4:35 Speaker 10: to talk about today, lot lots of lots of good stuff.

4:38 Speaker 3: My associates, Yes, yes, I will. To my right is

4:41 Speaker 3: my partner in life, Aaron Durman. He's also my musical partner.

4:44 Speaker 3: He performs with me in Darling Hill.

4:47 Speaker 10: Hello, Aeron, welcome to the show. Hello.

4:49 Speaker 3: And then I have on my left Nicholas Chico. He's

4:54 Speaker 3: been like my I call my rider die right left

4:57 Speaker 3: hand man. I guess okay, for the past ten years

4:59 Speaker 3: he kind of helped me grow our music community, has

5:02 Speaker 3: done a lot of sound support, oh, very cool, and

5:05 Speaker 3: lighting support and probably a lot of unbuild therapy.

5:13 Speaker 1: Yeah.

5:13 Speaker 3: And so they both also work in audio. So Aaron

5:16 Speaker 3: works for Earthworks Audio, it's really, you know, pretty popular

5:20 Speaker 3: high definition microphone company. And Nick, if you don't mind

5:23 Speaker 3: me saying, works for Upstream Sound, which provides a lot

5:26 Speaker 3: of light and sound support for venues and festivals up

5:29 Speaker 3: and down the East Coast.

5:31 Speaker 10: Oh, very cool, very cool. And so now why have

5:34 Speaker 10: you brought Let's get right to the really exciting part.

5:37 Speaker 10: Why have you brought everyone. Why why have you brought

5:40 Speaker 10: all these people here with you today?

5:41 Speaker 3: Well, I kind of want to shed a light on

5:43 Speaker 3: the people behind the scenes of music. I think that

5:47 Speaker 3: you know, I'm a musician and we started our own

5:50 Speaker 3: music community in our backyard. Aaron and I live on

5:52 Speaker 3: a land trust. It's about one hundred acres of nature

5:55 Speaker 3: that we live on, and we built a small stage

5:58 Speaker 3: about ten years ago. And I would literally go into

6:00 Speaker 3: every bar and meet local musicians and kind of ride

6:03 Speaker 3: on the coattails of my husband's job and just say,

6:05 Speaker 3: you know, my husband works for Earthworks. You have some

6:07 Speaker 3: great gear to play with at home. Would you like

6:09 Speaker 3: to come play with us and we'll put you on

6:11 Speaker 3: our stage and host you at house concerts, your recording sessions.

6:14 Speaker 10: Yeah.

6:15 Speaker 3: So we've been doing that for about eight years. But

6:18 Speaker 3: you know, a lot of things have changed over the years,

6:20 Speaker 3: and here we are now in twenty twenty five, and

6:22 Speaker 3: I've got an art studio on Welton and it's fairly small,

6:25 Speaker 3: but I kind of want to work with a room

6:28 Speaker 3: that's small and intimate and really give musicians an opportunity

6:33 Speaker 3: to share their original music in a setting that's not

6:35 Speaker 3: bombarded with like a bar scene or too much alcohol

6:39 Speaker 3: or a house party that's too loud, like like a

6:42 Speaker 3: nice back and forth between the audience and the musician

6:44 Speaker 3: to share, you know, their music in a way that's

6:48 Speaker 3: more conducive to like a grassroots vibe. You know, you

6:51 Speaker 3: can support the artists directly, you can buy their merch.

6:53 Speaker 3: You know, we don't really take a cut. So in

6:55 Speaker 3: order to do that, I need a lot of support.

6:57 Speaker 3: I need sound support. I need you know, a lot

7:00 Speaker 3: of the managing of it and the networking. But when

7:02 Speaker 3: it comes down to the day of Nick's very good

7:05 Speaker 3: at implementing the gear. Aaron understands it given his background. So, yeah,

7:10 Speaker 3: this is our first time being indoors. We've been doing

7:12 Speaker 3: it outdoors, oh okay, out of our backyard for like

7:16 Speaker 3: I said, eight years. We've had as little as like

7:18 Speaker 3: twenty people show up, and we've had as much as

7:20 Speaker 3: like one hundred and fifty to two hundred and one day.

7:22 Speaker 3: I think the most we ever hosted was eighteen bands

7:25 Speaker 3: in one day.

7:25 Speaker 10: No kidding. Yeah, that's that's a that's a long yeah event.

7:30 Speaker 3: We did it though, and some of the bands I

7:32 Speaker 3: see here on your show. So yeah, I'm excited to

7:35 Speaker 3: announce our spring lineup in our listening room. It's only

7:38 Speaker 3: twenty seats, so I only have to manage Oh wow, yeah,

7:40 Speaker 3: I only have to manage twenty people. Where before it

7:43 Speaker 3: was like I just had like this huge landscape of

7:46 Speaker 3: you know, Rando people just showing up right now, this

7:49 Speaker 3: is a little more condensed.

7:52 Speaker 9: You know.

7:52 Speaker 10: So it sounds like a perfect scenario for if say

7:56 Speaker 10: someone is releasing an album and they just want to

8:01 Speaker 10: you know, they want to do something where you know,

8:03 Speaker 10: I mean, you can do people have these release parties.

