3:32 Speaker 9: I would arrested over.

3:36 Speaker 10: Woolees.

4:30 Speaker 2: Good morning everybody, here we go. It is that time again,

4:37 Speaker 2: Matt Connorton Unleashed and we are live from the studios

4:42 Speaker 2: of wm NH ninety five point three FM, Inglorious, Manchester,

4:46 Speaker 2: New Hampshire. Of course, you can also stream the show

4:48 Speaker 2: from anywhere. Go to Matt connorton dot com slash live

4:51 Speaker 2: for all of your live streaming options, social media links,

4:53 Speaker 2: contact and Fox Show archives, etcetera, etcetera.

4:56 Speaker 3: Today is Saturday, February.

4:58 Speaker 2: Twenty one, two twenty six, and of course if you

5:03 Speaker 2: are local to Manchester, it's a bit of a winter

5:08 Speaker 2: wonderland out there. Had some snow overnight, not too much though.

5:11 Speaker 2: Actually the drive in this morning, I was pleasantly surprised

5:14 Speaker 2: at the condition of the roads. They're actually pretty normal,

5:17 Speaker 2: so just wet, so hopefully we're okay. And then, of

5:20 Speaker 2: course again if you're listening live on Saturday, there is

5:24 Speaker 2: another storm system I haven't looked this morning, but could

5:27 Speaker 2: potentially hit us on Sunday and to Monday. But I

5:30 Speaker 2: think the last I've seen two models for it, one

5:33 Speaker 2: that shows it hitting us, and another that shows it

5:36 Speaker 2: missing us and effectively going out to the ocean and

5:39 Speaker 2: not really you know, maybe giving us a couple inches

5:41 Speaker 2: of snow, but that's it. So I'm going to try

5:44 Speaker 2: to send as much positive energy as I can and

5:47 Speaker 2: hope that we get that version of that storm system,

5:50 Speaker 2: because I think we've had enough. But I will say

5:54 Speaker 2: to me, there's only one week left of winter anyway,

5:58 Speaker 2: And what do I mean by that? Well, today, as

6:00 Speaker 2: we do the show live is the twenty first. Now,

6:02 Speaker 2: something my father taught me when I was a kid,

6:05 Speaker 2: and I've carried this throughout my life. He liked to

6:08 Speaker 2: think of winter because he didn't like winter. I don't

6:10 Speaker 2: like winter. He liked to think of winter as really

6:12 Speaker 2: only being two months long, his logic being that most

6:16 Speaker 2: of December is technically still fall anyway. You don't really

6:20 Speaker 2: tend to get to the harsh, the really harsh winter

6:22 Speaker 2: weather until you get into January. So then you've just

6:25 Speaker 2: got You've got January and February to contend with. And

6:28 Speaker 2: that's really it. Because once you get to March, you know,

6:31 Speaker 2: most years it starts to warm up pretty quick and whatnot.

6:34 Speaker 2: But even if March is even if you get an

6:37 Speaker 2: enormous blizzard on the first of March, you kind of

6:39 Speaker 2: don't care at that point because psychologically it's like, yeah, whatever,

6:43 Speaker 2: this is all gonna melt any day now anyway, So

6:46 Speaker 2: it's just easier to deal with. So it's not even

6:48 Speaker 2: a big deal. So so from his way of thinking,

6:51 Speaker 2: which I then adapted to my way of thinking, winter

6:54 Speaker 2: is only two months long. It's January and February. So

6:56 Speaker 2: March first, to me is the first day of spring

6:59 Speaker 2: and February short month. Today's twenty first. Next Saturday, it

7:02 Speaker 2: will be the twenty eighth last day of winter. Again

7:05 Speaker 2: by my By the way, meteorologists say the same thing,

7:08 Speaker 2: because let me see if I can say it, meteorological

7:11 Speaker 2: winter is actually December, January, and February. So so a

7:14 Speaker 2: meteorologist will also tell you that in their world March

7:18 Speaker 2: versus the first day of spring.

7:19 Speaker 3: So ignore the calendar, just pay attention to the months,

7:24 Speaker 3: and March first.

7:26 Speaker 2: I will say, though, there was one year I don't know,

7:30 Speaker 2: seven or eight years ago where I remember, so we

7:35 Speaker 2: had a couple of really mild winters in a row,

7:37 Speaker 2: like really mild, and there was this one year where

7:40 Speaker 2: it was February twenty eighth, which again in my mind

7:43 Speaker 2: is the last day of winter. And I remember thinking

7:46 Speaker 2: on that day. I even I remember the exact moment

7:48 Speaker 2: this thought went through my head. I thought, Oh, another quick,

7:51 Speaker 2: easy winter. I could get used to this. But I

7:55 Speaker 2: hadn't looked at the forecast. I had no idea that

7:58 Speaker 2: the next day, March first, we were going to have

8:01 Speaker 2: an enormous blizzard. I just hadn't looked at the forecast.

8:04 Speaker 2: I do so ignorance was bliss. I'm just walking around thinking, well,

8:06 Speaker 2: there's another quick, easy winter. Great, And I had no

8:09 Speaker 2: idea what was coming and what I also had no idea,

8:12 Speaker 2: and there was no way to predict. This is because

8:14 Speaker 2: January and February that year had been very easy, that

8:17 Speaker 2: we were going to effectively get the entire winter compressed

8:21 Speaker 2: into March. It was like all the January and February

8:24 Speaker 2: winter winter weather we could have had it all happened

8:27 Speaker 2: in March, and we just got one giant snowstorm after

8:31 Speaker 2: another all throughout the month of March and March was horrible.

8:35 Speaker 2: So my way of thinking about it didn't quite pan

8:37 Speaker 2: out that particular that particular year, with that particular winter,

8:41 Speaker 2: but alas we're almost there. We're in the home stretch.

8:45 Speaker 2: This has been a cold one, that's for sure. Here's

8:47 Speaker 2: what we're gonna do, So in just a couple of minutes,

8:50 Speaker 2: we're going to be joined by Caitlin Piper. She's going

9:08 Speaker 2: We did a world radio premiere for them a few

9:10 Speaker 2: weeks ago, but they're gonna be joining us. And then

9:13 Speaker 2: in the third hour, G Girl also known as Jackie Brown.

