Matt Connarton Unleashed: My Last Mile

0:00 The band is My Last Mile, and we have Aaron and Rich from the band My Last Mile here with us in studio. How are you guys doing well? How are you very well? Very well? And who are we missing? So you you you are actually a quartet? Yeah, we're missing our drummer Mike Goslin and our bassis Nick Truist. No rhythm section, I see. Now. What what do you guys each do in the band? Well? I play rhythm guitar okay, and I do a little bit of a backup vocals okay, very good, and erin how about you? I do lead vocals and lead guitar.

0:33 Excellent, excellent. Yeah, I've been looking forward to talking to you guys because I opened the show with that song Island, And of course, so we just are at seaside and we'll we'll play another track in a little bit. But I love your sound. It's you know, it's it's kind of kind of heavy rock, but it's super catchy, you know, very melodic, just really good. Jenny, Jenny really likes it too. She was she was saying to me, You're really gonna like this band, you know, when when she first kind of presented you guys, to me, you know, she does all the book in it, and I said, yeah, these guys are amazing.

1:06 Have you been around a long time? My last molel originally started an upstate New York where I'm from, and I had a different lineup then, And this is back to like twenty sixteen seventeen, and we did a lot of shows up in that Upstate New York scene. We released the EP The Storm Is Out, and then time went on. I moved out here when COVID started, and I kind of hung it up for a little bit. But then rich actually and I started jamming together and he's like, you know, I really like those songs yea, and I would really love to play those songs.

1:34 So we had a couple of guys just you know, to get a feel for him, and we finally got the lineup that we actually really want and these guys all love the love the songs and we may rehearse them every week, and ye also working on new material as well, because like I can't just say, hey, let's just rehearse, you know, all the old stuff. We also have to make it kind of more. It's also kind of like a new band. It feels like sure, at the same time, Sure, it's been a lot of fun. Rich What was it about the songs that made you want to be a part of this and to work with Aaron?

2:05 Oh? The songs were definitely they're catchy, they're mostly upbeat. I mean, it gets you bob in your head a little bit, you know, and uh, I just really was digging the sound and I pulled them aside and I was like, hey, I think we should, uh we should bring this back. Yeah, And I was definitely like like starstruck because this sound was so like so there, and yeah, that's that's what got me uh wanting to uh bring this back. Yeah. I feel like too, the sound of this band, it's kind of it It's got a certain timelessness to it in that, you know, it sounds contemporary, it sounds comfortable with things that are out today, but it also, you know, twenty years ago it would have as well, you know what I mean.

2:53 There's a certain there's just a timelessness to it where in any era, I feel like these songs would succeed on that. You know, Like you said, getting your head bob and all whatnot. You know, it's just really good stuff. Thanks you. I'm a big fan of like old school sounding stuff. I grew up on eighties rock and metal Azzi, Yeah, Group, Pantera, stuff like that. To me, all that stuff was more appealing personally than what I listened to nowadays. But there's a lot of good monitor bands, so we try to keep bringing like that old school influence, but we also kind of modernize it a little bit.

3:23 Yeah, definitely of the idea. Yeah, yeah, and how are these songs recorded? What's the production like? Because you know, like they sound amazing, just not only in terms of the songs themselves, but sonically they sound really good. It's all the amps are miked up, all the drums are miked up, and that's really kind of it. You know, we just we do it in a we do it digitally, but also try to stay as analog as possible when doing it. And wow, no kidding. So it's kind of the idea you do it all yourselves.

3:56 I do a lot of the tracking. Yeah. On our EP of the Storm, I did all the we did all the tracking. I sent it to a guy named John Felino and Latham, New York, and he mixed it all okay yesterday and then we got back and then our old drummer, Tyler Shoemaker, who now plays in a group called The Broken View out of Upstate New York. And they're really talented as well. Him and I did Island that EP together and he did all the mixing and master and he went to school for it and yeah, and that was a lot of la guitar layers and okay, just weeks on it and making just six songs.

4:29 Okay, yeah, because it I mean, every everything you sent me it sounds great. It sounds like it was, you know, done in a million dollar studio. So that's thanks. But we're you know, but with the technology that we have now, we're fortunate to really be able to I mean, there's so many different ways you can approach recording and have it sound really good. You know. So has any of the so have you guys written anything? Are you in the process of writing together? Because obviously these songs were all already written when you came into the band.