8:06 Speaker 10: People have been doing that forever these you know, but

8:08 Speaker 10: if you have like a CD release party at a

8:10 Speaker 10: bar or something, you know, then you run into that

8:12 Speaker 10: thing where a lot of the people who are there

8:14 Speaker 10: they aren't there for the release party. They're there to drink,

8:17 Speaker 10: and you know, you're kind of the background music. But

8:19 Speaker 10: but this sounds like it's perfect for people who really

8:22 Speaker 10: very intently want to listen to They're there specifically for that,

8:28 Speaker 10: for that purpose. It reminds me of years ago. You know,

8:32 Speaker 10: I worked for for a long time, I worked for

8:34 Speaker 10: well it became Fye, but it used to be do

8:36 Speaker 10: you all remember Strawberries? Yeah? And uh, I worked for them,

8:40 Speaker 10: and we would do these, you know, sometimes they would,

8:44 Speaker 10: like the store managers would go to Boston for a

8:47 Speaker 10: release party for an up and coming artists who we

8:49 Speaker 10: were going to be carrying their music in our stores

8:51 Speaker 10: and so, and it was very much you know, there

8:54 Speaker 10: would be alcohol there and whatnot, but it was very

8:56 Speaker 10: much you know, you're not there to drink, You're there specifically,

9:01 Speaker 10: and of course you know, people were watching us too

9:03 Speaker 10: because it was a company thing, but we were there

9:05 Speaker 10: specifically to pay attention to the music and this artist

9:08 Speaker 10: and learn about them and the album that was coming

9:12 Speaker 10: out that we were going to be selling. And it

9:14 Speaker 10: was very focused on that. But was this always kind

9:18 Speaker 10: of the goal, like when you started doing these, you know,

9:21 Speaker 10: because I think the first time that you were on

9:23 Speaker 10: the show you had talked about that how these were

9:26 Speaker 10: outdoor events. Yes, was it always the goal to do

9:29 Speaker 10: something inside?

9:30 Speaker 3: It was always I'd get frustrated with the New England weather. Yes,

9:36 Speaker 3: And I don't pay a guarantee, so I'm very transparent

9:39 Speaker 3: about that. I don't do all this because we love

9:41 Speaker 3: to do it, but we also don't have a lot

9:43 Speaker 3: of money to pay people. So there's this reciprocity, this

9:45 Speaker 3: understanding that if they want as bad as I do,

9:47 Speaker 3: you got to promote together and all that. But the

9:49 Speaker 3: second the weather message things up, it's like having it

9:53 Speaker 3: start that all over again is really frustrating, And yeah,

9:55 Speaker 3: I am. I stopped doing it on my home for

9:57 Speaker 3: personal reasons. I was getting tired of open my sanctuary

10:01 Speaker 3: so to speak to so many people doing it for

10:03 Speaker 3: so long, and I was like, man, I really want

10:05 Speaker 3: a smaller space or a space that has a roof

10:07 Speaker 3: on it. So I looked at my studio one day.

10:09 Speaker 3: I mean, we've had this art studio probably as long

10:12 Speaker 3: as we've been doing it. Was called hippie hollow That's

10:14 Speaker 3: what it was called. Is hippie hollow house concerts, Okay.

10:17 Speaker 3: And he'd whip out his microphones and we record people live.

10:21 Speaker 3: And I just started noticing, instead of like being a

10:23 Speaker 3: recording studio, I should just be hosting house concerts, right,

10:26 Speaker 3: just more nurturing more opportunity there, and let's work.

10:29 Speaker 10: For me, right.

10:32 Speaker 3: So yeah, doing it in the studio, I just had

10:34 Speaker 3: this epiphany. I'm like, screw it. I don't care if

10:36 Speaker 3: it's not big enough. It's got a roof on it.

10:38 Speaker 3: So I rearranged the entire storefront to accommodate twenty chairs.

10:42 Speaker 3: I said, if I can get twenty chairs, and I mean,

10:44 Speaker 3: we can have a donation of ten dollars or a

10:46 Speaker 3: donation of forty dollars depending on the artists.

10:49 Speaker 10: Yeah, oh okay, very cool. Yeah now is this now?

10:52 Speaker 10: What's what's Tyler's involvements?

10:55 Speaker 3: Tyler? Well, so winter was coming and it was really

10:58 Speaker 3: jonesing for doing show. I was like, I know, I

11:01 Speaker 3: can only do this at my home because you got

11:02 Speaker 3: to walk down a trail just to get to my house.

11:04 Speaker 10: Yeah.

11:05 Speaker 3: So I was shooting the crap with Tyler and I

11:09 Speaker 3: was like, yo, I need somebody that can trust that

11:11 Speaker 3: I'm going to put in enough work to make this happen.

11:13 Speaker 3: And he's been a great collaborator with me in the

11:15 Speaker 3: past ext so you know, I loved the band he

11:18 Speaker 3: was in, the White Mountain Rounders. That's a great uplifting

11:20 Speaker 3: vibe in the middle of the winter. So yeah, him

11:23 Speaker 3: and his boys got together and gave me a chance,

11:25 Speaker 3: and even though the weather worked against us, I still

11:27 Speaker 3: think it was a great turnout.

11:29 Speaker 10: Excellent.

11:29 Speaker 3: So he's coming back next week to do his solo.

11:33 Speaker 10: Oh excellent. When when is that? Next week?

11:35 Speaker 3: Was February sixteenth.

11:36 Speaker 10: February sixteenth, very good, very good? Actually, is that how

11:41 Speaker 10: we met? Is that how we connected with you? Tyler

11:43 Speaker 10: was through Kate originally.

11:44 Speaker 1: I think so, I think so.

11:46 Speaker 3: Yeah, I sent a couple of people here, so you did.

11:48 Speaker 9: Yeah.