9:17 Speaker 2: I don't know if she even really goes by G

9:18 Speaker 2: Girl anymore. I think she just uses her name now,

9:21 Speaker 2: But she hosts an online talk show called The Icy

9:24 Speaker 2: Show where she just interviews people in the music industry

9:27 Speaker 2: and other various people. Jenny was on The Icy Show

9:30 Speaker 2: with her recently, in fact, but she's gonna be here

15:57 Speaker 2: just released singles, is this gonna be your first full

15:59 Speaker 2: length album?

16:01 Speaker 15: It will be.

16:01 Speaker 16: I did an RPM album in twenty twenty four, so

16:05 Speaker 16: you do the whole you know, the whole album in

16:07 Speaker 16: the month of February and you write it and record

16:10 Speaker 16: it and release it. But this is my first true

16:12 Speaker 16: album where it's more kind of planned out and including

16:17 Speaker 16: other musicians on it as well.

16:19 Speaker 2: So the RPM challenge that's come up before on the

16:22 Speaker 2: show actually many times over the years, but I haven't

16:24 Speaker 2: heard anyone mention it recently.

16:26 Speaker 3: So you did that in twenty four Just yes.

16:29 Speaker 15: Yep, and it is alive and well.

16:32 Speaker 16: It used to be more of an in person get

16:35 Speaker 16: together piece where people would bring actual CDs and they

16:38 Speaker 16: would have listening parties, and now everything is online. But

16:41 Speaker 16: what's cool about that is that people from all over

16:44 Speaker 16: the world are listening to each other's music. So you

16:47 Speaker 16: put a map out and you can click on like

16:49 Speaker 16: you can find your town or your state and see,

16:51 Speaker 16: you know, local music around and who's putting music out.

16:54 Speaker 16: So I have an RPM single that I'm kind of

16:57 Speaker 16: working with and a friend oh, in a friend it's

17:00 Speaker 16: an a cappella song. So that's the first time I've

17:02 Speaker 16: ever done something like that. But uh yeah, we'll see,

17:06 Speaker 16: We'll see how that goes. But I'm focused on this

17:08 Speaker 16: album and putting it together and excited to get new

17:11 Speaker 16: music out. And I so appreciate you having me this morning.

17:15 Speaker 16: This is this is so nice to hear.

17:17 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, No, you're.

17:20 Speaker 15: In chat chat about it?

17:21 Speaker 2: No, absolutely, no, We're glad to have you on now

17:25 Speaker 2: you are You're in the Sea Coast area, correct.

17:28 Speaker 15: Yes, Portsmouth is like my kind of home base it

17:31 Speaker 15: more more or less.

17:32 Speaker 3: Did you grow up there?

17:33 Speaker 15: No, I grew up in Western New York.

17:35 Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, what what brought you to New Hampshire

17:40 Speaker 2: Because you're in you know, obviously in the Portsmouth area,

17:43 Speaker 2: that's such a I mean, I think in terms of

17:46 Speaker 2: the music scene in the state, you know, like I'm

17:49 Speaker 2: in Manchester and obviously there's a lot of tremendous talent here,

17:51 Speaker 2: this tremendous talent all over the state, all over the

17:53 Speaker 2: world really, but but I feel like Portsmouth is kind

17:56 Speaker 2: of the most interesting in terms of and maybe this

18:00 Speaker 2: kind of informs your sound a little bit. Too, because

18:02 Speaker 2: I hear a lot of different influences in your sound.

18:04 Speaker 2: But but you're in You're in such a great spot

18:06 Speaker 2: if you're gonna be in New Hampshire and Reportsmouth is

18:08 Speaker 2: a great place to be if you're a musician. But

18:10 Speaker 2: how did you How did you land there from? You said,

18:12 Speaker 2: Western New York originally?

18:14 Speaker 16: Yeah, So I am a teacher and I teach French. Oh,

18:19 Speaker 16: and I went to go look for a job. It

18:22 Speaker 16: was harder to find French teaching positions in Western New York.

18:25 Speaker 16: And they had this program where you could click on

18:27 Speaker 16: any state you'd want to work at, and then town

18:31 Speaker 16: and you could send out your resume. So I ended

18:34 Speaker 16: up in southern Maine only because I had read an

18:38 Speaker 16: article about Acadia National Park and I thought New England

18:41 Speaker 16: was cool. I was in a musical called Carousel when

18:43 Speaker 16: I was a little girl, and it's all about New England.

18:47 Speaker 16: So I was like, I'll go there and try that,

18:50 Speaker 16: and it was the best thing I've ever done. So

18:52 Speaker 16: I ended up in Maine and I taught there for

18:54 Speaker 16: a couple of years and I put music on hold

18:56 Speaker 16: completely and then after you know, a bunch of other

19:01 Speaker 16: life life achievements, having a family and things like that.

19:05 Speaker 16: I came back to music, and I think the only reason,

19:07 Speaker 16: the only way I was able to do that is

19:09 Speaker 16: really because of the Portsmouth music scene and the new

19:12 Speaker 16: music scene as a whole. Everybody is so receptive and

19:16 Speaker 16: kind and willing to collaborate, and they're just honest. Nobody

19:21 Speaker 16: is gatekeeping any any sort of gate cirk or contacts.

19:26 Speaker 15: Everyone's oh, I'll help you get through that, like, oh,

19:28 Speaker 15: you want to play here?

19:28 Speaker 16: Like and now I feel like I'm established enough where

19:31 Speaker 16: I'm able to do that for some other people like, oh,

19:34 Speaker 16: you want to play there, here's their phone number, Like, sure,

19:36 Speaker 16: we can make that happen. It just feels such a

19:39 Speaker 16: great collaborative community. And I'm just everything New England. I

19:43 Speaker 16: should stop talking because once they start talking about so

19:46 Speaker 16: once I love the history and the aesthetic and the

19:49 Speaker 16: feel out here. It's just it's just the best place

19:51 Speaker 16: to be. I this will be my home for my

19:54 Speaker 16: forever home for sure.

