And that track is not out yet. You have heard it here first that is the world radio premiere of Luna by the SERTs courtesy of Matt Connerton Unleashed, and of course we opened with We Beat the British from our friends the Melted Chapsticks, who we saw recently at the Spot in Nashua for a great show. That's where we met those guys, Frankie Hollywood and those guys.

7:34 Speaker 2: They will be here in studio with us, I believe on August first, so we look forward to that. We Beat the British, the perfect way to open the show. With apologies to my British friends, Hi, Stacey and Jeff if you're listening, but I'm pretty sure you are. That's who I watched Fireworks with last night. Ironically, and another irony in all of this, We've got three musical guests for you today and they all happen to be from the UK. I did not plan it that way. It's just how it all worked out. But here we are, and yes we are live, even though it is a holiday.

8:08 Speaker 2: As I explained last week, since moving the show to Saturdays, we have not missed one single Saturday. We have been here fifty two Saturdays out of the year. So I asked the big boss. I said, hey, can I still come in even tho it's a holiday.

8:21 Speaker 3: It'll just be me.

8:22 Speaker 2: I'll be the only one in the studio. He'll just be remote guests. And he was cool with it. So here we are and it is cool.

8:28 Speaker 3: You know what.

8:28 Speaker 2: I just realized by the way the ceiling fan is on last I knew last summer. I think it had stopped working at one point. They must have gotten it fixed. But the ceiling fan is working. No wonder it's so comfortable in here because this hot outside, So good luck everybody, it is very very hot outside. But yes, this is Matt Connorton Unleashed and we are live from the studios of WMNH ninety five point three FM and Glorious Hot but Glorious, Manchester, New Hampshire.

14:46 Speaker 3: Now, is it just you?

14:47 Speaker 2: Are you the only band member with.

14:48 Speaker 14: Us well so far, yes, as me and Daniel in England. We've just been sitting at our exams and stuff like that, so we're all very, very, very tired. But you know what, Matt, I've not given up.

15:02 Speaker 5: Matt.

15:02 Speaker 14: I knew that it was your show and I would not miss this for the world.

15:06 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, Wow, you're making me feel great. Well, thank you, Luke. I appreciate that. I appreciate you guys very much.

15:10 Speaker 14: To welcome my friends, very welcome.

15:13 Speaker 2: Love that song. Let's party like it's the nineties and I'm old enough to remember what it was like to party in the nineties, to the extent that I did actually party, which wasn't very much because I'm not a partier. But but I mean, let's start with the obvious question though, So what's what's that about? I mean, uh, what, or I guess it's obvious what's it about? But what was the genesis of that track? What what made you want to write that?

15:38 Speaker 14: So I remember being in school and I was in history class and I have these notes. Well, like I get bored, but I get so bored that I'm naturally just so now, and I remember feeling so bored. So I just went, you know what, I want to party. I want to go out with my friends. I'm sick of doing this. I want to just have a good time. And then the let's party like it's the nineties bit just hit me up my mind. And then history class was where I wrote the first ever chorus of that songwhere it's like, let's party like it's the nineties.

16:11 Speaker 14: So so it was all about me stuck in school, me stuck in real life and wanted to leave real life. And now the best nights out as humanly can.

16:22 Speaker 2: Very good, very good. So it sounds like the son came pretty quick, So was it? I mean, did you literally write the entire thing during history class or did you just get the chorus and you got the rest of it later.

16:32 Speaker 14: So when history class, I got the chorus, and then after that I went home. I had some lovely McDonald's when I got home, some lovely chitty no dots and fries. Yes, And after that I sat down and then the verses just came straight at me.

16:47 Speaker 2: Oh interesting, interesting, by the way, So I mentioned. I don't know if you were listening, but I mentioned at the top of the show. So I have a very close friend who is British who tells me that McDonald's is very different there and that it's much higher quality than in the United States.

17:01 Speaker 14: It is, it is. It is no offense. But I have been to America. I have been to what was the world's biggest McDonald's in Florida, and I must admit the English one I don't. I don't want to say it's more fancier, but like they put more efforts into the meals, which I don't really know. I mean, like McDonald's standards isn't quite high, but I must admit the meal quality fuels a lot better. So no offense to the American viewers. But if this, but if British McDonald's, like made to want or to would come to England, then absolutely go for it.

17:44 Speaker 14: Turn over and try ours at dot Donald's. Is it's absolutely lovely, very.