11:48 Speaker 3: I sent my cousin Tommy here, I sent Paula.

11:50 Speaker 10: Oh right, tom Russo. Yeah, yeah, he's been on a

11:53 Speaker 9: Yeah.

11:55 Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't get rid of us.

20:00 Speaker 3: suitcase since like the nineties and he's always used it

20:03 Speaker 3: to carry his merch. And when it showed up, it

20:05 Speaker 3: was locked and he didn't know the code. Oh so

20:08 Speaker 3: Aaron got the drill and that's why I keep him around.

21:58 Speaker 3: So I'm excited about that. I guy the summer. I'm

22:01 Speaker 3: working on the summer, fall winter. I was absolutely shocked.

22:04 Speaker 3: Every day I wake up to messages in my email

22:06 Speaker 3: asking me about availability. Yeah, since I've announced this not

22:10 Speaker 3: even a month ago.

22:11 Speaker 10: So Megan knows Eyes of Age. Ye, she said in

22:14 Speaker 10: the chat room, Love Love Love Eyes of Age. I'll

22:16 Speaker 10: have to check them out.

22:17 Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, so they're coming in okay, yep.

22:21 Speaker 10: And by the way, Miriam said, I continued humming that

22:23 Speaker 10: last song after it ended. I think that's a good thing.

22:25 Speaker 12: So there you go, right, it gets into your brain.

22:28 Speaker 12: It's a great yeah.

22:29 Speaker 10: Yeah.

22:29 Speaker 12: And actually Kat will be with us next week.

22:32 Speaker 10: Next week, okay, I thought, So, yeah.

22:34 Speaker 3: She'll be She'll be coming to me. And what I say, April,

22:38 Speaker 3: I can't remember, is in the spring.

22:39 Speaker 10: Yeah, in the spring.

22:40 Speaker 12: That's a good problem.

22:41 Speaker 3: Though I'm making it. I'm in the middle of making

22:43 Speaker 3: the flyer. So I did want to give a shout

22:44 Speaker 3: out to one more person, my girl Victoria from I

22:47 Speaker 3: Have Ethereal. She own's a tattoo shop in Nashua, but

22:49 Speaker 3: she's taken the time to do some pro bonographic design

22:54 Speaker 3: for our listening room. So oh, you're going to see

22:56 Speaker 3: more of our little skeleton walking around in musical landscape

23:00 Speaker 3: as we continue our social media campaign.

23:03 Speaker 7: Oh very cool.

23:04 Speaker 1: Victoria did my logo and cover art as well.

23:08 Speaker 3: So she's kind of branching out from the ink and

23:10 Speaker 3: skin and doing things with musicians.

23:12 Speaker 10: Yeah, no, that's cool.

23:13 Speaker 3: I have Ethereal. I have Ethereal in Nashua.

23:16 Speaker 10: Okay, Now I'm curious about the I was curious about

23:19 Speaker 10: that too, the logo, Like why the skeleton because I

23:22 Speaker 10: see the skeleton like I think like death metal or something.

23:26 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we will.

23:27 Speaker 10: I didn't really think that. I'm kidding, but I am curious.

23:30 Speaker 3: I think I did with the nature concept like this,

23:32 Speaker 3: and we're both creepy girls, like creep like I got

23:34 Speaker 3: a skull on my arm right like. So she's like,

23:36 Speaker 3: how about you know, we just came up with all

23:38 Speaker 3: these ideas and for some reason we call them Scully

23:40 Speaker 3: and and now we have all these different ideas as

23:42 Speaker 3: to how we're going to promote each musician with this

23:44 Speaker 3: little skull characters. Yeah, he's always going to be a

23:47 Speaker 3: nature as well.

23:48 Speaker 10: Oh okay, okay, that makes sense.

23:49 Speaker 3: Because it's my studio is called Prayers of Nature. Okay,

23:52 Speaker 3: listening room at Prayers of Nature is like really long winded,

23:55 Speaker 3: so we just called the listening room.

23:56 Speaker 10: Okay, but the official name is the Listening room at

23:59 Speaker 10: Prayers of nature. Correct, now, why prayers of nature? What's

24:01 Speaker 10: the origin of that.

24:02 Speaker 3: Aaron's mother was an artist. She made flower mendalas, beautiful

24:05 Speaker 3: flower mendalas. And so our studio when you walk in

24:08 Speaker 3: it is unlike anything else you've probably seen. It's got chandeliers,

24:12 Speaker 3: we got hanging from like a big mill building, okay,

24:14 Speaker 3: and then we got like plants and flower mendalas everywhere.

24:18 Speaker 10: And what is I don't know what a mandala.

24:21 Speaker 3: It's like a Buddhist image. You've probably seen it, you

24:23 Speaker 3: just didn't know. You've seen the circular image. And it's

24:26 Speaker 3: usually made with like sand and seeds and things like that.

24:29 Speaker 3: But his mother made him with flowers, okay, and she

24:31 Speaker 3: made over one hundred and twenty five of them.

24:33 Speaker 10: Oh so cool.

24:34 Speaker 3: We have a lot of them in our studio. Yeah,

24:36 Speaker 3: we've had them in some galleries and stuff. So Aaron

24:38 Speaker 3: also is a jeweler. When he's not making microphones for earthworks,

24:41 Speaker 3: he's making jewelry. It's all inspired by nature. They have

24:43 Speaker 3: a lot of nature themes in our shop, Crystals, all

24:46 Speaker 3: sorts of things like that. Flowers, flowers are the parts. Yes,

24:52 Speaker 3: and I actually think our musical experience are similar to

24:55 Speaker 3: a mendala. So when you create a mindala, it's about

24:58 Speaker 3: the experience of making it necess ssarily about what the

25:00 Speaker 3: outcome looks like. And then when you're done with the mendali,

25:03 Speaker 3: you're supposed to destroy it to release yourself from attachments.