19:55 Speaker 3: Outstanding. No, that's good to hear.

19:58 Speaker 2: You did mention so you had kind of taken a

19:59 Speaker 2: break from music right to focus on other things. You

20:02 Speaker 2: mentioned a family and of course your career as an

20:05 Speaker 2: educator and so forth. Did you always know that you

20:09 Speaker 2: were going to come back to it, like, was that

20:10 Speaker 2: always kind of the plan or at least maybe in

20:12 Speaker 2: the back of your mind, or did you at any

20:15 Speaker 2: point think, you know, no, I've left that behind and

20:19 Speaker 2: I'm onto this other phase or what was kind of

20:21 Speaker 2: your thought process during that time.

20:24 Speaker 16: I guess I know I was always going to be singing.

20:27 Speaker 16: I kind of was born singing and it's in my blood,

20:29 Speaker 16: so there's no stopping that. There's no stopping the songwriting.

20:33 Speaker 16: Sometimes I will flat out communicate with other people just

20:36 Speaker 16: and I'll sing them a little too, and amazing back

20:38 Speaker 16: to me. Yeah, big songs up about everything. So that

20:42 Speaker 16: was never going to stop. I knew that, and I

20:45 Speaker 16: always knew as mother I wanted to pass on that

20:47 Speaker 16: musical piece to my children and definitely attend the attending

20:52 Speaker 16: concerts and shows.

20:53 Speaker 15: That never stopped. That's always been really strong.

20:56 Speaker 16: Yeah, But I think what was hard for me was

20:58 Speaker 16: to think of a teare in kind of a public

21:01 Speaker 16: space also performing and can you do more than one thing?

21:04 Speaker 15: And is that okay to do?

21:06 Speaker 16: That's maybe what helped me held me back for a

21:09 Speaker 16: little bit, but it was it was the best thing

21:11 Speaker 16: to do because I spent several years just listening to music,

21:15 Speaker 16: watching other people perform really personal in private with my

21:19 Speaker 16: own music, and that felt that felt really right.

21:23 Speaker 15: I think a big change was.

21:26 Speaker 16: I lost my dad, and when after he passed away,

21:29 Speaker 16: it kind of realized, WHOA, this is it, Like, this

21:31 Speaker 16: is life and.

21:31 Speaker 15: If you want to do something, you got it. What

21:33 Speaker 15: am I doing? I gotta go do it if I

21:35 Speaker 15: want to get out there and do it.

21:37 Speaker 16: And so I slowly but surely tried a couple things,

21:41 Speaker 16: and like I said, everyone was so so receptive and

21:45 Speaker 16: it's just been a blast.

21:46 Speaker 15: I'm having the best time.

21:47 Speaker 2: This might be a little bit of a side street

21:49 Speaker 2: forgive me, but you mentioned losing your dad, and you

21:55 Speaker 2: said something that I kind of connected with because so

21:57 Speaker 2: I lost my father recently in December, and and but

22:02 Speaker 2: you know, you mentioned losing your dad and then feeling like,

22:05 Speaker 2: well you really got to, you know, you really got

22:07 Speaker 2: to push forward with this. And I'm just curious. I

22:09 Speaker 2: don't know how deep you want to go with this,

22:10 Speaker 2: but I'm just curious. Did you find that because I

22:14 Speaker 2: went through this thing, maybe I'm still going through it

22:16 Speaker 2: because it was relatively recent where it kind of losing

22:19 Speaker 2: a parent kind of uh forces you to confront your

22:22 Speaker 2: own mortality in a weird way, and then it kind

22:25 Speaker 2: of maybe is that part of what kind of pushed you,

22:28 Speaker 2: because it sounds like losing your dad kind of pushed

22:30 Speaker 2: you forward a little bit to really really do what

22:33 Speaker 2: you felt driven to do.

22:36 Speaker 15: For sure, I think we need to make the most nothing.

22:39 Speaker 15: Time goes by so quickly and there's so much that is.

22:43 Speaker 16: As much as we like to think we're in control

22:45 Speaker 16: and in the driver's seat, there's so many components where

22:47 Speaker 16: we really you don't know what's going to happen. So

22:49 Speaker 16: if there's a window of time when you can follow

22:52 Speaker 16: your passion and put it out there and share it

22:53 Speaker 16: with other people, I think that's great. I'll also say

22:56 Speaker 16: I wrote some songs about my dad and found a

22:58 Speaker 16: way of kind of my grief was through that outreach

23:01 Speaker 16: and sharing some of that music with other people. Actually

23:05 Speaker 16: did a whole event with a group called the Pre

23:07 Speaker 16: Dead Social Club, which and I'm so sorry about the

23:09 Speaker 16: passing of your dad might be connect with. But they

23:13 Speaker 16: bring people together all over the Sea Coast in New

23:17 Speaker 16: England and talk about you know, life and death and

23:21 Speaker 16: they help people get through those moments, and they actually

23:23 Speaker 16: had a concert in October and we got to come together.

23:28 Speaker 16: We each shared there were three different singer songwriters. We

23:32 Speaker 16: each shared songs about grief or things that we've been through,

23:35 Speaker 16: and then they assigned us somebody who had lost somebody

23:38 Speaker 16: and then we got to write a song for that

23:40 Speaker 16: person and present it. And it was just so powerful

23:42 Speaker 16: to put all of those feelings into into music.

23:46 Speaker 2: Now, that's that's excellent because something that a theme that

23:50 Speaker 2: comes up a lot on this program is you know,

23:53 Speaker 2: taking things that are negative, you know, like loss and

23:56 Speaker 2: you know, in this case, loss and grief and all

23:58 Speaker 2: of that and turning it into art. And then so

24:01 Speaker 2: you're taking something negative, you're creating something positive about it.