17:49 Speaker 2: Good, very good. Yeah, we eat a lot of Maybe I shouldn't say this. It's a very patriotic holiday in the United States, obviously, but we we do it a lot of that live for yes, yes, and I and I I did say at the top of the show, and because I have all all UK artists on the show today, which I did not plan it that way. It's just how it worked out. But so so you're the you're the first on the on the roster today. But God bless God.

18:17 Speaker 14: Bless England and God bless America.

18:19 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, well you know, I mean obviously, uh you guys, there have been a huge influence in our music, you know, without the you know, we talked about the British invasion, British invasion bands, you know, all those bands that helped shape American music. So we owe you that.

18:37 Speaker 14: Well, you are very very welcome. We're welcomed. She's not Paul John Ringo and all of those those we almost of America. Oh wait, sorry, not right. So in England, Jelyot is a bit different here as July, the four favorites actually celebrate in the one year anniversary of Oasis coming back. Oh so for us, it's like National Oasists Day here. So I'm celebrating.

19:10 Speaker 2: Now, how do you feel about Oasis? They're one of my favorite bands. But you know, when I when I talk to people from uh that that side of the pond, shall we say, I get mixed reactions. Some people are kind of sick of them and some people love them obviously, I mean, how do you feel about Oasis?

19:25 Speaker 14: I mean personally for me, they're one of the most influential bands on the planet. And the thing is, what I find is that people who say that, oh no, I don't really like Oasis have only listened to Underwall and called it a day, like did you actually go into the details? And obviously like I was there when they're told the UK and and died from Manchester, But but I went to London, which is like a sit to drive seem and I generally I bursted it into tears my song live. It was one of the greatest days of my life.

19:57 Speaker 14: So were people who say they don't like a waste. I guess they're a bit like poses in a way, well, like pretend to know stuff, but really listen to to Wonder Wall and and and and don't know Basnanga. So if it's not truly listen to them, go into their back catalog, listen to the master plan, which is all their B sides, yes, and truly getting into them. As no offense to people who don't like Oasis, but actually listen to them, it's incredible. I agree, yeah, at least that's my thoughts on it.

20:31 Speaker 2: My my my favorite Oasis song is ach Wei Switch as you know, was the B side?

20:35 Speaker 14: Oh well, that was actually the songs that I started crying and actually.

20:39 Speaker 2: Nodding the song.

20:41 Speaker 14: I was like, yes, no, loved yes, it's actually happened in and just burst into turms. That was actual on that.

20:48 Speaker 2: Side, crying on Oh, that's awesome. Was that on the reunion tour that they did over there or was that before?

20:55 Speaker 14: Yes?

20:55 Speaker 2: It was, yes, it was.

20:56 Speaker 14: It was the second song von of the A set list.

21:01 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, yeah, oh that's awesome. I'm so jealous. I've never seen them, never seen them live. So so what artists influenced that song? That's party like it's the nineties, Like did you have were there any particular artists that you had in mind, like maybe nineties artists or artists from any time period that influenced the song or did the song just kind of form in your brain and it came out how it came out?

21:24 Speaker 14: Well, I think it's a it's a bit strange. It's obviously in my brain like sometimes it it does just flow out, but there's a brick. But there's a British band called the Wombats and they have a song called Let's Stance to Joy Division Oh, which is basically like Let's Party Line the nineties, but ten times better and so like, so like I was listening to that and I was like, Wow, that's great and the song sort of feels like if the Wombats and the Buzzcocks had kids and then that kids could perform like Robbie Williams.

21:58 Speaker 14: Like that's the kind of vibe like the sort of gives so yeah, to be honest, the music that sort of inspires me is sort of like more modern music, like like Life. I tried to think of some American bands which with which like have inspired me, liked T two to like I love Like they're like my different alternative. But like, the British indie scene at the moment is incredible. We've got bands like The Roys and Club the Key, so you've probably never ever heard of, but there should be so much bigger as they are incredible.

22:34 Speaker 14: So the music that's bagging the most is like the New Ones. It's it's almost like it's almost like we're all friends and we're all like taking our ideas which other and turn it into our own. So the song sort of came from like my brain just wanting to be partying and so just all of the modern new music that's out now.

22:54 Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes sense. I imagine it gets a good response live too. People probably sing along.