4:58 Rich is that all? But so many we actually wrote that together? Yeah? Oh cool, Okay, that's the newest one that we've done together. Is so many excellent? Yeah, yeah, well we'll play that in a little bit too. I'm uh looking forward to sharing that with everybody, but I assume there's more in the works. Absolutely, Oh, yeah, definitely. We are putting our nose to the grindstone and uh trying to uh, you know, give give some good stuff. Now, what about what the other guys are they involved in the writing or is that they're gonna they're gonna be I couldn't imagine.

5:29 I'm not wanting to be, you know. Yeah, an idea kind of spurs off of one of our heads, like with the you know, a riff or something or a melody in the head, and then yeah, we'd present it to them and yeah, absolutely, Yeah. Is it weird for you? Is it? Is it weird playing some of these songs with with a whole new configuration of the band or does it feel like a normal sort of evolution of things or one thing I've noticed with our new drummers, he kind of puts a little twist on some of them. He plays the parts pretty much precisely, but like there's times he might just put a little twist on things.

6:04 And also and I'm fine with that. Yeah, at first it's yeah, I can't. It was a little like this is a little different, But as time went on. You know, it didn't feel like it was really any different. It felt really fun. And also just to add those little twist on the songs, like when we go and play them live, yeah, hear them, and that's that's kind of neat. I was. I was in a band years ago that went through a few different drummers, and I always found it kind of you know, every drummer would who would come in would kind of put their own twist on things, and I for me, it kind of kept it exciting, you know, because yeah, the songs would feel a little bit different, but it was kind of like, Okay, the song we've been playing for five years now, it feels new in a way, you know.

6:42 So so I know what you mean about how it it. You know, you get used to it being different than it actually kind of sounds good, you know, with with that little bit of a twist on it. But it must be surreal, right to some of these songs who have played them in the old version in a different not really different parts of the country the Northeast, but still you know, in New York and then to and then to be doing them here it is so but you haven't you haven't recorded yet with this new with the full band, or have you just a song so many colors?

7:13 Gotcha? Gotcha? Okay? Are you guys playing out a lot to play a lot of shows. We played a little bit on this this year, and we started playing out a little bit last year. I know we're playing Swarmy Fest on November fourth at Jewel. Yeah. We played Jewel a couple of times and we always have a good time there. Yeah. And uh and also one thing I remember thinking when was we have a song called Awakening that we played. I remember thinking to myself hearing it through their sound system, just that thunderous sound.

7:39 See, playing live too is a little different than the recording. You hear more of that, more of the punch and everything. Yeah. So yeah, really excited to do that. But yeah, once that's done, we'll probably get some more new songs written and then just keep looking up shows. Yeah. Yeah, we're looking forward to Swarmy Fest. Uh. You know, Jenny and I will be there representing the show, and uh, I can't wait. Really looking forward to that. Yeah, definitely can't wait. I can't wait to get up there and uh, you know, have some fun and uh get the crowd moving, you know.

8:06 Yeah for sure. Where where are you guys from? Where where are you? Webon We're both from Webdon's. It's actually funny. He's only like five minutes down the road for me. There are two guys live in Claremont, New Hampshire, Okay for rehearse every week? Oh I got you? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I used to. I used to occasionally go up to West Lebanon when there was a Strawberries there years ago, and I used to I used to go to work up there occasionally to help out. But yeah, so what's that like an hour from here or yeah, yeah, it's about an hour.

8:37 Yeah for sure. Now are there are there up up there? Like what's the what's the situation? Like as far as venues up there? Are there places to are? There a lot of places to play or I find if you're in a cover band doing like classic rock or a country band, you know there's Sawhole Pub and there's uh, there's probably I don't know, a couple of breweries up there. Yeah, going toward Vermont, I find that it's it's better for that kind of thing. Yeah, we do a couple of covers, but we're not that type of band that plays you know, yeah, three sets, and we had we did start off doing that, but we like playing our own stuff and incorporating a couple.

