Speaker 12: Jenny.
Speaker 13: Good morning, Sunshine.
Speaker 3: Jenny is here at the news table. First time in a long time. It has been a while.
Speaker 13: I have missed home.
Speaker 3: Well, you've been very You've been very, very busy.
Speaker 13: I'm happy to be home. Yes, yes, I have been very busy. There's a lot going on. Definitely go check out Jen Coff. Do you want to keep up on all the trouble I get into good trouble that.
Speaker 3: Is, yes, yes, absolutely, I do want to say too, just for our live listeners, if you if you tried going to the Wmnhradio dot org website to stream the show this morning, if you are listening live, it's not working, not because of anything having to do with WMNH actually, but because of the service that we use that distributes our live stream. It's not working on the wmn H website. But if you go to Matt connorton dot com slash live and click that link, that is working. So if you're trying to if you're currently listening to the show somewhere else you know.
Speaker 3: Of course, we stream to YouTube and Facebook and Good Morning Australia and Australia. Yes, our friends in Australia and they can hear us because they get the raw audio stream there. But but depending on how you're listening to the show, if you're trying to if you tried to listen to it at the Wmnhradio dot org website and it wasn't working, we use a service called radio Jar and they're having a problem on their end. It has nothing to do with us, but the stream is still going out. So you can still stream the show live, you just can't necessarily stream it on the WMNH site right now if you're listening live on Saturday morning.
Speaker 3: So if you go to Matt connorton dot com slash live, though that link does get you to the feed, you might already be there. But if you happen to be streaming the show on social media and you just want the audio feed, you have one less option today as far as how you can get it. But again, it's got nothing to do with us. It's a radio jar problem. That's a service that we use here and that I've used also for my own stream for probably the better part of ten years now. We don't usually have any issues with it, but just so you know, in case anyone's confused, if anyone went to Wmnhradio dot org and said, why isn't it working, it's not our fault.
Speaker 3: I promise it's got nothing to do with us. But of course you can stream the show. Like I said Matt connorton dot com slash live, We're currently streaming to Youtubeube and other social media, you know, Facebook, and we haven't streamed the show to LinkedIn, which some people think is odd, but why not. It's an option, right, But we do have a great show for you today coming up in just a few minutes. We're gonna be joined by Dylan Jones all the way from Utah country artists. We don't have a lot of country artists on the show, but we did do a world radio premiere for his single Town Like Mine a couple of months ago, and he's going to be calling in.
Speaker 3: He is calling. He didn't travel He's not traveling all the way here to speak to us. In the second hour, Echo Ray will be here with us live in studio. She promotes a lot of music from the area and always she's very very active in that, so we like having her on talking to her. And then in the third hour, Lou Antonucci returns to the show, and this might be I don't know, today's appearance might put him in the five timers club. I'm not actually sure.
Speaker 13: Maybe a new member might be about to happen.
Speaker 3: Maybe it's either going to be his fourth or fifth appearance on the show. To remember that last week, he's been on quite a bit, because I remember the first time he was on. He was It's been a few years since his first appearance on the show because it was at the old studio when we were on Elm Street. So he's been on a bunch but we always enjoy talking with him. So we have a very busy show for you today. I also want to mention and I want to say thank you to Will and Lexi from Sepsis. They had me as a guest on their podcast this week, The Sepsist Show.
Speaker 3: They interviewed me on. Yeah, that was I really enjoyed that. Well, I loved watching it. It was really good. The entire episode was great. Yeah. Yeah, And they actually leading up to the interview, they do a lot of segments kind of similar to what we do here. You know, when we have time between our musical guests, when we talk about music industry news. They do a lot of that on the Sepsist Show as well, so it's very informative in that way. And then the interview is at the end of the show. So check out their YouTube channel.
Speaker 3: Just go on YouTube look for the Sepsist Show. You'll find it and you can find the segment with me, or if you just want the segment with me, Although again I do encourage you to check out the whole show, but I did post the segment on my social media, specifically with my interview as well as on the IPM Nation YouTube channel. They gave me permission to do that, they said, a fair use, you know what you want. It helps everybody, so that is uh oh, hello to Andrew Brown and Dublin listening to us from Dublin local radio.
Speaker 3: There, Hello Andrew, Welcome, welcome, welcome.
Speaker 13: In a big shout out to Julie in Denver, my life saver, I do love you and I love that you are.
