5:10 Speaker 2: how you were going to take her last name, which

5:12 Speaker 2: is unusual in our in our culture. But you you

5:15 Speaker 2: didn't really like your name.

5:17 Speaker 7: No, and I liked I know how much she liked

5:20 Speaker 7: her name. Yeah, and uh, I don't know. It just

5:23 Speaker 7: felt right. Yeah, I felt right. And technically I'm still

5:27 Speaker 7: I'm not I'm technically handings now, but I'm technically in

5:29 Speaker 7: Polmont still. I have my We were just on our

5:32 Speaker 7: honeymoon and I didn't want to have to deal with

5:34 Speaker 7: changing my name and then the passport stuff.

5:36 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah.

5:38 Speaker 7: So we ended up going I have my appointment with

5:42 Speaker 7: the Social Security this Monday. Okay, that's the first step.

5:45 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, is that a Is it a hassle?

5:49 Speaker 2: It must be yeah.

5:51 Speaker 8: Yeah, Well when you get married, it's not as much.

5:56 Speaker 7: So it's on my document, It's on my marriage certificates.

6:00 Speaker 7: So at least I have that as proof for change. Okay,

6:02 Speaker 7: but then I have to do so security, and I

6:04 Speaker 7: have to do my driver's license, and then from what

6:06 Speaker 7: I've understood, I have to do my bank accounts. And

6:08 Speaker 7: that's actually where it's like the most pain in the butt,

6:10 Speaker 7: oh is it?

6:11 Speaker 8: Yeahah yeah, and now you have to prove so much more.

6:17 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a little harder, but you know it's worth it. Yeah.

6:20 Speaker 2: Well there you go.

6:21 Speaker 3: Well I don't blame you. I don't blame you.

6:23 Speaker 2: Yeah, lovely, I thank you. So we should talk about

6:27 Speaker 2: so the new ep A dress sharp. Yeah this this

6:31 Speaker 2: is really new, right, this just came out, came out

6:33 Speaker 2: on New Year's Eve. Oh so this this is as

6:35 Speaker 2: new as a guest. Oh yeah it was.

6:37 Speaker 9: You know.

6:37 Speaker 7: Twenty twenty five was literally the best year of my life.

6:41 Speaker 10: Yeah.

6:42 Speaker 7: I normally don't say that, but it was just I

6:45 Speaker 7: mean I saw both Paul Simon and Paul McCartney in

6:47 Speaker 7: one year, Like, yeah, you can't really get much better

6:50 Speaker 7: than that. Yeah, But so I just wanted to end

6:53 Speaker 7: the year on a high note. And this is an

6:54 Speaker 7: album I was working with with a producer. His name

6:57 Speaker 7: is Andrew Morrissey, and I've it was something that I

7:00 Speaker 7: always wanted to try and go out of my comfort zone,

7:02 Speaker 7: especially compared to my last album, which was much more

7:05 Speaker 7: of a low fi kind of organic.

7:09 Speaker 2: Produced album.

7:10 Speaker 7: This is kind of the exact opposite where it's like,

7:13 Speaker 7: how how much layer can we add to it? How

7:16 Speaker 7: much gloss can we put on the song? I'm really

7:19 Speaker 7: proud of it, to be honest with you.

7:20 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I love that song all the times.

7:24 Speaker 2: It's kind of you know, it's pop, but it's like

7:26 Speaker 2: it's like alternative pop. It's like you know it, yeah,

7:30 Speaker 2: it's it's it's interesting. It's a surprise first of all

7:35 Speaker 2: because when I when I played it the first time,

7:37 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, this is different for him. But

7:39 Speaker 2: also this is really interesting. The production is really interesting,

7:43 Speaker 2: and I did want to ask you about that especially.

7:45 Speaker 2: I love I love what happens when the guitar comes

7:47 Speaker 2: in at the end solo. Yeah yeah, yeah, I had

7:50 Speaker 2: you know.

7:51 Speaker 7: There was a while where I was purchasing from Manchester

7:54 Speaker 7: Music Mill sponsor and not sponsored. I was really getting

7:58 Speaker 7: like a bunch of youth gear and I had this

8:00 Speaker 7: Paul with Demarcio pickups that I don't have anymore. And

8:03 Speaker 7: what's funny is the guitar actually had a malfunction on it,

8:06 Speaker 7: like there was some circuit or ground that wasn't attached

8:09 Speaker 7: to it, right, Yeah, So it just had this weird

8:11 Speaker 7: trebly in and out kind of sound, and I just

8:15 Speaker 7: I stacked it with some uh, I forget what overdrive

8:19 Speaker 7: I used, but I just I had this marshal and

8:22 Speaker 7: overdrive and we cranked it up in the studio. Yeah,

8:24 Speaker 7: and I just kind of played a guitar solo over

8:26 Speaker 7: and that's what you hear. That's why that huge feedbacks

8:29 Speaker 7: at the end. It was so it was just so loud.