9:12 We like playing with other bands as well on the line up. Yeah, yeah, that's kind of We find that that's more funs. You find more people and even if the venues empty, at least you're playing to the band, right Yeah, yeah, oh, I know, I know all about how that works. That's for sure. That's for sure. Are the Do you guys have any particular bands that you play a lot of shows with? You know, sometimes, I mean it kind of happens organically by accident, really, but sometimes bands have certain bands that they just sort of team up with do a lot of shows with Trading Tombstones.

9:40 Oh, I love them, But those guys that they're one song. I talked to Alex a lot on Facebook. They're one song caught my eyes out. That's like one of my go to, like daily songs I listened to and yeah, I just love And then there's a new one he's just released. But yeah, no, I find we I find we end up with those guys a couple of times, and I feel like there's another one I can't I can't remember. Oh, yeah, I can't remember their name, but I can I see them right in front of me. I know, I know. It's grain tune solves one Jay Fed in the Facebook live chat, he's in Vermont.

10:12 He says, you live close to Vermont. Have you ever considered growing beards? Well, Rich, you've got quite the beard going there. I'm gonna say, yeah, not not as much as Jay Fed is one of those guys with a big long beard. And Aaron you've got somewhat of a beard. I had a full on and then now I'm working, I'm going to grow up back. No shave novembers around the corner. Yeah, definitely, so mine will be a little bit bushier, a little bit longer. Yeah. We all have facial hair in the band. Yeah, most of it.

10:39 We're all bald, except Nick has long hair. Yea. Oh really yeah, yeah, I got hair. It's there, It's just under my hat. That's what I tell people to We have Aaron and Rich from my last mile here in studio with us. Where does the name come from, by the way, Gosh, that's that's a good question. I think our old drummer, Tyler, I think he came up with it. We were just sitting at a pizza shop one time, and he'd said something along the lines of if i'd walk, i'd walk some mile or I'd walk a bunch of miles to do this or something, and then he was like, oh that, And then the other guy with us he was like, oh, that'd be your last mile.

11:19 Then I just mile it. I'm like, how's that for a band name? And they're like, that's not bad. Once we got we went through a couple other ones. Once we got some artwork back, we Oh, I want to say settled, But what what were the other ones? I love rejected band names. That's like my favorite thing. What like what what my last name? West Fall was one. I remember that. Okay. I didn't want to do that, really, I didn't want to play the whole solo artist thing or the Yeah, I mean west Fall is not a bad name for a band.

11:46 But but I can see where, Yeah, you didn't want to you wouldn't want to do that necessarily rejected. Actually we had deviation for a little bit. Yeah, and what do we have that for? Like at least month, didn't we at least a year? Was it a year? Oh? Really? Yeah? Like a month? Oh? Okay, Oh, wow, think that. I don't think there were a lot I can't remember. Yeah, yeah, yeah, my last Mile is a good name. Thanks, I dig it. It's got a certain gravitas. Now, how many do you guys have a full album or have you just put out singles?

12:21 At this point? To two EPs? Two EPs comes out? I came out in twenty seventeen and then Island was twenty twenty. Okay, that has the sound changed over time? I mean, obviously it's it's had to have changed a little bit because you're you're playing with different guys, But I mean, has a has it the sound and style overall changed at all? Or vocally? Probably a little bit because I'm not twenty two anymore. They're pretty high, but I still but I still like to hit high notes. I don't like to scream much.

12:48 But we were trying to push, like so many callers is a lot. I think that push is going to push us more into a heavier, kind of a darker direction. Yeah, which is kind of what we want for this next ep. Where where are are you? Are you from? Originally Aaron? Because yeah, you don't sound like you're from here necessarily, No, I'm originally from Saratoga, New York. Okay, okay? And Rich did you grow up here? Yep, I grew up here. I been in New Hampshire all my life. Okay, well, very good. Let's uh yeah, let's play what was the name of that song?

13:20 The one, the one you guys were just talking about? Uh? Oh, I found it so many colors. We should uh, we should give this a listen. And then so what what should we know about this? This is the one you guys wrote together, Is that correct? Yes? Okay? Cool? And so this is the first one you guys wrote together, and anything else we should know about this? This this must be the newest one, right, yeah, not our current drummer Mike Goslin, but are We had a guy who was with us for a little bit, Paul Picard, Yeah, who also plays in Robin V group around the area.