Speaker 14: Here with us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Hello to Julie in Denver, Colorado. Yeah. Yeah, we have listeners all over. Of course, we love our listeners locally here in Manchester, New Hampshire at ninety five point three FM. But you know it is we do live in an era where you can get anything anywhere. Really well, I mean, I'm sure there are places in the world where you're not allowed to listen to us. But North Korea, North Korea, you probably probably cannot hear the show in North are they They keep a tight control on what streams there, you know, Well, yeah, no, their world is very very controlled.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, absolutely, but most places in the world you can get the show, so everything is that's why I always laugh when well, I used to laugh. I don't know if he says it anymore. But our friend Glenn R. J. Willette, he's talking about being global, and it's like, well, Glenn, if you're on the internet, I mean, everything's global if you're on the internet. But I did, Oh, I should mention too. I haven't posted the picture yet. I did run into recently at the post office. Our friend will Let Glenn the Artist A congratulations to will let Glenn the Artist who apparently is going on a big.
Speaker 13: Tour artist formerly known as Glenn.
Speaker 15: Yeah, We'll let Glenn the Artist is his official the artist and interesting he told me all about how there's a funny he didn't mention the name, but he said, there's a big Nashville artist he's going to be opening for going on a big tour.
Speaker 3: His face will be on the tour bus and very very excited for We'll let Glenn the Artist.
Speaker 13: Did you know he was born on a bridge and they didn't know if he was Canadian or American.
Speaker 3: That is the story he has been telling since the day I met him, and I've known him for probably twenty years now. Yes, we'll let Glenn the artist, formerly known as Glenn Willett, Glenn ARJ. Will Let, the People's Mayor. He He says that he was born on a bridge bridge on a bridge the connects the United States and Canada, and because he was born on the bridge, he has dual citizenship because he's so he's not He's neither Canadian nor American. He is both. So that's up. That's what he's been telling us for two decades and probably longer.
Speaker 3: We do We we love You can hear him every Thursday on the Morning Show with Peter White, of course the Morning, Yes, the Morning Show with White week days of course from seven to nine am here on WM and H, and Glenn is a regular fixture there on Thursday mornings.
Speaker 13: Is that the day that they play games.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 13: I'm gonna have to tune back in and hear that. But I get up early enough. The problem is the Morning Show sometimes I'm just not up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm usually I'm working when it's on, but so I get to hear bits and pieces of it. But I did hear a pretty entertaining uh segment with Glenn recently where he got a bit upset, which I texted Peter about later in the day, I said, dude, that was that was gold. I love I've said this many times now. What was upsetting? I don't I don't know. He's just Peter was getting under his skin a little bit. But I do love the way of doing that, you know. I love the dynamic and I've always loved the dynamic between Peter White and our friend will let Glenn the artist.
Speaker 3: I just think it's a lot of fun and there's a lot of history there, and there's some great segments that you can find on YouTube.
Speaker 13: And there was a real fun segment that was on right before your show this morning. So, of course, good morning, Easy, we love you. Were you were quite highlighted in this morning's episode.

Right now, what we're gonna do that We're gonna play the single from Dylan Jones. It's called Town Like Mine Again. You heard it here first a couple of months ago. We did a world radio premiere for this, and then we're gonna have Dylan Jones. He's gonna be calling the studio line any minute, so we'll get him on and then we'll talk with him again.
Speaker 3: I believe he is in Utah, which is well, so it's early for him. But you know what, he grew up on a ranch. He's used to gay like two hours getting up early. Maybe I'm not sure. I'm not sure, which probably yeah, But so we'll be talking with him in just a few minutes. Dylan Jones coming right up.

Speaker 3: All right. That is called a celebrity club, and that is Dylan Jones. Welcome to the show.
Speaker 19: Yeah, thank you. Yeah, I'm excited to be.
Speaker 3: Here, absolutely absolutely. Now are you I was talking about you a little bit before we played town like Mine? Are you currently? Do you currently live in Utah?
Speaker 7: Still?
Speaker 20: I do?
Speaker 19: Yeah, I'm from a small town called Leeds. I was actually born and raised there and about a year and a half ago was able to purchase property and come back.
Speaker 3: So oh outstanding. Now you grew up You grew up on a ranch, correct, Yeah.
Speaker 19: So the family we raised quarter horses, mostly for rodeo and ranch work, and it started years ago. My dad has been in the business throughout thirty years. They had a piece of property in Colorado where they would guide elk hunts, and in order to do that successfully, they needed some good horses to pack and to ride and go through the country. So they started buying good horses and then moved the opperation down here after this whole collar Ada ranch and we've been doing it ever since.