23:00 Speaker 14: Oh yeah, I mean, like I remember, it was like a few days be before the song like actually came out. We played a gig and obviously with bittasing it to like four weeks with the tours and stuff like that, and people and people started like proper sending it back to us. And to be completely honest, I pried like life an absolute baby. But when it happened, because it's never ever happened before. Yeah, and and yet honestly, it was just one of the It was honestly just one of the greatest moments of my life and that I can never ever ever thank those people who changed that gid.

23:36 Speaker 2: You know, yeah, I mean it's you know, I'm a musician, and I know that it's when when you see people reacting to your music and jumping around and whatever, that's that's obviously very validating, But when they actually know the words and they start singing or they learn the words because obviously you can learn that chorus pretty quickly, you know, and they're so engaged and involved in it that they're actually singing along. I mean, that's that is an incredible feeling, no doubt, no doubt.

24:00 Speaker 14: Show. Well, my ego got boosted so oft. I mean I went from like being like a teenage kid to acting like Liam Gallagher and like ten seconds, like Maido went from zero to a thousand and then came straight down again. When we played I was on and no one knew the words. It was just such a great moment.

24:19 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. Are you guys playing a lot of shows?

24:23 Speaker 14: Uh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah, Like we're Honestly, I love being in this band so much as every weekend almost we'd go out and we play outside of our hometown of Bolton, which I know for some people sound sounds like the norm, but really it isn't. Like we have lots of friends and musicians who we were in Bolton who like once a year they might go to Sheffield, which is like an hour to hour try from Bolton. Judjo just your American listeners, and it's incredible, Like we make new fans, we meet new people, and we actually have our biggest head headline show at a venue in Manchester called the Death Institute, and we're so close to selling it out and that's going to be like a really big party for us.

25:11 Speaker 14: So every week weekend we're playing in new cities, new places and making new friends and it's the best job in the entire world, and I cannot be more grateful that on this earth, I'm given this life to do this job and it's the best feeling ever and I wouldn't change it for anything. So every week it's constant gigs and gigs and I'll love it.

25:36 Speaker 2: Oh that's awesome, that's fantastic. And how long have you guys been around, because I know you're very young, right, has this has this span been around for long or is it relatively new?

25:46 Speaker 14: I mean it depends what your early classes knew was we've been technically if we've been around for two years, but we released that first single last year, so I would say that definitely in the Bolton scene in our home, we've been around for a decent bit. But I think to some people, like two years are still quite new. Yeah, So I think it just depends what you define you as.

26:10 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, did the set like when you when you formed the band? I mean, did the sound come together pretty quickly? I mean, as it changed in that short period of time, or did you sound like you sound from the beginning?

26:22 Speaker 14: Oh my goodness, it has changed. I cannot watch some of those old videos really. I mean, like, I mean, like we used to do like ten Green Day covers in one set, and I was like, what we're doing? So like people who saw to say, like, oh, no, you're born with talent. You're not. You need to work on that talent, like like yeah, So, like we've worked hard and we've tried to like craft our own hunique sound. There's a lot of bands, Oh I want to sound like the Rolling Stones, I want to sound like t X two.

26:53 Speaker 14: But like, we don't want to be the second Green Day. We want to be the first Radio Yeah, and that's all we want to be. So yeah, it's definitely taken work, Like you have to work to find your sound. If it comes naturally, then I envy you so much. As it's taken a lot of hard work to try and find our sound.

27:14 Speaker 2: Right right, And where does the name come from? By the way, the radio addicts. I mean, you know, I don't know if there's a story behind it or if it's just I know.

27:22 Speaker 14: There is a story behind it, my friend story behind it. Right, So my mom, right, I love her obviously, so so, so so much. But in the car she listens to this radio station. Now I won't say the name of this radio station, but it is not good. Like, honestly, it's utterly terrible. It's the same ten pop songs.

27:44 Speaker 2: On loop and.

27:47 Speaker 14: Then they have Throwback Thursday and stuff like that where it's just another of those same pop songs repeated on loop. And honestly it's it's honestly awful, right, And so like when I form the band's like, I got in my mum's car and I was like, oh, not this radio station again, And in my mind I went, I really wish I could be addicted to the radio, and then went, oh my goodness. So it was almost like like you know how in like Disney Channel movies that they have like light bulb moments, it's like really over dramatic like that.

28:22 Speaker 14: Oh yeah, yeah, I was like, I wish I'd addicted to the radio. Praise one, It's that's it. So yeah, so that's how the name came.

28:31 Speaker 3: It's such a cool name.