8:32 Speaker 7: The other thing I'll say about that song is it

8:35 Speaker 7: was actually I wrote it because I have an obsession

8:39 Speaker 7: with like Eurodrans tracks from the early two thousands, Yeah,

8:42 Speaker 7: like Cascatta's every Time we Touched and stuff like that,

8:45 Speaker 7: and I was like, I want to write a song

8:46 Speaker 7: like that on the acoustic guitar. And that's what we were,

8:51 Speaker 7: you know, I don't know if we necessarily got there, yeah,

8:53 Speaker 7: but that was what your initial inspiration was.

8:55 Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, is that is that the case with all

8:59 Speaker 2: these on the EP? You write them on the on

9:01 Speaker 2: the guitar first, they're all they're all on guitar first.

9:04 Speaker 2: I can't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't do it otherwise.

9:06 Speaker 7: So the way that worked was I would send him

9:09 Speaker 7: Andrew the songs and then he would kind of layer

9:13 Speaker 7: it with production. Then I would go in one day

9:15 Speaker 7: and we would do vocal layers together and create all

9:17 Speaker 7: these kind of stacks on them. Okay, So it was

9:20 Speaker 7: a real collaboration, and uh, it was a It's a

9:23 Speaker 7: beautiful rapport and relationship that I'm so grateful to have.

9:27 Speaker 7: So shout out to Andrew. He's an amazing man.

9:29 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, he did did a great job. Now how

9:31 Speaker 2: did you connect with him? As far as I'm producing

9:32 Speaker 2: the EP?

9:33 Speaker 3: Uh?

9:34 Speaker 7: I think I posted on Facebook saying like I'm looking

9:37 Speaker 7: for a producer. And then Dan Fallon, I don't know

9:39 Speaker 7: if you know that name, great man. He he he's

9:44 Speaker 7: Andrew's dance drummer. Andrew's a multi instrumentalist. The guy can

9:48 Speaker 7: play drums like. He's so talented that everything he does.

9:52 Speaker 7: And I sent him a song, the first song that

9:54 Speaker 7: we recorded, which is called the crowd and I wanted

9:58 Speaker 7: like a no such thing by John Air kind of

10:00 Speaker 7: song and held it in my opinion.

10:02 Speaker 2: And yeah, yeah, Dan Fallon he's been oh run like

10:06 Speaker 2: thieves yeaheah. They were on the show. Yeah, and Jenny

10:09 Speaker 2: and I went to see them live too. Yeah, really

10:10 Speaker 2: really good? Was that at the BNH stage?

10:13 Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, yeah, I missed that show unfortunately, but I

10:15 Speaker 7: really I'm a huge fan of Dan.

10:17 Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, all very talented. Yeah, yeah absolutely. And

10:22 Speaker 2: then why why an EP? Because Schema was your previous

10:25 Speaker 2: release was a full album? So why now? Why the

10:27 Speaker 2: choice to do an EP this time? I'm always curious

10:29 Speaker 2: about because there's so many different ways to approach it now. Yeah,

10:32 Speaker 2: it's just cost Yeah.

10:34 Speaker 7: In fact, if I've the reason why I released it

10:37 Speaker 7: as an EP and not as individual singles is because

10:40 Speaker 7: I was so burnt out from this year that I

10:43 Speaker 7: kind of needed to. I've been taking a break, Like

10:46 Speaker 7: I came on here as kind of like it was

10:48 Speaker 7: a spontaneous women. I was like, I can't not go

10:50 Speaker 7: it's quit. Like, if the timing's just right, I had

10:53 Speaker 7: an EP release, let's do this.

10:54 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. But the truth is is, like I haven't

10:57 Speaker 2: been really very musically pushed okay lately.

11:04 Speaker 7: Yeah, And so I just wanted to release it because

11:06 Speaker 7: I knew if I didn't release it, then it would

11:08 Speaker 7: always be out there in the zeitgeist. Then I would

11:10 Speaker 7: be thinking about.

11:10 Speaker 2: All the time.