25:06 Speaker 3: Oh so, whenever we set up for a show, whenever

25:08 Speaker 3: Nick sitting up the lighting gear, the sound gear and

25:10 Speaker 3: like we're getting the chairs, all said, I know that

25:13 Speaker 3: this isn't going to stay this way. People are gonna

25:15 Speaker 3: show up and they're going to experience the music, and

25:16 Speaker 3: then they're gonna leave and we're gonna break it all

25:18 Speaker 3: down again.

25:18 Speaker 9: Yeah.

25:18 Speaker 3: So I actually found a cohesive way to like tie

25:21 Speaker 3: it all in. So we're kind of happy we're sharing

25:24 Speaker 3: an experience in every event that's not gonna last so long,

25:26 Speaker 3: kind of like a mendala.

25:27 Speaker 10: Oh okay, I get it, and there it is. Yeah,

25:30 Speaker 10: that's that's cool. That's cool.

25:32 Speaker 1: One cool thing too.

25:32 Speaker 3: I just want to point out, and I don't know

25:34 Speaker 3: if Aaron's going to talk about it, but we do

25:35 Speaker 3: use all Earthworks microphones, so between him and Nick, they

25:39 Speaker 3: have they know how to Can you explain the difference

25:43 Speaker 3: between like a standard microphone and like what Earthworks does?

25:46 Speaker 10: Yeah?

25:47 Speaker 8: Please, Well the beauty is in the sound. Of course

25:51 Speaker 8: you have to hear it to understand it. Yeah, I'm

25:54 Speaker 8: not currently talking to an Earthworks microphone.

25:56 Speaker 3: No, there.

26:02 Speaker 8: Time coherent deserve the transient sponsors sounds in a way

26:08 Speaker 8: that what the microphone does. Okay, they have excellent Bowler responses.

26:14 Speaker 10: Okay, okay, you put a lot of love into a microphone. Okay, excellent, excellent?

26:20 Speaker 10: Uh based? Where is Earthworks based? Based in Wilton?

26:24 Speaker 3: And okay it's like literally three minutes down the road

26:27 Speaker 3: from our art studio. Okay, that's pretty great.

26:30 Speaker 10: Okay, okay. And then so do you work there too.

26:34 Speaker 13: Neck, I do not work at Earthworks, you do not.

26:37 Speaker 13: I I'm more of a freelance audio engineer. I work

26:40 Speaker 13: for a couple of different companies. But you know, work

26:43 Speaker 13: with Kate here used Earthwork microphones. I can you know

26:47 Speaker 13: I would concur with what Aaron is saying about there.

26:50 Speaker 13: I've never put them in front of something and it

26:52 Speaker 13: not work. Yeah, you know, and that and that that's

26:54 Speaker 13: a that's a that's a that's.

26:56 Speaker 14: A great thing.

26:57 Speaker 13: When you know, when when a musician or a band

26:59 Speaker 13: brings you their their image, their their art, and you

27:04 Speaker 13: want to faithfully recreate that for them, you know, putting,

27:07 Speaker 13: you know, the microphones are your first tool. Like as

27:10 Speaker 13: a framer, the first thing is the nail in the hammer,

27:13 Speaker 13: you know, in the wood that goes together. So it's

27:15 Speaker 13: like when you when you know that your tool is

27:17 Speaker 13: going to be good and true and straight, that makes

27:19 Speaker 13: a huge difference.

27:20 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, So that's obviously what you use at Uh.

27:24 Speaker 3: There's different models for different applications.

27:27 Speaker 13: Use the one, the one seventeens, the vocal microphones, Yeah,

27:30 Speaker 13: all right, and then there's a couple other things floating

27:32 Speaker 13: around in there, like some omnies and some instrument microphones,

27:36 Speaker 13: and every band's a little different to you know, some

27:39 Speaker 13: d I sitting on the floor.

27:40 Speaker 12: Yeah, I don't think Earthwork.

27:42 Speaker 14: Does Earthworks make d I s or micro pre amps.

27:44 Speaker 14: I don't think that's something we used to make premps.

27:46 Speaker 14: We don't do that anymore.

27:48 Speaker 8: Oh okay, we had a saying like wire with game

27:50 Speaker 8: we had these amazing one O two one, one O

27:54 Speaker 8: two two, one O two four series pre apps. Yeah,

27:57 Speaker 8: and but they're very expensive to Okay, gotcha, gotcha.

28:02 Speaker 3: You have brought the price down and a lot of

28:04 Speaker 3: their products, so people are really used to seeing a

28:06 Speaker 3: high price tag associated with Earthworks, but they've started to

28:09 Speaker 3: make the more consumer friendly. More musicians can independently buy

28:13 Speaker 3: them now, okay, you know it was before it was

28:15 Speaker 3: like quite an investment. So they recognize that. And so

28:18 Speaker 3: their vocal mic, which I've used a lot, I'm a

28:20 Speaker 3: big fan of, and I think it's only like two

28:21 Speaker 3: to three hundred bucks.

28:22 Speaker 13: Yeah yeah, oh wow, yeah, okay, that's definitely the last

28:27 Speaker 13: couple of years, I've seen them on festival stages more often.