28:33 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's such a cool name. It's it's almost surprising that somebody didn't already have it, you know, but that's great, thank you.

28:38 Speaker 15: Yeah.

28:40 Speaker 14: Well, well the radio is so is is so important and that's the reason why, like like like stream of music is good and we get like a bunch of music at our fit fit fingertips. But I don't want to lose radio, like genuinely now that I found like my favorite radio station, like yours, Matt, like like like, i don't want it to go. It's why I'm always on the radio doing interviews. I'm always its about local radio station. I'm always listening to Radio X in Manchester.

29:15 Speaker 6: Is.

29:16 Speaker 14: I don't want these radio stations to go. They're so important, and people don't realize how much of our lives are made up from radio.

29:24 Speaker 2: Absolutely, uh you know. And there's some people who thought that radio would be dead by now, you know, because that's technology, you know, because of streaming and podcasts and everything. But it's still thriving. It's definitely changed, you know, and and obviously the radio has had to adapt, you know, like like all the shows now like this show for example, obviously we're you know, we're live on FM radio in our area, but we're also streaming, you know, and then it goes up as a podcast and but you know, you just it's just a matter of adapting.

29:51 Speaker 2: But but I agree with you, radio is very important.

29:54 Speaker 1: Yeah.

29:55 Speaker 14: Yeah. One thing I found with like radio stations is that like it's now like listen online or watch online now, yeah, to type in the website and with some life, which I thought was quite cool. But yeah, I don't want videos soever. It should not be become a niche. It should stay mainstream.

30:14 Speaker 2: But that's just my opinion obviously, Yeah, one hundred percent, And obviously I'm biased, but I don't I don't want all this to go away ever. But yeah, no I don't. I don't think it's going anywhere. So I want to ask you about so in a in a moment, we're going to app well, after we wrap up our conversation, I am going to play another song from yours. I'm gonna play this song scroll My Life Away, at the conclusion of our our conversation. But oh absolutely, this is another great song. But I want to know more about this song and what inspired it because it sounds like it's very uh, you know, I take it as as kind of a critique of of because obviously this is a global problem, not just in the US, but there as well.

30:56 Speaker 2: You know, people kind of addicted to their phones and social media and all of that and and scrolling. You know, we call it doom scrolling. I don't know if that's the term you use over there.

31:06 Speaker 14: It's definitely a term here that is that is not just just just America. Do do doom scrolling is in England, in the UK. Don't don't worry, it's the same.

31:19 Speaker 2: So I mean, I assume that's what inspired the songs Scroll My Life Away.

31:24 Speaker 14: Oh yeah. Well, the thing is is that, like I remember one time I was a bit younger, but but I was in like a restaurant and I saw like three tables of like families and like all of them, I'd liked these like four year olds with these big iPads and these big cases holding it up and now just like just scrolling and watching videos and like tapping the streams and not like getting invested into real life. And then and then, and then, like the more I look I looked around, I saw teenagers strolling I saw that you had to order on a screen, and I was like, what what what, what's like happening and stuff like that and now and that was just like and I'm stunned as obviously, like when the phone first came out, nobody thought thought it would be this bid.

32:12 Speaker 14: And there are positives to the Internet, like like like the raids have grown because of the Internet with made new fans clays the Internet. But it's it steals time, that's the main thing. It steals time from younger kids to live their life. And it scares me on how much it's changed and how much worse. It's sort of getting so strong My life way is sort of like me just venting on what is going on? And with the there's nothing interesting anymore. But it's almost like a character almost going like like there's nothing interest anymore.

32:51 Speaker 14: I've done so much, I've strong so much, there's literally nothing, like my brain's fried. So it's so it's sort of like it's sort of like me voicing through a character, what is going on here? Come on, let let let's sort of grow, touch some glass, go outside. Yeah, like it's sort of just doing come on, guys, just.

33:14 Speaker 2: Grow, come on right, right, well, it's to your credit to you know, the because I know you guys are young, that you know someone your age, uh perceives that, and and because you know, it's easy for me to see it, like because I'm I'm Generation X. My generation was the last generation to really kind of grow up without the Internet, and so so I remember, I sort of remember. It's almost kind of surreal remembering life pre Internet. And don't get me wrong, I love what we have now. You know, I don't so much of what I do I wouldn't be able to do without the Internet.