11:11 Speaker 7: So, yeah, decided to push it out there. And uh,

11:14 Speaker 7: but you know, the record songs with higher production means

11:17 Speaker 7: there's also a higher cost when it comes to mastering

11:19 Speaker 7: and mixing. And I don't know, like albums aren't are

11:24 Speaker 7: kind of a thing of the past, aren't they.

11:26 Speaker 2: You know, I don't know to a third degree, it depends.

11:30 Speaker 2: I mean, it's all perspective sometimes because you know, a

11:35 Speaker 2: lot of our guests, a lot of them do EPs,

11:38 Speaker 2: some of them, some of them just you know, there's

11:41 Speaker 2: a sort of it's different from how I was growing up,

11:43 Speaker 2: where you know, like an album would be coming out

11:46 Speaker 2: for a single goes to radio six eight weeks, and

11:48 Speaker 2: then the album comes out and if it all goes well,

11:50 Speaker 2: you might get a second single, a third single, Whereas

11:52 Speaker 2: now what a lot of artists are doing is, you know,

11:54 Speaker 2: they call it the waterfall effect. They're releasing a series

11:56 Speaker 2: of singles that eventually become an album. Yeah, it was

11:58 Speaker 2: just kind of the inversion of that. But but I

12:01 Speaker 2: don't know some of the some of the guests we have,

12:03 Speaker 2: they really feel like like it has to be an

12:05 Speaker 2: album because that's what they grew up with or that's

12:08 Speaker 2: what it's the art. Yeah, yeah, yeah, well.

12:11 Speaker 7: And also the that's it's important to mention, like I

12:14 Speaker 7: think a lot of artists, including myself who have done it,

12:17 Speaker 7: we don't do the waterfall effects because that's how we

12:20 Speaker 7: want to release music. We do it because we live

12:23 Speaker 7: in a time of algorithmic pace production and apps, and

12:28 Speaker 7: that's how you can get your voice out there. And

12:32 Speaker 7: you know, when you see more than a thousand likes

12:34 Speaker 7: on your song, you get a dopamine high.

12:36 Speaker 2: Of course this tastes good, of course. Yeah, that's why

12:41 Speaker 2: we do it. Well, I feel like that that's probably

12:43 Speaker 2: one of the hardest things about if you're if you're

12:47 Speaker 2: someone who writes a lot of music, or if or

12:49 Speaker 2: if you write and record music and then you want

12:51 Speaker 2: to you want to share it with the world as

12:53 Speaker 2: soon as possible, right, That's there has to be you know,

12:56 Speaker 2: there's a certain discipline when you're a when you're a

12:58 Speaker 2: musician where you have to nobody ever talks about this part.

13:02 Speaker 2: But for some reason, I've been thinking about this lately

13:05 Speaker 2: a lot where you you have to you know, you

13:09 Speaker 2: create something and and if you're proud of it, you

13:12 Speaker 2: want to share it with everybody, but you can't. You

13:16 Speaker 2: have to wait, you have to be you have to

13:18 Speaker 2: be strategic about it. I mean you don't have to be.

13:20 Speaker 2: I mean you can. You can just put whatever is

13:23 Speaker 2: you know, you can do it that way, and there's

13:24 Speaker 2: nothing wrong with that, But if you want to get

13:26 Speaker 2: the most out of it, it's like you because not

13:29 Speaker 2: only do you want people to hear it, but you

13:30 Speaker 2: want as many people as possible to hear it. You

13:32 Speaker 2: want to share it with as many people as possible,

13:34 Speaker 2: which means you do have to be strategic about it.

13:36 Speaker 2: And there is a discipline that comes with that, you know. Yeah,

13:40 Speaker 2: And there's also an ego that comes with that, isn't there?

13:43 Speaker 4: M m?

13:43 Speaker 2: Yeah?

13:44 Speaker 7: Because you know where is the It's the catharsis in

13:48 Speaker 7: the making of the music, or is the catharis in

13:51 Speaker 7: the population of ears?

13:53 Speaker 2: You know, right? Right?

13:55 Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely think about that. I mean, I've been kind

14:00 Speaker 7: of transitioning. I'm almost done with grad school, so I've

14:02 Speaker 7: been transitioning into my job.

14:04 Speaker 2: Of oh therapist, congratulations, thanks you.