13:54 And I think I think there's another group you might play with. But he actually played drums on this song. Oh okay, And we sent it to a guy named Ian McDonald in New York and he did the mixing mastering. So we we did all the tracking together and then Paul did the drums on and Paul's also in the music video for it. Oh cool. And then there was another guy named Chris ray Jeski who actually came in and played lead guitar on it. Oh okay, cool cool. By the way, with drummers, doesn't it seem like every drummer is in like multiple like drummers basis five, five or six different bands.

14:24 Oh yeah, I have a theory about that. I think the I think the reason for that is, you know, when you're growing up and you develop an interest in playing a musical instrument and you have to talk to your parents about it, you know, the last thing they want to encourage you to take up his drums. Absolutely, So that's that's my theory. So every drummer isn't and bass players are an I demand too, but drummers, like, it's just it's crazy. Every every yeah, every drummer I know is in like twelve bands.

14:47 All right, let's give this a listen. This is really good. This is so many colors. This is my last mile here. Check this out. I'm the onst. They call him Serene, I'm a darning mother. Call him Santata. You I'm the bisam on my dreams. Suspect you, Betty Brett, you talting not the guy. I'm an angel on your shoulder. I'm the one who can show you I am one and you should not save no one on my dad batter. You cannot bet. There is nothing you can ju for yourself. Pressuring back as you coach you to hell.

15:51 You should the slow go. You should not before I show your sob con there's somebody.

16:02 This isn't dozing. I'm like, dn' sappen? Give me so many go h this is sound, it says, it doesn't like that is legit?

16:30 Ohbout your best friend and till the ya I started by your side with you and noth again. It's not my boy. You's all that sign you are not forget. There must be sobdy to say so to my hand and you descend into help. I hate to say how they told you so you're try so far, but so many go. There's so many us. It's a sound that so many girls you MISTICI a SESSI thousand stretch they do. It's on so many go, so many gas, it says, some does it like that sound? Down it not be so many? Do please you misticize its as it like the stretch they go breaking sound where nowhere no stores.

18:25 Somebody so sizes this says it does it's not so many guts, you're exercises that says some docias my child, there's so many guts excidicizes this sense, does it? I'm likes a man so many guns? We are excides sensive, doc. That's my chimney gods, My last Mile. And the track is called so Many Colors. That is great, really really catchy. We've got a couple of the guys from the band here, but we've got we've got Aaron and Rich from the band My Last Mile in studio with us. Yeah, that's a great track, guys, So many Colors.

19:32 And so that's now the newer material that you're writing together. Is it similar? Is it? Because that's I think that's the heaviest of the ones that you sent me. Is that Are these are the new ones kind of heavy like that? Or do they vary or I would say yes, they definitely will get heavier as they come. Yeah, but if they're still they're in the works, yeah for sure. And and Aaron, are you all the lyrics still are you the Yeah? Primarily yeah, I mean I get you know, subject matter. I'll get him influenced and such, But usually I kind of write like I'll have a vocal melody in my head and I'll just you know, add the lyrics to that kind of Yeah.

20:14 Uh, is there any kind of a theme to your lyrics, any kind of an overarching theme or approach or some of it's personal? A lot of it's actually personal, But I kind of just write. Again for me, like songwritings more of a spur of the moment kind of thing. If it's in my head, if it's something I can nod my head to and that I really like, you know, that's kind of where I think, oh, this might actually be a good song. And so as far as the theme goes, not so much. It's kind of just just based on what I'm feeling, you know, certain things I've experienced in the past, certain things I'm experiencing now.

20:52 That's kind of where it all comes from. Sure, sure, Uh. We have a question for you in the Facebook latchata Isaac Banks, who is from uh I actly where he is in the South Greensboro, North Carolina. He says, speaking of interesting questions, my last mile, how are you fellas, what's your favorite hoodie? And the Blowfish song let her cry, I'm doing great, it's awesome. Thank you for asking that. I don't think I've actually listened to Hoody and the Blowfish, so you mean recently or ever ever? Fair enough, But I'm doing well.