33:46 Speaker 2: So and I love that I can access music, you know, easily, and every everything about it is wonderful. But but yeah, you do see you see people with their heads and their phones, you know, or or a common problem here is I'll be uh, I'll be at an intersection and the light will turn from red to green, but the car in front of me isn't moving, and and you know, a few seconds. You know, I'm a patient guy, so I'll give them a few seconds. But then I end up having to hank that horn because and I know what it is.

34:11 Speaker 2: They're looking at their phone. Oh yeah, Oh.

34:14 Speaker 14: That issue is also here in England's my my friends, but do not worry me.

34:20 Speaker 8: Yeah, don't worry In England it's the same thing, like like white people on their phones while driving and like, come on, there's a road in front of you, there's track it lights.

34:31 Speaker 14: In front of your what are you doing?

34:33 Speaker 2: Yeah come on?

This week's show is not pre recorded, even though it is a holiday, July fourth, Independence Day, Happy Independence Day. We are live from the studios of wm NH ninety five point three FM in Glorious Manchester, New Hampshire. This is Matt Connorton Unleashed and I think right now, well, first let's say hello to everybody in the chat.

Happy fourth of July, replying to Loud Entertainment, Loud Entertainment, good morning and happy fourth of July. Yes, yes, and of course for our UK listeners, it is Oasis Day, as we learned from our friend Luke from the Radio Addicts, So of course we've got if you're just joining us, if you didn't hear me to say at the top of the show, we've got a three musical guests today.

42:09 Speaker 2: Radio Addicts was the first one. We also have the Azua Zen Oh sorry, the Azures I think that's how you say it. The Azuresins will be with us in the second hour. In the third hour, we have Million Years. They're all UK bands today, so in the interest of balance, because we are an American radio show on an American radio station. And by the way, I didn't plan it that way that we would have all British bands on the show. It just worked out that way. But we did open with a new song we beat the British from our friends the Melted Chapsticks, great band from Boston, and we'll play that again later in the show, probably in the second hour.

42:48 Speaker 2: But right now this has become an unofficial annual tradition on the show. I like to share with you every Fourth of July, or well, it's rare that the show actually falls on the fourth itself, around the fourth of July. My favorite patriotic song of all time. Some people might not think I'm patriotic, but I can assure you I am. By the way, I'm even wearing my I wanted to wear a shirt today that said America on it, but I also wanted to wear a shirt from one of the bands that we've had on the show that brings us merch.

43:14 Speaker 2: So I'm wearing my Heavy America shirt. Heavy America, great band. We haven't had them on in like three years. We had to get them back on, but I thought, oh, this shirt says America and it I'll Heavy America shirt. I even have a Heavy America track I'll play later in the show. But anyway, but what I would like to do now again this has become an unofficial tradition. My favorite patriotic song, and it's been my patriotic, My favorite patriotic song since I was a kid. And some people make fun of me for this, but to me, this song, there's nothing more American than this song.

43:49 Speaker 2: This song encapsulates what America is about. Yes, my friends, longtime listeners already know I'm talking about Yankee Rose by David Lee Roth.

44:10 Speaker 10: Why well, let me roll a buck to the sidewalk and take a look.

44:15 Speaker 3: Is whoa, whoa?

47:38 Speaker 2: What is more American than Yankee Rose? By David Lee Roth, I ask you my favorite patriotic song.

47:46 Speaker 3: Welcome everybody.

47:47 Speaker 2: This is Matt Connorton, Unleashed and yes we are live from the studios of w m n H ninety five point three FM and Glorious man Chester, New Hampshire. Thank you again to Luke from the radio Addicts for joining us and of course coming up. In the second hour we have the Azuzins. In the third hour we have million years. And right now I'm gonna sneak this into one other patriotic thing because we have a lot of British bands on the show today, so just kind of balance things out, I'm gonna play one other patriotic thing that I do love.

48:16 Speaker 2: My favorite band Kiss, their third live album called appropriately Enough A Live three, which came out in ninety three, they would do, and I saw them on this tour on the Revenge Tour, they would do at the end of the show, the star Spangled Banner. I'm not sure why they chose that specific tour to do that, but that's how they would end the show. See, they didn't end with rock and roll all night for once on that tour. They would end with their rendition of the star Spangled banner. So this is the other thing that I kind of make it an unofficial tradition to play every year around the fourth of July, or in this case, literally on the fourth of July.

48:53 Speaker 2: Here it is from A Live three Kiss, star Spangled Banners.

49:29 Speaker 18: S.