14:06 Speaker 7: And so I think about this stuff a lot now, Like, Yeah,

14:11 Speaker 7: one of the reasons why I slowed down was because

14:13 Speaker 7: I had to ask myself, like, how good, how healthy

14:15 Speaker 7: is this for me to like do like three shows

14:18 Speaker 7: a week and like gues, the crowds are so happy

14:20 Speaker 7: to giving you all this positive feedback, but it's like

14:25 Speaker 7: it's hard to explain, but there there's a structural balance

14:29 Speaker 7: that could be a little bit tricky with that, you know,

14:31 Speaker 7: especially with someone like myself who can have an ego

14:35 Speaker 7: and I mean we all do and maybe has an

14:38 Speaker 7: awareness of it and wants to keep it in check.

14:40 Speaker 2: Right right, Yeah? Absolutely? Are you Have you been surprised

14:46 Speaker 2: at all about the the end result of this, because

14:49 Speaker 2: this is a this is a departure for you, this

14:51 Speaker 2: ep like going into these songs, any of these songs.

14:55 Speaker 2: Did you at the end of it? Did you go, Wow,

14:58 Speaker 2: that turned out different than I I mean, I assume

15:01 Speaker 2: you were happy with how they all turned out or

15:03 Speaker 2: you wouldn't put them out, But but were you surprised

15:05 Speaker 2: at at what they turned out to be?

15:08 Speaker 7: No, I'm really proud because I think I always wanted

15:12 Speaker 7: to do music like this, like again, like kind of poppy,

15:16 Speaker 7: kind of not overproduced but very produced. Yeah, and I

15:21 Speaker 7: feel like that I always had this insecurity of I

15:25 Speaker 7: can't do this, I'm really Yeah. So I think that

15:28 Speaker 7: doing it was a real again cathartic moment, allowing myself

15:33 Speaker 7: to say, you know, you can do whatever voice you

15:36 Speaker 7: want to have.

15:37 Speaker 2: In this world. Yeah, and you can talk about whatever

15:39 Speaker 2: you want.

15:40 Speaker 7: Yeah, and you could have opinions and think about these things.

15:44 Speaker 2: Yeah.

15:44 Speaker 7: I think I went into it knowing this is the

15:48 Speaker 7: sound I wanted to have, which was like a John

15:49 Speaker 7: Mayer meets Dave Matthews meets like kind of like in

15:55 Speaker 7: sync kind of thing. And you know it, I like

15:59 Speaker 7: it And if people don't like it, not that I

16:02 Speaker 7: have been getting really great positive response, yeah, but it's

16:05 Speaker 7: like I just don't care anymore.

16:07 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well that's the best way to approach it, right.

16:09 Speaker 7: I Mean it's nice though, because when you play a

16:11 Speaker 7: lot of gigs you don't feel that way. Sometimes you

16:14 Speaker 7: are basing your life on like, oh, I hope the

16:16 Speaker 7: audience likes me.

16:17 Speaker 2: Well, there is that idea too. I've heard Billy Joel

16:20 Speaker 2: say this, and I think I've heard Trent Reznors say

16:21 Speaker 2: this too, in different ways, but the idea that when

16:25 Speaker 2: you're creating the music in the studio, you got to

16:27 Speaker 2: create it for yourself. You can't do it to please

16:29 Speaker 2: anybody else. You have to make music that you're passionate about.

16:32 Speaker 2: But then when you go to play live, that that's

16:36 Speaker 2: then you got to be thinking about the other way.

16:38 Speaker 2: You got to be thinking about what's going to make

16:39 Speaker 2: the audience happy. Yeah, and I agree with that.

16:42 Speaker 7: I think the difference between myself and those artists is

16:46 Speaker 7: when the reason why they feel that way is because

16:48 Speaker 7: people pay like three hundred dollars a ticket, right where

16:51 Speaker 7: when I'm at a bar, I mean there, I'm getting

16:54 Speaker 7: paid just to be there.

16:55 Speaker 2: So it's it's complicated my point. Yeah, yeah, absolutely absolutely.

17:00 Speaker 2: But but so you always wanted to do an EP

17:02 Speaker 2: like this or something like this? Yeah?

17:04 Speaker 7: Absolutely, I always wanted to do it like an early

17:07 Speaker 7: two thousands pop record, No kidding, Yeah, still do. I

17:09 Speaker 7: mean I'm actually going back into the studio next month,

17:12 Speaker 7: and oh wow, yeah I want it.

17:14 Speaker 2: Uh.