24:03 Speaker 2: And it's positive because not only does it help you

24:06 Speaker 2: when you create that art, not only is it you know,

24:08 Speaker 2: it's a great form of therapy, right to create something

24:11 Speaker 2: out of that, but also it helps other people who

24:14 Speaker 2: then connect with the art that you've created, other people

24:16 Speaker 2: who can relate to what you're going through. And I

24:20 Speaker 2: think that's outstanding. What is that called again, the pre dead?

24:23 Speaker 15: What pre Dead Social club?

24:25 Speaker 3: Pre Dead Social Club? I like that a lot.

24:28 Speaker 15: The first time I heard that name.

24:29 Speaker 9: I was like, what is this?

24:30 Speaker 15: I don't know what this is.

24:32 Speaker 16: And then I met Laura who runs who runs the organization,

24:36 Speaker 16: and she's just doing so much great work to bring

24:38 Speaker 16: people together. And because that was another thing. You know,

24:41 Speaker 16: you lose, you lose somebody that's so close to you,

24:44 Speaker 16: and then then what, like what do you do? People

24:46 Speaker 16: will bring over some cast roles and they say sorry, sorry,

24:48 Speaker 16: and it's sad and everyone's trying to help you. But

24:52 Speaker 16: it's just to have somebody that really gets the whole process.

24:57 Speaker 16: It was tremendous and instrumentous.

24:59 Speaker 3: Yeah, work absolutely.

25:01 Speaker 15: Funny what you said about connecting through themes.

25:04 Speaker 16: There's some songs that I write that people will see, oh,

25:07 Speaker 16: I love that song that you wrote about this, and

25:09 Speaker 16: I'm like, oh, that's like, thank you, it's not necessarily

25:14 Speaker 16: what I wrote it about.

25:16 Speaker 15: I have a lot of songs.

25:17 Speaker 16: My big theme on my album is kind of setting

25:19 Speaker 16: limits and and like moving on. Right, So there's there's

25:23 Speaker 16: that song that you just heard just sing enough, this

25:26 Speaker 16: is enough and I'm choosing to go a different path.

25:28 Speaker 16: But it's interesting people's take on what they hear and

25:32 Speaker 16: how they interpret each each song.

25:35 Speaker 2: Well, it's another thing too about art is you know,

25:38 Speaker 2: you can obviously, you can interpret it however you want to,

25:40 Speaker 2: and however it connects with you in this case, in

25:43 Speaker 2: the case of songs, obviously how it connects with you

25:45 Speaker 2: as a listener. But it is interesting how sometimes yeah,

25:48 Speaker 2: people will this is this will sound random, But I

25:52 Speaker 2: just said this to a friend of mine the other

25:54 Speaker 2: day that when I was a kid, I was actually

25:56 Speaker 2: mad at Sammy Hagar for saying that Love Walks In

25:59 Speaker 2: was about aliens, because I didn't want it to be

26:00 Speaker 2: about that. But but it's just but but it's always

26:05 Speaker 2: interesting to me too, when you know, I'll I'll have

26:09 Speaker 2: a certain song or something or an album that it

26:11 Speaker 2: connects with me in a certain way, and then you know,

26:13 Speaker 2: I read an interview, uh with the artists who wrote

26:16 Speaker 2: the song, and it turns out it's about something completely

26:19 Speaker 2: different than what I thought. And then there's that it's weird,

26:21 Speaker 2: you know, there's that little bit of oh, I kind

26:23 Speaker 2: of wanted it to be about what I wanted it

26:25 Speaker 2: to be about, but that's just narcissistic.

26:26 Speaker 16: But yeah, yeah, So there's some songs that I don't

26:30 Speaker 16: really share too much about what it is because sometimes

26:32 Speaker 16: it's much more literal than maybe what people.

26:37 Speaker 15: Assume.

26:37 Speaker 16: Yeah, some of it is pretty obvious, like there's yeah,

26:42 Speaker 16: but I like to see that takeaway. Everybody can get

26:45 Speaker 16: a piece of takeaway something different.

26:49 Speaker 3: Yeah.

26:49 Speaker 2: Absolutely, we should mention too. So you were the uh

26:53 Speaker 2: you won an award through the Sea Coast Community Choice Awards.

26:57 Speaker 3: Correct, I did.

26:58 Speaker 15: I did. I've got a strong support here of people.

27:03 Speaker 16: You devote every day for that one, and my my

27:08 Speaker 16: friends and family and coworkers definitely showed up for me

27:11 Speaker 16: and and that that was cool.

27:13 Speaker 15: Yeah. I was so nonchalant about it.

27:16 Speaker 16: I it was the words were it was on my

27:18 Speaker 16: son's birthday, so I was like, I was definitely going

27:20 Speaker 16: to miss my son's birthday. So I wrote to the people.

27:22 Speaker 16: I was like, oh yeah, thanks, and I sure was

27:24 Speaker 16: like that's not going to happen. And I had a

27:26 Speaker 16: friend that was was at the event and they're like.

27:29 Speaker 15: Oh, yeah, you did get it, so oh that's great. Cool.

27:32 Speaker 16: So it's published there right there with some of the

27:35 Speaker 16: best Seacoast businesses in town.

27:39 Speaker 3: Yeah, we should be specific too.

27:40 Speaker 2: It was the twenty twenty five Best Live Music Artist

27:44 Speaker 2: Group Band winner, so very good.

27:47 Speaker 3: Congratulations.

27:49 Speaker 16: Oh that it was that was very cool. For the

27:50 Speaker 16: amount of time that I've been performing here.

27:53 Speaker 15: That that was that was a neat one.

27:55 Speaker 3: So, yeah, how long have you been performing here? I

27:57 Speaker 3: forgot to ask you, uh kind of the timeline, how

28:00 Speaker 3: long have you been here doing this?

28:02 Speaker 16: I've been performing out I think since like it's it's

28:07 Speaker 16: been like.

28:10 Speaker 15: A year and a half.

28:11 Speaker 2: Oh not that long then, Okay, yeah, not that long.

