23 Speaker 1: It's not online?

31:25 Speaker 8: I do have some of that those recordings, but we never we never post we never like published, like, we never released it or anything. We had just finished the album anger for the Engerfelt album, and we were we went to Florida to play a couple of shows down there.

31:39 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then when we came back, he you know, and that was it.

31:43 Speaker 8: And uh and and honestly, I have a couple of actually, I have a couple of songs from when we had a band called Chaotic Harmony years ago when I was like thirty and uh, and we had that band, and so I've got some music from before. But the Anger Felt music is I don't know. I think his daughter has some of it still, but that's not out there anywhere unfortunately.

32:04 Speaker 7: Yeah.

32:05 Speaker 8: Yeah, no, I will say our song River, that's only the song River on the EP was original melody by Charlie. That song was a song that was his that I brought to when we first started this this band.

32:19 Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, oh interesting, very good. Now so what uh what what do you guys have? So you have a show tonight, right, you said? And you are you playing in Saint Louis tonight?

32:30 Speaker 1: Yeah?

32:31 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, it's actually it's Martha'sville, Missouri, like right outside Saint Louis. But yeah, yeah, we're playing. We're playing at Corey Gables and it's gonna be a it's for a Originally was a dispensary show and then it became a dual show where it's a biker had lost his life, so they're doing a fundraiser and they moved the show to the bar where the fundraiser is, so it's kind of a dual thing.

32:53 Speaker 1: But but yeah, we're we're stoked to do it.

32:56 Speaker 4: Man.

32:57 Speaker 8: You know, they they've already I mean, they are already sent us everything we need to get there and get back before we even played any music, which I thought was pretty awesome.

33:04 Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, no, that's good. You know, it's going to be able to do things like that and and do you know, do things that are that are positive and helping people and uh you know that's that's what it's all about. And uh no, I think that's I think that's great. So Adam work. Yeah, man, absolutely, Oh go ahead.

33:21 Speaker 1: Oh well I didn't say anything.

33:22 Speaker 2: Oh okay, sorry, I thought I thought we lost you there for a second. I think we have I think we have a slight delay. No, you were you were, you were starting to say something and I think I I interrupted you or maybe not.

33:34 Speaker 8: No, No, you didn't.

33:35 Speaker 1: You didn't interrupt me.

33:36 Speaker 2: You're good brother, Okay, cool? Yeah, No, I think we have a slight delay on the that happens online. But no big deal. No where where where should people go online to keep up with everything that I ever Felt is doing and and to get the get the album and everything?

33:49 Speaker 11: What?

33:50 Speaker 2: What where should people know about where to go online?

33:52 Speaker 1: So so the easiest thing to do is just to go to ever felt dot net.

33:58 Speaker 8: Okay, website where you can access all of our all of our social media platforms are on the on there.

34:03 Speaker 1: You can go to our Spotify, our bank camp. Everything ever felt.

34:06 Speaker 8: Is on everfelt dot net, so you can find all our shows, everything you want to know about us there. But if you want to purchase the album or you want to listen to it, it's on all the streamings, band camp everywhere, but you can access that through the website. So it's so much easier just to go to that one place and not have a bunch of you know, a bunch of links to try to remember anything.

34:24 Speaker 1: So yeah, ever felt dot net.

34:26 Speaker 2: Did somebody else already have ever felt dot com?

34:29 Speaker 8: I'm just yeah, I don't know if they I don't know if it's I don't know if they have it or not, but it was that. That was just the domain that band zoogle offered me when I created the website.

34:39 Speaker 2: Gotcha, gotcha.

34:40 Speaker 1: But I don't know why it's not a dot com.

34:42 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder. I wonder if there's like a company that makes pool tables or something called ever Felt and maybe they have ever felt dot com or something. That's probably true, Probably probably no. But it's good that you have a cent.

34:57 Speaker 5: You know.