Speaker 3: Now I'm curious about you know, I don't know a lot about this, but I've always assumed that it's very, very hard work and that it's not you know, I'm kind of showing my age when I say this, but you know, I grew up watching the shows like Dallas where they make it look like, you know, very glamorous on the ranch. But I assume it's it's incredibly hard work and it probably takes an implacable work ethic. But I mean, tell me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 19: No, you're you're right on the money. It kind of depends on what you dedicate yourself to. But we're, you know, a working farm and ranch. So we grow our own hay and put that up for the winter. We have cows, we have sheep and chickens and everything else in between. And then the horses side of things. We you know, will raise the colts until they're you know, about a year old, and then most of them will sell and go into rodeo homes and the rest of them we keep and start training ourselves and get riding and work onto shows later.
Speaker 19: So it's a lot of work, and it's a family effort.
Speaker 21: Right now.
Speaker 19: I've got five siblings and my parents that all live close by, and we all pitch in and make the ranch work.
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, what time is it there? By the way, I assume it's because you must be used to getting up pretty early. I was commenting to Jenny earlier that you know you're you're at least two hours behind us.
Speaker 19: I think, right, yeah, we're about seven thirty right now, but I've been up for about an.
Speaker 3: Hour, so yeah, that's no problem for you certainly. So do you think, well, when did you start playing music? Did I read correctly that you started learning to be a musician at six years old? Is that correct?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 19: So my family kind of had like a bluegrass band growing up, and I did percussion in ukulele when I was that young. And my sister's a phenomenal fiddle player. Actually, oh, I mean she had scholarships to universities and was first chair from her freshman year, so really really phenomenal. And I was kind of just a backup guitar player for her for a lot of years, and then she eventually got married and moved out of the house, and so I was sitting there with a guitar winder and what to do with it, and decided to learn how to sing.
Speaker 3: So so that was the beginning of that. Now does she still.
Speaker 9: Play, She does.
Speaker 19: She actually usually plays in the band with us. She had a baby recently, so she's kind of on maternity leave.
Speaker 3: But gotcha.
Speaker 19: Yeah, she's just phenomenal.
Speaker 3: Bluegrass is impressive because I so I had never so many many years ago I had I worked for a concert promoter who had booked Ricky Skaggs to play a show in conquer New Hampshire. Yeah, this was and I don't know, I mean, he's Is he still around Ricky Skaggs? Yeah he is, okay, because this would have been this would have been quite some time ago, again showing my age a little bit, but at least, you know, more more than a couple of decades. But but he he had booked a this promoter that I worked for had booked Ricky Skaggs to play this theater show in Conqueror, New Hampshire.
Speaker 3: And I'd never really listen to. You know, I'd always been aware of bluegrass, and of course I respect all genres of music, but i'd never really, i'd never seen a bluegrass band live or anything. And I just remember being there at the show watching because I know, you know, he's had some mainstream success and whatnot, but he's also you know, like bluegrass. I think is where at least my impression is, that's where Ricky Skaggs, that's where his heart really is. And I'm watching him with this bluegrass band on stage, and it really caused me to just that experience really have a whole new level of respect for what they were doing because I'm thinking, you know, this is I mean, I'm a musician, I play bass, I've played in some rock bands, you know, But I'm watching this bluegrass band play and I'm thinking that looks really difficult.
Speaker 3: What they're doing, both individually and together as a group, to me, looks very complicated. And it really impressed me, and I can't away from that experience with a whole new respect for bluegrass.
Speaker 19: Yeah, it's it's quite difficult to be proficient at and I would not call myself a fantastic bluegrass player. Still, I can hold my own on a stage, but yeah, it's its own animal with the you know, flat picking and even the rhythm on guitar for for that's just really really difficult. But and then usually they're just in front of like a canned mike, and so y'all have to kind of balance your own tone and volume based on where you stand and try not to get the other person's way. It's it's quite interesting, but it's super fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's interesting too. What you said about about, you know, they're around a mic a single mike. I hadn't even thought about that part, but yeah, that's true. There's there's a real art and a skill to that. So so you started playing really young, Like when did you begin writing your own songs?
Speaker 16: Do you know?
Speaker 3: Can you put it?
Speaker 19: That didn't come until years later. So yeah, I started into college and by then, you know, my sister moved out, and so I was kind of playing and singing my own stuff, just a lot of like nineties covers is what I like singing and listening to. Yeah, and then I'd always had this appreciation for chicken picking, and I mean, every day I just try to figure out how in the world to do that. Well, I finally bought a Telly when I was twenty two or twenty three, and I started picking it up, learned some Dwight Yoakam songs and just that type of thing, and then decided to start performing a little bit.