28:16 Speaker 2: So that's that's well, that's excellent. Then, so you're off

28:18 Speaker 2: to uh, you're off to a great start.

28:21 Speaker 16: Yes, for sure, little projects easing up to it, but

28:26 Speaker 16: like really being out after the RPM thing, I was like,

28:28 Speaker 16: you know, I really want to share these songs that

28:30 Speaker 16: I'm writing. And I performed at a little cafe and

28:34 Speaker 16: in Portsmouth. It's no longer open at that location.

28:37 Speaker 15: That's fine.

28:39 Speaker 16: It was just so special and I got kind of

28:40 Speaker 16: hooked on it, and I realized, well, I can do

28:42 Speaker 16: this by myself. So then I did a whole series

28:44 Speaker 16: of performing independently, and then I really thought I need

28:48 Speaker 16: a band. I'd love to have that full band sound

28:51 Speaker 16: behind me. So I did a couple of band shows

28:53 Speaker 16: and now I'm doing solo band and then sometimes I'm

28:57 Speaker 16: performing as a duo, which is really really nice to

28:59 Speaker 16: carry the kind of the guitar load of each each piece.

29:03 Speaker 16: And it also I think anytime I have somebody performing

29:06 Speaker 16: with me, it gives the audience a break from my vocals,

29:09 Speaker 16: because I think it's a lot to hear somebody's kind

29:12 Speaker 16: of belting for two hours when they start booking for

29:15 Speaker 16: me for three hours plus.

29:17 Speaker 15: I definitely like to have somebody else with me.

29:21 Speaker 3: Yeah.

29:21 Speaker 2: Well it's nice too that you're able to do that

29:23 Speaker 2: in different configurations. When when you've got the full band,

29:28 Speaker 2: what what does that? What does that entail like?

29:31 Speaker 15: Is it?

29:32 Speaker 17: Is it?

29:32 Speaker 3: Yeah? Tell me about that.

29:34 Speaker 16: Yes, So I'm calling it Caitlin Piper And that's not

29:37 Speaker 16: because I'm into my own name or anything, but it's

29:42 Speaker 16: just it's steady for me. So I'm performing originals and

29:47 Speaker 16: covers in this band setting, and I kind of have

29:50 Speaker 16: a rotation or almost like a bench of performers that

29:53 Speaker 16: join me, and they are some they are the best

29:57 Speaker 16: performers in the Sea Coast and because of that, their

29:59 Speaker 16: schedule aren't always.

30:02 Speaker 15: But that's why there's there's like a whole little crew.

30:05 Speaker 3: Yeah.

30:07 Speaker 16: So you know, you think of the gig, you think

30:09 Speaker 16: of the setting, you think of the time and and

30:11 Speaker 16: all the different elements and think who would be the

30:13 Speaker 16: best combo for the first try, and you see if

30:15 Speaker 16: they can make it, and then if they can't, then

30:17 Speaker 16: you pivot. And I've I've had the opportunity to work

30:21 Speaker 16: with people that are just absolutely outstanding. So yeah, I'm

30:24 Speaker 16: very proud of that and totally honored that they're willing

30:27 Speaker 16: to take on my original original songs and songs they wrote,

30:31 Speaker 16: you know, in my room or something or after like

30:34 Speaker 16: a very small emotional moment, I write this song and

30:37 Speaker 16: now it's on it's on the stage in front of

30:39 Speaker 16: all these people.

30:39 Speaker 15: It's it's really cool.

30:41 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fantastic. I'm also curious about your influences because obviously,

30:45 Speaker 2: you know, you listen to a song like moving On,

30:47 Speaker 2: and I think I even said coming out of the

30:49 Speaker 2: song you can hear a mix of a mix of

30:52 Speaker 2: influences there. So I'm curious. I'm curious about what you

30:55 Speaker 2: listen to growing up and what kind of informs your

30:59 Speaker 2: your music in your your style today.

31:03 Speaker 16: Well, I would love to hear the influences that that

31:06 Speaker 16: you hear in that song. I'm always curious to see

31:09 Speaker 16: because trying to define a genre is really difficult, you know.

31:12 Speaker 16: You you communicate with different venues and they have to

31:15 Speaker 16: fill out all this information and to really find tune

31:19 Speaker 16: what I'm doing has been a little bit difficult. Somebody

31:21 Speaker 16: told me the other day, I think they're like, I

31:22 Speaker 16: think you're the only one kind of having this sound

31:24 Speaker 16: in our in our area, which was a huge compliment.

31:27 Speaker 15: But I'm calling it soul pop more or less, I.

31:30 Speaker 3: Think pop, So I think that's a good term, soul.

31:33 Speaker 16: Pop, yes, which puts me in the same realm as

31:37 Speaker 16: like and not to say I'm at the level of

31:40 Speaker 16: these people, but I'm in the same field as Lake

31:43 Speaker 16: Street Dive is a huge influence. Not everybody knows Lake

31:46 Speaker 16: Street Dive. So like Stevie Wonder, Amy Winehouse the soulful

31:52 Speaker 16: pop music, and I think what I apply to it

31:55 Speaker 16: that's a little bit different and makes it harder to define,

31:58 Speaker 16: is like really cool guitar parts. Yeah yeah, so that

32:02 Speaker 16: like that doesn't always fit with what those those other

32:05 Speaker 16: bands might be or groups might be doing. So growing up,

32:08 Speaker 16: I've listened to absolutely everything I've had. You know, my

32:11 Speaker 16: dad brought in the Beatles into my life, and my

32:14 Speaker 16: mom was a piano major in college and brought in

32:18 Speaker 16: all of this musical theater in classical music, just gorgeous,

32:22 Speaker 16: gorgeous music. And once I could get a cassette tape

32:27 Speaker 16: and aging myself here, CD player, I'll go with. I

32:33 Speaker 16: just listen to music NonStop. And I got a karaoke

32:36 Speaker 16: machine when I was really little, and I'm like, my

32:39 Speaker 16: mom got me like Sinatra.

32:40 Speaker 15: So I was like third grade making my own radio show.

32:43 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I would not the.