17:14 Speaker 7: It's funny as I get older because and I'm not

17:19 Speaker 7: like an amazing guitar player any means but like I

17:21 Speaker 7: have my finesse. Yeah, and I find that my writing

17:26 Speaker 7: becomes less focused on that as I get older, Like

17:29 Speaker 7: I'm much more interested in, like, how can I use

17:32 Speaker 7: the Cowboy chords in a way that's kind of new

17:34 Speaker 7: and refreshing but still like very relaxing.

17:39 Speaker 2: Yeah, to do it for me?

17:40 Speaker 10: Yeah?

17:40 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's interesting about to your earlier work, you know,

17:45 Speaker 2: because we've well you've played live in studio too, but

17:47 Speaker 2: we've also played studio tracks from Schema and and at

17:51 Speaker 2: that time, you were going for that kind of lo fi,

17:54 Speaker 2: which is not easy to pull off necessarily because when

17:57 Speaker 2: you know, when we say lo fi, you know, don't

18:00 Speaker 2: just mean you know, because someone who hasn't heard it

18:02 Speaker 2: might think, oh, so, what is it just demos that

18:05 Speaker 2: don't sound that great or whatever, But no, there's an

18:07 Speaker 2: art to getting that sound too, to actually doing it right.

18:14 Speaker 2: And I always thought that was you know, ambitious, you know,

18:20 Speaker 2: on your part to do that and and and the

18:22 Speaker 2: result was great, you know.

18:23 Speaker 7: You know, I always liked like artists like Elliott Smith, who, like,

18:26 Speaker 7: you know, his first three albums are very low five,

18:29 Speaker 7: but then he did Figure eight and he did XO

18:32 Speaker 7: and those are highly produced Records. Yeah, you know, I

18:36 Speaker 7: didn't want to do the same thing twice. Yeah, And

18:39 Speaker 7: I actually tried doing that. I went to a studio

18:41 Speaker 7: and I recorded. I tried to do another schema, and

18:44 Speaker 7: it just felt it. It's not that it felt ingenuine.

18:47 Speaker 7: It just felt very repetition.

18:49 Speaker 2: Really.

18:50 Speaker 7: Yeah, like I felt like I'm here before one of

18:52 Speaker 7: the things that there was a song that came out

18:54 Speaker 7: of that, which is called Stacy's Song that's on Spotify

18:56 Speaker 7: and that I'm I love that song, but.

19:00 Speaker 2: I don't know. I it's like, you.

19:02 Speaker 7: Know, once you now that I've tasted production, it's hard

19:06 Speaker 7: to go back from it, right right, It'd be hard

19:10 Speaker 7: that I know what my voice sounds like with you know, orchestration.

25:22 Speaker 2: how did that come about? You're you're collaborating with her

25:24 Speaker 2: on that song?

25:25 Speaker 7: We've been We just hit it off right away. Yeah

25:29 Speaker 7: we Where did we first meet? I have no memory

25:33 Speaker 7: of how we first met. I'm sure she does. But

25:36 Speaker 7: we did a show together in Wilton, New Hampshire at

25:40 Speaker 7: place called the Listening Room with Darling Hill.

25:42 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and we just we've started.

25:46 Speaker 7: I was like, I loved her voice to me, it's

25:49 Speaker 7: original and really kind of complimentary towards my own kind

25:54 Speaker 7: of style. And I asked if she would do and

25:56 Speaker 7: she said of course, and she was. She helped write

26:00 Speaker 7: it with me. We did some like webcam sessions together

26:03 Speaker 7: to kind of discuss certain arrangements, and ye, she came

26:09 Speaker 7: to the she came to Andrew's place, and we really

26:11 Speaker 7: just banged it out and lyrically. It had to be

26:15 Speaker 7: about something that we both kind of agree with, and

26:19 Speaker 7: the songs kind of about are dislike for certain things

26:23 Speaker 7: in the music business.

26:25 Speaker 2: Yeah, so interesting. Yeah, yeah, so.

26:29 Speaker 7: The I'm not I won't explain it on there, but

26:32 Speaker 7: all I'll say is the title of the song is

26:34 Speaker 7: a bit of a hidden message.

26:35 Speaker 2: Okay, okay when you talk about like things that that

26:40 Speaker 2: you both don't like in the music business, like what

26:42 Speaker 2: do you mean?

26:42 Speaker 11: Like what?

26:43 Speaker 3: Uh?

26:43 Speaker 2: I think both of us.