Speaker 19: So we started a cover band for nineties country, and then a few years into that is when I started writing songs. And the very first song I ever wrote was the Celebrity Club. I don't know if you've heard that one.
Speaker 3: Yet, that's the one we just played right before we talked to you. Yeah, so that was the first song you ever wrote.
Speaker 19: Yeah, And what happened is I got invited to open up for a guy named john Ford Cole, who is best known with England Dan and I'd actually never heard of him, definitely, but I was invited to open for his show and I went and played and it was really cool and just had a really fun experience. And I had about a fifteen minute drive home and that chorus came to me in full on that drive. Yeah, And you know, a few months later it finally worked out the rest of it. But that was the first time I ever tried writing a song and it worked out pretty good.
Speaker 19: So I started writing more.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, well, yeah, you got off to a great start, and you know, getting to play with john Ford Coley, that's that's It's easy to see how that would be a big inspiration for you. You also performed with the Saint George Symphony. Tell me about that.
Speaker 19: Yeah, that's mostly due to my sister.
Speaker 7: Oh.
Speaker 19: It was her senior year and she had her you know, kind of showcase performance as her graduating part of music, and so she convinced her professor to let her do The Devil went down to Georgia with the Symphony.
Speaker 6: Oh wow.
Speaker 19: That They needed somebody to sing it and somebody that could kind of do justice the country. So they asked me to step in and I played guitar and sing The Devil went down to Georgia with the St. George Symphony.
Speaker 3: Oh no kidding. Oh that's pretty cool. Is there is that online anywhere? Like, is there a video of that?
Speaker 19: I would have to track it down. I would assume there is, but I haven't went looking for it.
Speaker 12: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that would just be uh, that would just be cool to see. I mean I assume it went well.
Speaker 19: Yeah, it went really well. Yeah, they didn't know what was coming with the symphony playing that, but they did a really good job.
Speaker 3: Oh that's cool. That's cool. Is it difficult to balance everything that you're doing, because obviously you're very busy, you know, as as we you know, we discussed briefly earlier. You know, Uh, the work that you do is challenging, I would imagine, I mean, is it hard to fit everything all in?
Speaker 19: Yeah, it really is. Apart from the ranch, actually own a little service company that does like window cleaning and Christmas lights and pool cleaning and things like that. Oh and so that's where I make most of my cash flow. And then I can, you know, spend my free time doing music stuff, and then of course the ranch and everything too. But and completely independent as of right now, just kind of work in my own schedule. And the nice thing about it though, is that I do have my parents that help out a lot.
Speaker 19: My dad actually drums for me most of the time, and my mom plays bass.
Speaker 6: Oh wow.
Speaker 19: And then when I have my sister on the fiddle, it's pretty easy to book gigs and go out and play. So yeah, in that aspect, they've really made it easy to do music, which is nice.
Speaker 3: Oh that's fantastic. Well, yeah, and having I mean, obviously you're you know, it's always helpful when you decide you want to be a musician and you want to do that professionally. It's helpful when you have family members who are supportive, because not everyone's family is, but you've you've got that plus you know, plus more right, because they're not only supportive, but they're actively participating. That's great.
Speaker 19: Yeah, yeah, they're really good for that.
Speaker 3: That's amazing. I would imagine, is is it easy as far as you know? There must be because your family. There's probably something almost intuitive I would imagine about how you how you you know, come together in terms of learning the songs, playing the songs, how you gel together on stage. I mean, does that make it easier? Do you think that? Because your family, Yeah.
Speaker 19: It's so much easier. And it's interesting. We'll have a lot of people after shows come up to us and just say that there was something different because they could tell that we just clicked. Especially with my sister. You know, she'll do harmony vocals for me and I'll let her sing some some good female vocal country songs too, and we just bounce back and forth so easy. And I mean if we mess up. Usually people don't know because as we just start playing whatever the other person is playing and cover it up.
Speaker 19: And it makes it really really easy to perform that way, just because we've spent so much time together, we can read the cues. We can Yeah, it's it's really nice and I've played with other people and it works well. But it takes a lot more practice and then you know, improvise they are doing improve and stuff's a lot harder too with just a higher group because they don't really know where your brain's going and things. So yeah, having family play is definitely the best thing.
Speaker 3: Now, how has it worked with her being out because you know, obviously you know you mentioned we're having a baby. Do you have a different fiddle player who plays with you or are you taking a break from live shows until she's able to come back or how does that work?
Speaker 22: Yeah?