32:44 Speaker 16: Words down to the songs, or I would take like

32:46 Speaker 16: the backing checks and change the melodies and record it

32:49 Speaker 16: and then listen.

32:49 Speaker 15: To it back. Oh wow, I think that was a huge,

32:53 Speaker 15: a huge part. But yeah, I serious.

32:54 Speaker 16: I know everybody says they're eclectic and they listen to everything,

32:57 Speaker 16: but jazz is a huge part of what I listened to.

33:01 Speaker 16: El Fitzgerald's my favorite, my all time favorite vocalist, and

33:07 Speaker 16: so I spend.

33:07 Speaker 15: A lot of time listening to.

33:10 Speaker 16: Jazz and a lot of musicals, which I know is

33:13 Speaker 16: could be perceived as nerdy, but I don't care. I'm

33:16 Speaker 16: proud of I'm proud of that and that the harmony's

33:20 Speaker 16: piece really comes through through that. And then I just

33:22 Speaker 16: see like music of the times. I was in market

33:25 Speaker 16: yesterday and they were playing an in sync song and

33:29 Speaker 16: some of the harmonies. I was like, Oh my goodness,

33:31 Speaker 16: is this where I'm getting what I'm trying to do

33:34 Speaker 16: on my music?

33:35 Speaker 15: Like, is this is this my aim?

33:37 Speaker 16: Is this maybe where it's seeped in from. So truly

33:40 Speaker 16: a little bit of a little bit of everything. But

33:42 Speaker 16: Lake Street Dive is a big, big band that I love.

33:46 Speaker 16: Couch is another band that.

33:49 Speaker 15: I listened to. So I'm getting a little bit obscure.

33:51 Speaker 2: But do you know, do you know Cosmic Blossom they're

33:54 Speaker 2: from the area, I don't know. They kind of remind

33:59 Speaker 2: me a little bit of them. They've they've got kind

34:00 Speaker 2: of that vibe. I mean, you know, they're I mean,

34:02 Speaker 2: they're pretty eclectic themselves. But you know, if you listen

34:04 Speaker 2: to one Cosmic Blossom song, it's not going to sound

34:06 Speaker 2: like like the next one necessarily, But but it kind

34:09 Speaker 2: of kind of reminded me of that a little bit too.

34:11 Speaker 2: But I think that I think that you know what

34:13 Speaker 2: you're doing because it mixes different things. I would imagine

34:18 Speaker 2: that it kind of really you know, you mentioned the

34:22 Speaker 2: challenge of trying to kind of pigeonhole it well, while

34:24 Speaker 2: you're explaining to someone what you sound like if they

34:26 Speaker 2: haven't heard you yet, but but I would imagine it.

34:29 Speaker 2: It does kind of open you up, though, to being

34:31 Speaker 2: able to play a lot of different kinds of venues,

34:33 Speaker 2: especially where you can do it in different configurations. I

34:37 Speaker 2: was looking at, Uh, where's that list You've You've played

34:41 Speaker 2: some interesting places like the like the Strawberry Bank Museum

34:46 Speaker 2: for example. I mean that you know, that's that's that's

34:49 Speaker 2: pretty cool. I remember going there when I was a kid,

34:51 Speaker 2: to the Strawberry Bank Museum.

34:53 Speaker 3: Yeah, I did a.

34:54 Speaker 15: Big run of their shows.

34:56 Speaker 16: Of their shows, I did like some Christmas songs for

34:58 Speaker 16: them at some holiday music for their candle Light Stroll.

35:01 Speaker 15: And then they have an event called Tuesdays on the Terrace.

35:05 Speaker 15: So last summer we got to perform.

35:07 Speaker 16: In front of all of these historic homes and everyone

35:09 Speaker 16: comes and they sit in their chairs out in this field,

35:11 Speaker 16: and it was great.

35:13 Speaker 15: I absolutely love Strawberry Bank.

35:14 Speaker 16: I love Strawberry Bank so much that somehow, when I

35:16 Speaker 16: won that award that we were talking about, they had

35:19 Speaker 16: to listen address, and I don't know how that was

35:21 Speaker 16: my address, but I am.

35:22 Speaker 15: Listed as that's where I live. Yeah, so it's it's

35:27 Speaker 15: my home base.

35:27 Speaker 16: But I will be back at Strawberry Bank with a

35:29 Speaker 16: full band August fourth for their Tuesdays on the Terrorists series,

35:32 Speaker 16: which will be really fun. But yeah, the different genres

35:36 Speaker 16: of not having something totally claimed has been interesting. I

35:40 Speaker 16: was able to fill in with the Stray Horses for

35:44 Speaker 16: their last Waltz concert last November, and I sang Joni

35:47 Speaker 16: Mitchell songs. I was at the press room in August

35:51 Speaker 16: with a full band opening for Maggie Baugh, who was

35:54 Speaker 16: Keith Urban's lead guitarist. Okay, so I was kind of

35:58 Speaker 16: like a country esque peace and I can lean that

36:01 Speaker 16: way for sure. It's it kind of just is what

36:05 Speaker 16: I'm in the mood for, I guess.

36:09 Speaker 15: But it's been cool. Yeah.

36:10 Speaker 16: I think because I like so many different types of music,

36:12 Speaker 16: it's been I've been able to bounce around nicely and

36:16 Speaker 16: it doesn't feel totally.

36:19 Speaker 15: Foreign or or out of sorts.

36:21 Speaker 14: Yeah.

36:21 Speaker 2: I also think too, and again kind of circling back

36:24 Speaker 2: to where you are, you know, that that area I

36:27 Speaker 2: think I think really lends itself to to that kind

36:30 Speaker 2: of flexibility. I also just excuse me just to circle

36:37 Speaker 2: back to to you know, because you are an educator.

36:39 Speaker 2: I mean, does that do you feel that the teaching

36:42 Speaker 2: in any way influences or or informs your songwriting or

36:48 Speaker 2: performing or I mean, is there any any anything in

36:51 Speaker 2: there that sort of crosses over in terms of being

36:53 Speaker 2: a teacher.