28:30 Speaker 10: Really, yeah, you might want to replace these.

28:39 Speaker 3: I recommend these little salesman moment going on.

28:41 Speaker 10: Oh yeah, yeah, no, I respect it. I respect it.

28:46 Speaker 10: Now is the goal is the goal to have an

28:48 Speaker 10: event every weekend at the.

28:49 Speaker 3: Home right now, I'm just shooting for once a month,

28:51 Speaker 3: once a month, yeah, because I when it's not a

28:53 Speaker 3: music room, I use it for workshops and other other

28:58 Speaker 3: events within the art community. So I am using it,

29:01 Speaker 3: you know, to its full capacity at this point. So

29:04 Speaker 3: Peoplen go to prayers at nature dot com and it

29:06 Speaker 3: will show them a lot of our art. But there

29:08 Speaker 3: is a page for the listening room okay, and they

29:11 Speaker 3: just go to there and eventually, after today, I'm going

29:13 Speaker 3: to have all the most of the events listed and

29:16 Speaker 3: they range from a ten dollars donation to a forty

29:18 Speaker 3: dollars donation. Like I said, yeah, that's up to the artists.

29:21 Speaker 3: I let the artist. I try to empower the artists more,

29:24 Speaker 3: you know. I'm like, this is your space, you can

29:25 Speaker 3: use it. These are the options, and I let them

29:28 Speaker 3: curate their own experience. Okay, so I let them pick

29:32 Speaker 3: their opener. I'll let them pick who they want unless

29:34 Speaker 3: they were enough ideas, you know, so I'll make suggestions.

29:37 Speaker 3: But typically it's like that's the deal, you know, and

29:39 Speaker 3: we don't take a cut unless the room sells out. Okay,

29:42 Speaker 3: so you know, and it's only twenty chairs, right, and

29:45 Speaker 3: we don't take much of a cut anyway.

29:47 Speaker 10: Well, I was gonna say, most likely the room is

29:49 Speaker 10: going to sell out, I hope.

29:50 Speaker 7: So yeah, let's see.

29:51 Speaker 3: And I hope after a year we get, you know,

29:54 Speaker 3: a built in audience, because now it's half the battle

29:56 Speaker 3: as the venue needs to bring an audience. So I

29:58 Speaker 3: got my art enthusiasts already. You know, some of them

30:02 Speaker 3: are music enthusiasts and Wilton actually is a very enthusiastic

30:05 Speaker 3: town for music. It's you know, it's a small town,

30:08 Speaker 3: but they have Oh.

30:09 Speaker 10: I was scurious about that actually, because you know, as

30:11 Speaker 10: it occurred to me as we're sitting here, I don't

30:13 Speaker 10: know much about Wilton.

30:14 Speaker 3: It's like I call it between a mix of an

30:16 Speaker 3: Adam Sailor and Stephen Kim film. Yeah, it's like the same.

30:19 Speaker 3: It's like kind of creepy but kind of cute, you know,

30:21 Speaker 3: and it's got that New England crunch. It still has

30:23 Speaker 3: like that that that downtown village vibe to it.

30:27 Speaker 10: Yeah.

30:28 Speaker 3: And yeah, there's several little nooks and crannies there where

30:30 Speaker 3: you can hear live music, and I'm hoping to become

30:32 Speaker 3: one that's fairly popular for people to go to.

30:34 Speaker 10: Yeah. Yeah, awesome. You mentioned the shop too, So tell

30:38 Speaker 10: us tell us about that our shop.

30:40 Speaker 3: Yeah, like our art studio. Yeah, yeah, it's well, it's

30:43 Speaker 3: you know, it's it's for the hippies, it's for the

30:45 Speaker 3: metaphysical weirdos. It's for the people that like voodoo dolls,

30:49 Speaker 3: you know, and it's part of an entire art mill.

30:52 Speaker 3: Believe it or not. There's about thirty studios in the mill.

30:55 Speaker 3: So oh okay, I'm one of the few that's actually

30:57 Speaker 3: open to the public. And when you can get yes,

31:00 Speaker 3: you can stock up on crystals, sage Paulo Santo handmade

31:04 Speaker 3: jewelry by Aaron. I got voodoo dolls that I give

31:08 Speaker 3: to gen you know, in all host workshops as well,

31:10 Speaker 3: like craft workshops. I'll get other crafters in there and

31:12 Speaker 3: they can host like a wire wrap class or oh,

31:15 Speaker 3: like I think I'm doing a needle felting class after today.

31:18 Speaker 3: Like yeah, So it's very it's a good creative space,

31:21 Speaker 3: which I'm like, why aren't we putting music in here?

31:22 Speaker 3: Why don't we share this with musicians, give them a

31:25 Speaker 3: studio for the evening. So to me is it's just

31:28 Speaker 3: falling right in line with creativity and art and we're

31:30 Speaker 3: essentially just sharing the studio.

31:32 Speaker 10: Yeah you know.

31:33 Speaker 3: Yeah, so and then and the artists on that floor

31:35 Speaker 3: are all very excited about it. So they're they're thinking

31:38 Speaker 3: of opening their studios on the nights we have these events,

31:41 Speaker 3: which I'm not like twisting their arm about, you know,

31:43 Speaker 3: like it's.

31:43 Speaker 10: It's a great idea.

31:44 Speaker 1: Yeah.

31:45 Speaker 3: There's actually a guy that moved in right next door.