34:57 Speaker 2: It's funny a lot of bands don't don't have websites anymore. They just rely on Instagram or whatever, and it's like, yeah, you still gotta have a website. So I think it's great that you guys have a website and it is a like you said, it's a great central hub for everything that you're looking for, all things ever felt, just go to everfelt dot net. That's the way to do it. So I agree, yes, sir. In a moment, Adam, we'll let you go. You've been generous with your time this morning, and we appreciate it.

43:20 Speaker 2: I don't know if Jay is still listening. Hello Jay if you are, but I think you're gonna spin this track. This is the first Chasing the Devil song that we ever played. We did the world radio premiere for it when it came out a couple of years ago, two three years ago. I don't know at the time. It just goes so fast, however long ago it was. But I do still love this song so much. I really like everything that they do. But this was the first single. This is beautiful nightmare. If you haven't heard this, check this out.

43:45 Speaker 2: This is so good By Chasing the Devil, he stays.

44:20 Speaker 5: Not keeping between the lines to the know the series.

45:27 Speaker 5: None they say some class out around, don't know sount touch on don from down son sat down a way out the same class. The spelling im fun down nine.

46:07 Speaker 14: This is the last side, say down the way I'll say last seventy.

46:34 Speaker 4: Hold and on hold and know to this too much, too long, to.

46:46 Speaker 7: Of this too much.

46:48 Speaker 4: It's you go to get this person so you can toss.

47:47 Speaker 2: That is beautiful Nightmare, the debut single from Chasing the Devil. I still love it as much as the first time I heard it. It's such a great track. Be sure to check out their newest song, which is called Liar. I'm not playing that one here because we need a radio edit of that one before we can play it. Excuse me, I think I had when I first came out. I talked about on the show how you know I make radio edits of songs. In fact, the next song that I'm gonna play for you in a moment is something that I made a radio edit of to be able to play it.

48:15 Speaker 2: But the song Liar by Chasing the Devil, it's one of those songs where I feel like if I went in and reversed where all the swears are, it would actually wreck the song.

48:24 Speaker 11: You know.

48:24 Speaker 2: It's one of those things, one of those judgment calls. So I'm gonna wait for them to if they have a radio edit at some point, we'll play it. But I'm not gonna make my own because I don't think I can do it without ruining the chorus is similar, very similar to Kenny Troon. You know, he has a song called don't this thing up? Or this one up? Is it don't mess or not? It's not mess? He says something else that starts with an F that you know you can't say on the radio. Don't this thing or this one? Is it this thing or this one?

48:54 Speaker 2: I can't remember. It's a song Jenny listens to all the time because she loves it. Great, great song. But it was when that came out, it was like, I can't make a radio edit of this one because if I do, it's it's actually going to kind of wreck the chorus of the song. So I'm going to let that one be. When Kenny was here live on the show, he self censored when he played it. Instead of saying what it actually says, he said mess instead of the word that we cannot say on FM radio. So he just did it live and and just kind of self edited that way, and it was really really cool.

49:27 Speaker 2: The next song though we're gonna play We did open the show with it today, but we're gonna play it again. We are featuring the world radio premiere of the new single from Kenny Troon called We All Saw the Same Thing, And this one I was able to make a radio edit of, but it's I think it's an important statement, so I wanted to play it. So I'm gonna play it again for you and and let's see and then we'll see what else, what else we can do with the remainder of this hour. But I think when we come back from this too, I'm gonna talk about what Jenny and I are doing tonight because we're gonn to be a jewel jewel music venue right across the street here on Canal Street in Manchester, New Hampshire.

50:06 Speaker 2: And Uh, I'll tell you what we're gonna be up to there. You can come see us and say hello. But uh, let's do this. The new single, brand new from Kenny Truon called We All Saw the Same Thing? This is uh. You're hearing it for the first time on FM radio here on Matt Connerton on leash Dot WM and H ninety five point three FM.