36:57 Speaker 15: And I feel like every time I've interviewed this is

36:59 Speaker 15: all do it.

37:00 Speaker 16: I'm not trying to stuck up by any means, but

37:02 Speaker 16: I have the most principle at my school, and she's

37:07 Speaker 16: part of the reason why I'm out playing again because

37:09 Speaker 16: she really said, like, you know, if this is something

37:11 Speaker 16: you love, do it, and just had me bring it

37:14 Speaker 16: into the school with the kids. I wrote a school

37:18 Speaker 16: kind of theme song that we do every fall, and

37:20 Speaker 16: we have a school band called the Riptide Rhythms. We

37:24 Speaker 16: were under Hampshire Chronicle, which is fun. So our superintendent

37:29 Speaker 16: and our assistant superintendent, we're all in this band and

37:31 Speaker 16: we perform for the kids sometimes. But that's just a

37:35 Speaker 16: nice piece. So I feel really comfortable combining both. I

37:38 Speaker 16: do a lot of singing with my students, for sure,

37:40 Speaker 16: But something that my principal does with us before a

37:43 Speaker 16: meeting is she goes over these social norms of how

37:46 Speaker 16: we need to go into the mindset we should have

37:49 Speaker 16: before we interact. And she talks about assuming positive intent

37:54 Speaker 16: and that's really been life changing. And so I have

37:56 Speaker 16: a song that I just flat out say, like, I'm

37:59 Speaker 16: going to assume positive intent from you. So already coming

38:02 Speaker 16: into something, I know everyone's doing the best they can.

38:06 Speaker 16: Nothing's edgy, It's all going to feel good. So yeah,

38:09 Speaker 16: I think I think those especially because right now I'm

38:11 Speaker 16: teaching elementary school, those kind of feel good themes come

38:16 Speaker 16: can come through quite a bit, and big social themes too.

38:19 Speaker 16: You know, when you see something happening in your adult life.

38:22 Speaker 16: Just I don't know, it's like a whole wave of.

38:25 Speaker 15: Kind of the times.

38:26 Speaker 3: Sure, sure, absolutely absolutely, So what tell us again? So

38:32 Speaker 3: the album?

38:33 Speaker 2: The album's out June twenty twenty six. How many how

38:36 Speaker 2: many tracks are on it?

38:38 Speaker 15: That's the question, Matt.

38:39 Speaker 3: That's oh so this is still a work in progress.

38:43 Speaker 15: I well, there's where's one song?

38:45 Speaker 16: I'm like, do I am? I'm either going to put

38:49 Speaker 16: it on.

38:49 Speaker 15: I'm there's one song that's on it might be cut,

38:53 Speaker 15: I don't know. Oh okay, I'm thinking I'm thinking ten.

38:56 Speaker 16: Songs and maybe I should just make it ten and

38:58 Speaker 16: not do the eleventh one going back to earth about

39:01 Speaker 16: this song. It's all done, It's it's all I just

39:05 Speaker 16: don't know if that's another thing I'm battling with the

39:07 Speaker 16: genre piece, like does it all fit together and is

39:12 Speaker 16: this a cohesive model of what's happening or do I

39:16 Speaker 16: just go with like a genre and push that out.

39:19 Speaker 16: I think what's going to end up happening is I'm

39:21 Speaker 16: just going to release this and then maybe here I go,

39:24 Speaker 16: I'm going to start committing to things. I think next

39:28 Speaker 16: year I would do like a jazz acoustic guitar focus

39:34 Speaker 16: kind of mellow album. I mean, yeah, okay, the whole

39:40 Speaker 16: songs like that that I don't think will fit on

39:43 Speaker 16: on this as much because you could hear from that

39:45 Speaker 16: last song, like Ian's guitar, Ian Sleeper's playing the guitar,

39:49 Speaker 16: and that he did so much for that song and

39:51 Speaker 16: he's just it's really cool.

39:53 Speaker 15: It's it's borderline like rock.

39:55 Speaker 18: Right.

39:56 Speaker 3: Oh, it's really good.

39:57 Speaker 13: Yeah.

39:57 Speaker 3: I really like that solo a lot.

39:59 Speaker 16: Yeah, he's awesome, and he's on a bunch of different

40:03 Speaker 16: tracks and such a dream to work with, just so easy,

40:07 Speaker 16: easy going in kind. So yeah, I'm thinking everything will

40:11 Speaker 16: kind of be that same in that same mood of

40:13 Speaker 16: that song.

40:14 Speaker 15: But we'll see. I have to make my decision, I

40:18 Speaker 15: think this week.

40:18 Speaker 3: So I always feel like everybody out there.

40:22 Speaker 15: Wants to reach out and be listening heres. Let me know.

40:26 Speaker 2: I always feel like, if you're gonna do that, if

40:28 Speaker 2: you have something that doesn't necessarily fit the vibe of

40:30 Speaker 2: the rest of the album, put it at the end

40:32 Speaker 2: because because yeah, I'm trying to think of another example

40:38 Speaker 2: and nothing's coming to me. But I feel like I

40:41 Speaker 2: feel like that's kind of how it goes. Like if

40:43 Speaker 2: you I wish I could think of a specific example,

40:46 Speaker 2: but I'm drying a blank. But if you have something

40:48 Speaker 2: that's kind of a surprise, you know, it's got to

40:51 Speaker 2: go at the end of the album. If you put

40:52 Speaker 2: it anywhere else, it's going to be weird. And you

40:54 Speaker 2: certainly don't want to put it at the beginning because

40:56 Speaker 2: it's then it sets you up for wait, what was that?

40:59 Speaker 2: But if you put it, but if you put it

41:00 Speaker 2: at the end, it's almost then it almost becomes sort

41:02 Speaker 2: of like by default, like a bonus track.

41:06 Speaker 3: I don't like that.

41:07 Speaker 16: Yeah, somebody was saying, you know, you could always do

41:09 Speaker 16: it as a single, but the song is about it.