Speaker 19: We uh, Because we started putting out music, I've actually had a massive influx of live shows in the area. Good and so I've got a pedal steel player out here, he's probably the only one in southern Utah. Found him this random little show that I played years ago and asked if you wanted to join the band. So if he's available, he's there most of the time. And then there's another one that a fiddle player. I think he played for the Bargee Wranglers at one point, and he's also kind of a tour guide and stuff, so he's not always around, but if he's in town, he'll come and play with me every time.
Speaker 19: So and then I play my own lead guitar, so if I actually have to, I can make the show a little exciting with a trio band. But yeah, I definitely like another aspect of music there.
Speaker 3: So that must be cool though, that you can sort of work in different configurations. I've always you know, I I I'm not active anymore as far as playing, but I've played in a lot of bands and I but I never I never played in a band where you could have different configurations depending on you know, who was available or what might work for the venue or whatever it is, and be able to take take the existing songs and just sort of adapt them like you're able to do that be cool too. I would imagine there's something sort of liberating because about that, because it gives you a certain flexibility that you might not have if, you know, if you were in a different kind of band.
Speaker 19: Oh absolutely. Yeah. I've got this bass player who's written some blues stuff, And if we're out on a show and you know, I'm either sung out or we don't have the fiddle or something, I'll just let him take the mic and we'll just jam out on a blue song for five or six minutes. And yeah, it's really easy to just kind of mold around the music and the song rather than be so stuck in a show that you can't perform. So it is liberating that way. And in the other aspect, I think it's nice to kind of have the leisure and freedom to play venues that are really forgiving that way, where they're just there to hear good music.
Speaker 19: They don't they're not really coming for this, you know, a list show from Dylan Jones. They're coming to see who this kid is and if you can play music. So it's really fun to just be a musician.
Speaker 3: Excellent, excellent. So what's kind of the long term trajectory for you? You know, we have some some singles that you sent us. Are these do you have an EP on the way or a full album or are you are you going to continue releasing singles? Do you think or what's kind of your long term plan.
Speaker 19: Yeah, that's a really good question, and I'm having a little bit of a difficulty figuring out what to do, just based on the way music performs nowadays. But I've got six songs already made, two more to be released. But I'm heading to Nashville again today and I'll be cutting another four songs. Oh and then at that point, they're all kind of cowboy rodeo, western themed, So I'm thinking maybe doing more of like a waterfall release into an EP album.
Speaker 15: M HM.
Speaker 19: Singles seem to do really, really well into in today's statistics, just they each get their own moment in the spotlight, and well, because you throw an album out, they may only get through two or three songs and then never hear the rest. And yeah, I love all my songs, so I want I want each one to be able to get heard. So whether I do singles or an EP is still a question. But I've got another four that we're recording this upcoming week and they'll be out in the next few months.
Speaker 10: I think.
Speaker 3: So oh fantastic. So you're going to Nashville to do that? What the ones that we've been playing already were those also recorded there in Nashville.
Speaker 19: They were Yeah, and really the Nashville is just such a fun place. It's it's just got the best of the best as far as musicians go. But really it's the session players. I think they're the most valuable there for us, because I mean I could sit down there and I could beat with a hammer on a song for a hundred hours and still only come up with seventy percent of what these.
Speaker 21: Guys come up with.
Speaker 19: So it's just really nice to go in there. I can show them my song, tell them exactly what I'm thinking, and they'll play it just you know, it's just right the first time that they play it. So yeah, in that aspect, that's why I do Nashville. And they're really really good and they're good to work with me, and I may not be streamlined country right now that they they understand the vibe I'm going for and they're willing to make it happen, so.
Speaker 3: Right right, no doubt. Is it intimidating at.
Speaker 6: All going there?
Speaker 19: Yeah, it definitely was.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 19: Yeah, I have a a friend, so I got into Nashville because I was playing up at Bryce Canyon as kind of a filler for a summer. Yeah, Bryce Canyon Wranglers is what they're called.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 19: Tim Gates is the lead singer up there. He's also in Due West band, and he had a lead guitar player that's been with him for a while that I met out there, and we're just really headed off. Like every day I was up there, we'd spend most of the day just playing guitar and jamming back and forth. He'd teach me something, and so I ended up flying out to Nashville and staying at his house and he kind of introduced me to the whole scene. And then Tim he was able to hook me up with the engineer. And I mean, they're just such good people out there.
Speaker 19: It's intimidating because they're so talented, right, but they love music so much that they aren't they're not that judgmental about it.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 19: They really invite you in and as long as you're willing to work on good music, they're willing to.
Speaker 17: Do it with you.
Speaker 3: So yeah, well that's excellent, that's exciting. Well, Dylan, this has been wonderful.