21:27 Thank you for asking. I was waiting for him to say wagon wheel. Oh goodness, let her cry. That was a huge uh that was a huge song. My god. Yeah, they were. They were the biggest thing out there in the mid nineties. Have you guys opened for you guys open for any national acts that have come through the area or not here. In twenty seventeen, Mile Last Mile did do a warp tour appearance on Long Island. Oh no kidding. Yeah, it was like a local you know, we're the local band, sure from way up north. I got picked and we went.

22:00 It was like fifteen twenty minutes, but was well worth it. Oh that's cool. I remember that year they had I prevail Gosh, Hate Reed was somewhere nice still maybe Chelsea Grin might have been August Burns Red. It was a much heavier year for warp for and then the the following year in twenty eighteen, that was the last year they did it, and then they stopped doing it. I was kind of bummed about that. Yeah, twelve, So twenty eighteen was the last Warp tour. Huh, I know twenty nineteen they did select shows, but like, okay, yeah, gotcha, gotcha.

22:34 Did you get to see Hate Breed while you were there? Absolutely? Yeah. Yeah. I used to be in a band called First Shove and we used to play. We used to cover. We did very few covers, but we we we would do a last Breath, which was honestly my favorite part of our set. It's so quick though, it goes by so fast, It's such a short song. But just the adrenaline of playing that. Yeah, but I've never seen them live. That must have been cool. That must have been That must have been cool. Now what what what brought you to New Hampshire?

23:02 Like, did you did you guys know each other prior to you come in here? No, my fiance lord you here. Yeah, I was living in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina at the time, and just oh we met and yeah I've been here ever since and we were still together that How long were how long did you live in Myrtle Beach? A year? Okay? Yeah, I have family down there, and I I thought why not. But then I realized I'm not a Southern, especially this time of year. I'm very I like the seasons a lot. I like this time of year is like my favorite time of year.

23:37 And I felt like when I was down there, just you know, the leaves never change, like at Christmas time. It's cool, But at Christmas time you'll be driving through like a neighborhood and you'll see like all the Christmas decorations and then just a palm tree and grass. It's just not the same. I mean, seeing the snow and in decoration. I guess see, I'm the opposite. I would love that. I love that. I love a spring in summer. My times, I I don't like. I don't like fall because well, because of what it leads to the winter and on that is true.

24:08 Yeah, it gets colder and then yeah, I don't want to do this. Yeah, Like I think I think I would do fine down south. How about you, rich, you think you'd you do all right down there? No, because I'm been in New Hampshire too long,

24:21 i'd probably like, yeah, me too, That's why I think. That's why I think I would do well down there. No, But I do love New Hampshire too. There's a lot to there's a lot to love here. Oh yeah, definitely hunting fishing. That's that's my game toward this time. Yeah. See, I don't hunter fish. I don't do any outdoorsy things. I'm terrified of deer ticks and there's wild animals. You know, you could be eaten by a bear or a mountain lion or something. It's just true. The blair Witch is out in the woods.

24:47 I think I saw a movie about that once, and that's that's very frightening. But no, in the winter, I'd like to be able to just teleport from one room, one warm place to another, you know, I think that'd be great. But no, But in the summertime, it's it's beautiful here certainly. Now everything every everything that the band has is all it's all up on the streaming services, right, it's on Spotify and everything, Modify, YouTube, iTunes, gosh, I haven't even looked at iTunes, and it's on Ideas. Yeah, I think, yeah, we use a distro kid and yeah, it's all on every streaming service now for those who don't know, so distro Kid obviously, how do you find them?

25:29 Is that a good service? I hear mixed reviews from people. I've never personally had a problem with them. Yeah, it's just you know, you pay X amount a year, Yeah, and sometimes you might pay a little bit more if you want it, like you know, if you want your EP, your album or single or whatever out on a certain day. Yeah. Yeah, I personally have never had a problem with them. I mainly only use it though, to just upload tracks and maybe check stats and little are things. But yeah, I personally never had a problem with them.