31:47 Speaker 3: He owns he does comic books, scale models, action figures.

31:51 Speaker 3: So I love that. I love the nerve and we

31:52 Speaker 3: got real excited. So hopefully some of these events we

31:55 Speaker 3: can get the artists around me to also open up

31:58 Speaker 3: their studio spaces. That's a great I have the whole

32:00 Speaker 3: hallway open up for like people can byo B. I

32:04 Speaker 3: don't mind if people bring a six pack or a

32:06 Speaker 3: bottle of wine and sure themselves. And then we put

32:08 Speaker 3: like puzzles and let people do puzzles and there's a

32:11 Speaker 3: merch table.

32:12 Speaker 10: Yeah.

32:12 Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see how it goes, you know, he just started.

32:15 Speaker 10: Yeah. No, it's a great idea.

32:16 Speaker 7: You said.

32:17 Speaker 10: There's like thirty different art studios.

32:19 Speaker 3: In the yeah, the building.

32:20 Speaker 10: Yeah, no kidding.

32:21 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of painters, a lot of photographers.

32:25 Speaker 3: There's a miniature artist, she does everything in miniature. Oh really, yeah, class,

32:32 Speaker 3: there's silversmith in class.

32:33 Speaker 10: Oh wow, yeah, that's right. Is it in downtown Wilton.

32:37 Speaker 3: Kind of it's like it's off the main street and

32:39 Speaker 3: it's it's down by the river, so it's called Riverview Mill.

32:43 Speaker 10: Okay, okay.

32:44 Speaker 15: Uh.

32:45 Speaker 10: Megan says Kate's passion for art, music and the community

32:48 Speaker 10: is incredible.

32:49 Speaker 3: So I used to book Megan or I didn't book her.

32:51 Speaker 3: I booked a couple of craft fairs that I worked

32:55 Speaker 3: with her. Oh I got to I had the pleasure

32:56 Speaker 3: of watching her work with her own community of people.

32:59 Speaker 3: She has this chance quite a fan base herself for

33:02 Speaker 3: her tie die, which I noticed right away. At these

33:04 Speaker 3: shows we would we would be vending at the Range

33:07 Speaker 3: in Mason, which is a great venue, great outdoor venue,

33:10 Speaker 3: and Nick Nick does sound for them. Actually, oh okay, okay, cool.

33:14 Speaker 3: And I think Tyler maybe played there.

33:15 Speaker 1: I know I've played.

33:16 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a great bunch. It's a great local, uh,

33:19 Speaker 3: you know, place to play. And so I remember Megan,

33:22 Speaker 3: you know, because there's like when you do craft fairs,

33:24 Speaker 3: there's always a tide person, there's always a soap maker,

33:26 Speaker 3: there's always like a crystal dealer. And she was probably

33:29 Speaker 3: the most popular tied ie craft I've ever seen. Yeah,

33:32 Speaker 3: Like people lined up to come to her booth.

33:34 Speaker 10: Yeah yeah, oh that's awesome.

33:35 Speaker 3: Her energy is great.

33:37 Speaker 10: Absolutely. Miriam says, I like Wilton. The Wilton town Hall

33:41 Speaker 10: Movie Theater is super cool. Yes, yes, yes, it is it. Yeah, yeah.

39:32 Speaker 10: of Darling Hill. We should talk about that too. What's

39:35 Speaker 10: new there are you? Have you been recording anything new

39:39 Speaker 10: or I've been doing a.

39:40 Speaker 3: Lot of practicing. I've had a lot of dental surgeries.

39:42 Speaker 3: Oh you love Yeah, yeah, they've been very unpredictable, so

39:45 Speaker 3: I have been hesitant to book but I am happy

39:47 Speaker 3: to say we did get asked to play at Nova

39:49 Speaker 3: Arts and Keene on February twenty seventh. So I'm opening.

39:54 Speaker 3: I forget the woman's name. I feel like such a jerk,

39:56 Speaker 3: but I was just so enamored that I finally got

39:58 Speaker 3: to play there. I'll just be on this because it's

40:00 Speaker 3: such a great venue. If you go all the way

40:01 Speaker 3: up to Keen, it's called Nova Arts on Emerald Street.

40:04 Speaker 10: Yes, yeah, I've been hearing about.

40:05 Speaker 3: Oh it's a great venue. Yeah, So I was I immediate.

40:08 Speaker 3: I didn't even know who I was opening. I said yes,

40:10 Speaker 3: I was like, yes, I'll do it. So I'm excited

40:12 Speaker 3: about that.

40:13 Speaker 7: We've been aaron.

40:13 Speaker 3: I've been practicing a lot at home, and I kind of,

40:17 Speaker 3: I'll be honest with you, when I started the listening room,

40:19 Speaker 3: I kind of wanted to have a place for Darling

40:20 Speaker 3: Hill to play.

40:21 Speaker 10: Yeah.

40:22 Speaker 3: If I got too scared to play, I get stage

40:24 Speaker 3: fright so bad. So yeah, I don't I don't mind talking,

40:27 Speaker 3: but the second I start like performing and like sharing

40:30 Speaker 3: my emotions openly, I get all begotarded about it. But

40:33 Speaker 3: so I was like, if I do it in my

40:34 Speaker 3: own space, I'm more inclined to feel comfortable and like

40:37 Speaker 3: have these little training wheels, you know. So I booked myself. Yeah,

40:42 Speaker 3: but not till October. Oh okay, okay, but I am

40:46 Speaker 3: playing Nova Arts and Keen and Handcock Depot actually asked

40:49 Speaker 3: me to play a feature in August. So I'm kind

40:52 Speaker 3: of sporadic because I go through a lot of surgeries

40:54 Speaker 3: at the moment. Oh yeah, so I have to like

40:57 Speaker 3: be tactful about who I say yes to. But you

40:59 Speaker 3: can find our music on all streaming platforms and I do.