41:11 Speaker 16: It turns out the song is really truly pop pop country,

41:15 Speaker 16: which is not the rest of the album. But it's

41:18 Speaker 16: a song about kind of coming back into your own

41:20 Speaker 16: and it's a song I wrote about coming into coming

41:22 Speaker 16: back to music. And so I think that's a beautiful

41:25 Speaker 16: thing to put on your first album of just saying

41:26 Speaker 16: like here I am, I'm back and thank you.

41:28 Speaker 15: It's a kind of a thank you song to the

41:30 Speaker 15: sea ghost. Yeah, about just being.

41:33 Speaker 16: Out there again and I'm not afraid and I'm just

41:35 Speaker 16: going to do it. So that might be a really

41:37 Speaker 16: nice way to end the album. Or if anyone listens

41:40 Speaker 16: that far, they might say, huh, that's different, or you know,

41:44 Speaker 16: I don't know, put it all out there.

41:46 Speaker 15: Oops.

41:46 Speaker 3: Sorry, Oh that's okay, Well, very good, very good. Oh

41:50 Speaker 3: where do you record?

41:51 Speaker 2: By the way, because I always like to give you know,

41:53 Speaker 2: I don't know if you go to a studio or

41:55 Speaker 2: whatever you do, but in so many different ways to

41:56 Speaker 2: record now, but I always like to make sure that

41:59 Speaker 2: there's a lot of great recording studios out there, so

42:01 Speaker 2: I want to make sure we give everybody their shine.

42:03 Speaker 3: And the that song sounds fantastic. Moving on, Yeah, where

42:08 Speaker 3: do you record?

42:10 Speaker 16: That song was recorded in a bunch of different places,

42:16 Speaker 16: so that that was kind of a mash up situation.

42:20 Speaker 15: But Duncan Watt did the mixing and.

42:27 Speaker 16: He was very very patient with me, so I work

42:31 Speaker 16: with him sometimes and I went to his to do that,

42:34 Speaker 16: and uh, the Electric Cave in Portsmouth is another location

42:40 Speaker 16: that I've been recording at.

42:43 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, okay, outstanding.

42:45 Speaker 16: It's more on the people unless the that's the location,

42:48 Speaker 16: I guess, but I should I should know I should

42:50 Speaker 16: be more.

42:52 Speaker 18: On it.

42:53 Speaker 2: No, No, but it's it's good to you know, it's

42:55 Speaker 2: good to mention the people who are doing this because,

42:57 Speaker 2: like I said, yes, yeah, moveing.

43:00 Speaker 15: On, has Ian Sleeper on guitar.

43:03 Speaker 16: Joe Harding is playing the bass, Okay, and he's in

43:06 Speaker 16: He's in so many great they both are there. They're phenomenal.

43:10 Speaker 16: And then I had Duncan Watt do all of the

43:14 Speaker 16: mixing and editing to that.

43:16 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, outstanding in a moment. So we're gonna we're

43:21 Speaker 2: gonna wrap up in just a couple of minutes, Caitlin,

43:23 Speaker 2: But I do want to end the segment with another

43:25 Speaker 2: one of your songs. I really like this song, Speechless.

43:29 Speaker 2: Is this going to be on the album as well,

43:31 Speaker 2: or is this strictly a single?

43:33 Speaker 15: It is going to be on the album. And that

43:37 Speaker 15: one is one too word almost it's getting out of

43:40 Speaker 15: the genre of piece.

43:42 Speaker 3: But yeah, that song is.

43:46 Speaker 15: I was listening some of my friend was like, oh,

43:48 Speaker 15: this is so good and putting this on again, like

43:50 Speaker 15: I was like, okay.

43:51 Speaker 16: The other day kind of brought it back up and

43:54 Speaker 16: it's it's definitely a song that's that's grown on me.

43:56 Speaker 15: Yeah, guy Capa Silatro, which I really hope I'm seeing his.

44:00 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I know him, his last name.

44:04 Speaker 16: He's gonna He's the one I'm doing the RPM acapella.

44:08 Speaker 15: Song with right now.

44:10 Speaker 16: Capaslat my western New York accent just takes everything that's

44:15 Speaker 16: beautiful in the English language and and really.

44:17 Speaker 15: Tears it up.

44:18 Speaker 11: Well.

44:18 Speaker 3: The other thing. The other thing too, is that's a

44:19 Speaker 3: lot of syllables in one name, to be fair.

44:24 Speaker 15: The third he.

44:26 Speaker 16: Took this song and he added in the cool guitar

44:29 Speaker 16: part in the beginning, which I really like. My friend

44:32 Speaker 16: Bill Dirling is on the keys, Joe Harding is doing

44:37 Speaker 16: the bass, and I hope I've named everybody that's that's

44:42 Speaker 16: on that song. But it's it's a neat one. And

44:47 Speaker 16: then oh, yes, no, I have to tell you about

44:49 Speaker 16: this person. Tony Inland did the drums and he did

44:54 Speaker 16: all of the mixing for the song too. And Tony

44:57 Speaker 16: works at the he's the manager at the drum center

45:01 Speaker 16: in it's either Hampton or Northampton, you know, the biggest

45:05 Speaker 16: drum store.

45:08 Speaker 7: Yeah.

45:09 Speaker 15: We recorded.

45:13 Speaker 16: The drums for that song on a drum kit that

45:17 Speaker 16: may possibly have been used with.

45:22 Speaker 15: Michael Jackson recording.

45:23 Speaker 3: Okay, oh interesting, interesting by.

45:27 Speaker 15: And the name escapes me. Uh Jay, the drummer is

45:33 Speaker 15: j R.

45:35 Speaker 3: I don't I don't have it either.

45:37 Speaker 16: That's okay, this would be if I was in person,

45:40 Speaker 16: I would have my John j R. Robinson or Michael

45:45 Speaker 16: Jackson and Stevie Wonder and and so Tony had the

45:48 Speaker 16: drum kit from his work. Oh cool, Yeah, that's in

45:54 Speaker 16: the scenes.

45:55 Speaker 15: Fact about about.