25:55 Now, do you guys have any physical copies of your CDs? I get I get such varied answers on this because it seems like to a lot of artists that physical media is still really important, which surprises me sometimes. And then to a lot of artists it's like what what physical media? Why what y're we in? You know, So I encounter very different attitudes about it. So I'm curious how you guys feel about it, and if if you have any actual physical discs, I'd say they will be coming at some point, but we normally just have our stuff on Spotify and yeah, YouTube and iTunes and all that stuff.

26:33 Yeah, yeah, I think the storm is out back when that was when we released that. We did. We did a couple of gigs in Albany and sarah Tooga, New York. We I think we made a couple of copies and yeah, I think at the time, gosh, you might have used CD baby maybe and they they made all the copies and a little of the artwork and a sleeve and put the disc in. But yeah, honestly, I'm a big fan of physical music. I'm actually really a big fan of DVDs. I collect horror DVDs, like that's my collector's item.

27:03 I love horror films and DVDs, and that's my that's my thing. I love a DVD. Yeah, especially if like your Internet goes out or something. You have your player, you can plug it in, you know what I mean, You're not just sitting there bored in the dark all day. Yeah, you know. But for us though, I at the moment, no, we don't have any physical anything physical. Yeah. It's interesting how how different artists approach it differently. I mean a lot of some artists now too well. I mean obviously all the majors, you know, they put everything out on vinyl.

27:31 But I've I've even met the local artists from the area who will do like a run of vinyl. But it's apparently, from what I'm told, it's extremely expensive to do it. It's really cost prohibitive. Yeah. Yeah, it's the biggest mistake I ever made. I've had a whole bunch of vinyl records, probably about the size of the desk I'm sitting in front of it. Yeah. I shipped them all to my friend in Texas and for three hundred dollars, and I was just so all of those things. They're heavy and they pick up space.

27:59 Just one of those things I wish I never got rid of. Oh really, Yeah, how much did it cost a ship? About one hundred and fifty I think I did one hundred, so that was very expensive. Yeah, I can imagine. Yeah, Yeah, they're just heavy, right, Oh yeah, yeah absolutely. I was shocked a few years ago. I was on band camp and when I really this was maybe five or six years ago, so this trend may have already passed. But I was shocked to see some artists selling cassette tapes like cassettes were back, you know, and and it's like, I mean, I guess if you're a fan of tape hiss, you know, that's cool.

28:34 But but I was. I was just shocked. And the first one I found, I was like, Oh, is this a joke? Is this? Like I realized, I know a lot of these artists are are are selling cassettes, and of course most people who buy them probably never actually play them. They're just buying them because they like that artist. And oh it's school to have a cassette, you know. But it's it's just it's fascinating to me to see what technology comes and goes, what what sticks around that you don't think is going to stick around, and and what does end up going away that you think is going to be here forever.

29:05 You know. It's it's it's very interesting to me. But uh, now, so as far as so you've got you've got two EPs, and then do you have any singles that are not on that are only singles that are not on one of the EPs as of right now, it's uh, it's so many colors. We did a shine Down cover a couple of years ago, and that I think also we released maybe as a single. Yeah, oh okay, but we uh yeah, so many colors that will probably go on to our next EP, may not if we have a different if the songs are in a completely different theme than that, yeah, or if they're even if we decide to go a different route with mixing or whatever, then obviously we would probably just leave it as a single and go on go forth with that.

29:48 But as of right now, mainly So Many Colors is the only one that's a single. What songs are on? What? What Shinedown song? Did you cover? Sound of Madness? Okay, Oh, that's a great song. I I when Shinedown was really big, I got I got pretty sick of them because what was the really big song? Second Chance? Right? Oh? Yeah? Was it that one? Or was there was there another one that was really big? No? I think it was Secon Yeah it was second Chance. Oh god. I grew to hate that song because I heard it so much.

30:20 But then I heard Sound of Madness and I was like, Okay, I like them again.

30:25 That's a great track. That's a good album, the whole album. I've never heard the whole thing. Is it good? But I can I can imagine you guys doing that song, because I can. I can hear it in my head with your voice. He's a hard guy to replicate, is he? Yeah? Really hard? Yes? Are they still around? Yes, shine down. Yeah. Sometimes it's hard to keep track of who's still. Like I just found out the other day the godsmack is is going to be uh playing I think at the SNeW Arena and I was like, I didn't even know they were touring too.