41:03 Speaker 3: I am online, you know, Instagram and Facebook. I'll share

41:06 Speaker 3: a couple pictures of me playing the piano with the

41:09 Speaker 3: cats fighting in the background, you know, every once in

41:12 Speaker 3: a while, bang something out and share it. So I'm

41:14 Speaker 3: not completely gone.

41:15 Speaker 10: I just yeah, yeah, yeah. When we when we conclude

41:19 Speaker 10: the segment, we'll play another you send me another song

41:22 Speaker 10: that we hadn't played before. I don't think right, Bus

41:25 Speaker 10: number two, which is really interesting.

41:26 Speaker 3: I recorded that in Nashville, but before I recorded it

41:29 Speaker 3: in Nashville, actually recorded it at home. And Nick actually

41:32 Speaker 3: during the lockdowns, got a hold of some nice cameras

41:36 Speaker 3: you did, and he's like, let's you know, there's nothing

41:39 Speaker 3: going on. Everything was shut down. So we do have

41:41 Speaker 3: a music video for bus number two. Oh there is

41:43 Speaker 3: okay on if you just Google or go to YouTube

41:46 Speaker 3: Bus number two Darling Hill. And the song was an

41:48 Speaker 3: homage to a friend of mine in high school who

41:51 Speaker 3: passed away from a gun accident. Okay, So it is

41:54 Speaker 3: the song about going on the bus and sitting next

41:58 Speaker 3: to my crush and then one day I got on

42:00 Speaker 3: the bus and my crush wasn't there. Yeah, so that's

42:02 Speaker 3: what that song is. Kind of sad, but it sounds happy,

42:05 Speaker 3: but it's actually sad.

42:06 Speaker 10: Yeah. Yeah, it ends up sad. It starts out happy,

42:11 Speaker 10: but I was.

42:12 Speaker 3: I was happy to do it. It felt good. It

42:13 Speaker 3: was one of those songs that just came out. I didn't.

42:15 Speaker 3: I was actually trying to write a love song about

42:17 Speaker 3: I wanted to write a love song about Eron. Today

42:19 Speaker 3: I have not written one. It's driving me nuts. Oh

42:21 Speaker 3: and I could compare my love for him to like

42:23 Speaker 3: the purity of my first crush and happening. I ended

42:26 Speaker 3: up writing about my first crush.

42:27 Speaker 10: Oh, now, how do you feel about that? Aaron? I'm

42:29 Speaker 10: okay with You're okay with it? Okay, the most.

42:33 Speaker 3: Okay all right, we'll get there. We'll write a song

42:37 Speaker 3: about each other. I guess we have to break up

42:38 Speaker 3: in order for that to happen. So it's okay if

42:41 Speaker 3: we haven't made one yet.

42:43 Speaker 10: There you go, There you go.

42:46 Speaker 13: Uh.

42:46 Speaker 10: So we should remind people too. We should circle back

42:49 Speaker 10: to the listening room at Prayers of Nature.

42:51 Speaker 9: Yeap.

42:51 Speaker 3: Go to prayers in dot com. Good to prayers in

42:54 Speaker 3: Nature dot com and you'll find the page there. Okay,

42:56 Speaker 3: And we are on Instagram and Facebook. Yeah, we just

42:59 Speaker 3: created a YouTube channel. I haven't put anything on it yet,

43:01 Speaker 3: but it's created. So we're hoping to take content and

43:04 Speaker 3: put that on YouTube as well.

43:05 Speaker 1: Well.

43:06 Speaker 10: I was curious about that too, because the events that

43:07 Speaker 10: you're having there are so are so unique and special.

43:10 Speaker 10: Are you going to is the plan to record all

43:12 Speaker 10: of them and then put them online?

43:13 Speaker 1: Is that?

43:14 Speaker 9: Uh?

43:15 Speaker 13: And to a certain to a certain extent, because there's

43:17 Speaker 13: like you when musician comes in, it's like, I mean,

43:20 Speaker 13: went for a decade, every band that I've ever mixed,

43:22 Speaker 13: I've just taken a left right off the board is

43:24 Speaker 13: like an archive.

43:25 Speaker 14: Like this is my portfolio. It's the closest thing I

43:28 Speaker 14: get to it in a certain way.

43:30 Speaker 13: But at the same time, it's like, there's no reason

43:32 Speaker 13: I can't pass that off to an artist, right, But

43:35 Speaker 13: also at the same time or in the world of

43:36 Speaker 13: digital mixing and everywhere you go in major venues and

43:40 Speaker 13: festivals and even myself, I run around with digital console,

43:43 Speaker 13: took a laptop up.

43:45 Speaker 14: You've got it, You've you've got a record.

43:46 Speaker 13: Even right now, you know, I'm working in the background

43:50 Speaker 13: for Modern Fools on they played at the Bank in

43:53 Speaker 13: New Hampshire Conquered Center of the Art stage that's such

43:57 Speaker 13: a such a long hits.

43:58 Speaker 14: And the NHC anyways for the but I've been working

44:02 Speaker 14: on their multi track.

44:03 Speaker 13: And so the same thing when it comes to someone

44:05 Speaker 13: coming in the listening room, like Kate saying, it's always

44:08 Speaker 13: a unique experience. Every artist is different, and so when

44:12 Speaker 13: they come in, it's like give them that give give

44:16 Speaker 13: be able to give them something in return, not able.

44:18 Speaker 3: To give them a guarantee. But we can create some

44:20 Speaker 3: decent content for that.

44:21 Speaker 13: Right, whether it be some pictures or some video or

44:24 Speaker 13: you know, a band that gets to have a recording

44:26 Speaker 13: of themselves that may not have had that before, or

44:29 Speaker 13: or you know, or something and just if those kinds

44:32 Speaker 13: of things becoming just the next layer of accessible.

44:37 Speaker 14: Yeah, that's that's I think at least my goal.

44:40 Speaker 13: When it comes to it's like I'm just doing a thing,

44:43 Speaker 13: but at the same time, it's like I'm you know,

44:46 Speaker 13: it's I can I have the ability to pass that off,

44:49 Speaker 13: you know, and and and that's what I want to

44:51 Speaker 13: be able to do with an artist that comes in.

44:53 Speaker 13: It's like talking about like Quincy Lord and Sunset Electric,

44:56 Speaker 13: you know, in a situation like that, it's like it

44:58 Speaker 13: is relatively as easy as me hitting space bar and

45:02 Speaker 13: report and had and now here's a multi track recording

45:04 Speaker 13: of your live show that you know, if put some

45:07 Speaker 13: work into it, maybe becomes a live album release, you know,

45:11 Speaker 13: or something like that. Of a listening room, a quiet,

45:14 Speaker 13: intimate thing where people are going to be engaged with

45:17 Speaker 13: your music, you know. And it's like antelling how many

45:20 Speaker 13: crowd mics I've listened to While the band's playing, you

45:23 Speaker 13: can just hear everybody talking and having their own conversation,

45:26 Speaker 13: not listening to the band, you know, and it's like

45:28 Speaker 13: that's no fun. But it's so but but so there's yeah,

45:32 Speaker 13: it's not talking in circles. I think I convade myself.

45:36 Speaker 13: I answered your question. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

45:40 Speaker 14: Yeah, YouTube coming, streaming and stuff.

45:43 Speaker 13: So that's something we've definitely talked about, is like what

45:45 Speaker 13: are what what is this the aspect of like streaming

45:49 Speaker 13: at cameras, audio, all the things right, you know, making

45:52 Speaker 13: sure that it's like is that something I can manage

45:55 Speaker 13: or is it we need someone else to come in

45:56 Speaker 13: and help me do other things?

45:58 Speaker 14: When then then you start breaking into a different conversation.

46:01 Speaker 3: I haven't anticipate things will evolve over time, will you.

46:04 Speaker 10: Yeah, it doesn't work, no doubt.

46:07 Speaker 1: Yeah.

46:07 Speaker 9: No.

46:07 Speaker 10: I think it's cool though, to do that, because it's,

46:09 Speaker 10: like I said, it's such a cool and unique thing.

46:12 Speaker 10: You know, it would be a shame not to have

46:13 Speaker 10: a record of it, you know, and it helps everybody.

46:16 Speaker 10: You know, it helps the it helps the artist, it

46:18 Speaker 10: helps the listening room. But it helps you nick with

46:21 Speaker 10: your like you said, with your portfolio. You know, everybody

46:23 Speaker 10: benefits from that. So I think that's cool. I don't

46:25 Speaker 10: know if any of you remember the Sad Cafe. It

46:27 Speaker 10: was a place in Plastow. It was an all ages

46:30 Speaker 10: room and.

46:33 Speaker 14: Like jazz, open mics and stuff they did.

46:35 Speaker 10: They did all kinds of stuff there, but they would

46:37 Speaker 10: actually give you a seat, they would record you and

46:38 Speaker 10: they'd give you a CD at the end of the night.

46:40 Speaker 10: And I played there a lot. You know, this was

46:43 Speaker 10: like twenty years ago, but a couple of different bands

46:46 Speaker 10: I was in we played there a lot. But it

46:48 Speaker 10: was always and it was cool that they give you

46:50 Speaker 10: a CD at the end of the night. But it

46:51 Speaker 10: was very very mixed results depending on you know, who

46:56 Speaker 10: was who was working the board.

46:58 Speaker 3: Your pants too, yeah, studio, yeah, got to wing it.

47:02 Speaker 10: Yeah. Yeah. So there was some really there was some

47:05 Speaker 10: really good recordings that came out of there with some

47:06 Speaker 10: really and somewhere it's like I might as well take

47:09 Speaker 10: the CD and throw it at the you know, but

47:14 Speaker 10: but uh, but no, but I think it's I think

47:15 Speaker 10: it's cool that you're going to do that at the

47:17 Speaker 10: listening room. Yeah, it only makes sense. It only makes sense. Now.

47:20 Speaker 10: When is the next one?

47:21 Speaker 3: When's the February sixteenth?

47:22 Speaker 10: February sixteenth, I have Tyler come. That's so that's gonna be.

47:37 Speaker 1: is opening the show. And I met her a couple

47:40 Speaker 1: of times in Milford, watched her play in some open

47:44 Speaker 1: mics or something, and she has just an amazing voice,

47:47 Speaker 1: an incredible writer. So she popped into my head last

47:51 Speaker 1: minute I saw if she was available. She's going to

47:53 Speaker 1: be opening the show.