26:44 Speaker 7: Were really frustrated with the fact that, you know, as

26:48 Speaker 7: a musician, especially in a local town, I want to

26:52 Speaker 7: if I'm booking a show with someone, I want to

26:54 Speaker 7: have a relationship with the venue, And unfortunately you can't

27:00 Speaker 7: do that with a lot of places around here because

27:02 Speaker 7: they work with other people. Right, So it's like there's

27:06 Speaker 7: a middle man, and then you're giving this middleman some

27:09 Speaker 7: money and for what why am I giving you money?

27:12 Speaker 2: I don't understand that.

27:14 Speaker 7: It was about that and things that I've done, you know,

27:17 Speaker 7: so like it was just it was a song about frustration.

27:20 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, that makes sense. By the way, I just

27:23 Speaker 2: as you were talking to it just occurred to me

27:24 Speaker 2: because we had had kat Ivy on the show. I

27:27 Speaker 2: think we met her through you, right or did we

27:29 Speaker 2: mean or something? I like, I like to send people

27:32 Speaker 2: your way because does she kind of live out your

27:35 Speaker 2: way too? Isn't she from that close to here? Lounderry?

27:39 Speaker 2: Oh okay? Oh yeah, very okay, Yeah, but I think

27:42 Speaker 2: we met her through you. Yeah, so that that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, no,

27:47 Speaker 2: that that came out great, that's that's yeah, that's a

27:51 Speaker 2: that's a wonderful song. Thank you, absolutely absolutely. Now, So

27:55 Speaker 2: what's like, what does this next year look like for

27:58 Speaker 2: you as far as playing shows? Are you to be uh,

28:01 Speaker 2: you're gonna be doing a lot of shows or doesn't know? Yeah,

28:03 Speaker 2: because you mentioned you were a little burnt out. Yeah

28:06 Speaker 2: this past year.

28:07 Speaker 7: Yeah, I did like one hundred and sixty shows last year. Yeah,

28:09 Speaker 7: like two three hour shows. Wow, I did there. There

28:12 Speaker 7: was one day where I had four shows in a row,

28:14 Speaker 7: and I think most of them are three hours long.

28:16 Speaker 2: Wait, so for four shows in one day or yeah,

28:20 Speaker 2: four shows and four shows in one day, yeah, like

28:23 Speaker 2: two farmers' markets in the morning and then two shows

28:25 Speaker 2: in the afternoon. Good lord. Yeah, it must have been

28:27 Speaker 2: in the summertime, right, it was summertime. Yeah, yeah, that's

28:29 Speaker 2: the only time that would happen. Yeah.

28:30 Speaker 3: Yeah.

28:31 Speaker 7: Wow, it's hard, you know, the music industry, the music,

28:35 Speaker 7: but the scene has changed, even I've only been doing

28:39 Speaker 7: it for two years and I'm noticing differences. Yeah, and uh,

28:43 Speaker 7: there's a huge saturation of artists at the moment, which

28:45 Speaker 7: is a really beautiful thing, like anyone can do this. Yeah,

28:49 Speaker 7: but it just means that you have to really hustle

28:51 Speaker 7: to get gigs. Oh yeah, I have a job at

28:54 Speaker 7: the moment. I'm an intern for a therapy agency, and

28:57 Speaker 7: it's like, when I get home, there's other things in

29:01 Speaker 7: my life that I want to make sure that I'm doing,

29:04 Speaker 7: which is spend time with family and my cats and

29:08 Speaker 7: make sure I'm taking better care of my health, which

29:10 Speaker 7: I've started doing about two months ago.

29:12 Speaker 2: So I don't know yet. I think I think I

29:17 Speaker 2: am limiting myself to gigs.

29:18 Speaker 7: I have gigs. I have a show tonight, for example, But.

29:21 Speaker 2: Where are you playing tonight? We should plug that at

29:24 Speaker 2: the Whiskey Tavern in Laconia. Okay, okay, excellent, But.

29:28 Speaker 7: I'm kind of willing to diminish playing live. I'm going

29:33 Speaker 7: to go into the studio and record some songs, yeah,

29:35 Speaker 7: and focus on that for a little bit and then

29:38 Speaker 7: see where that takes me.

29:39 Speaker 2: Yeah.

29:40 Speaker 7: I've done almost everything I wanted to do musically in

29:43 Speaker 7: this state, and I'm very proud of that. Yeah, and

29:45 Speaker 7: so I don't mind taking a bit of a break.

29:48 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. The songs that are on the CP

29:54 Speaker 2: will you be? I mean, how does the what's the

29:56 Speaker 2: process of sort of translating those who like, if it's

29:59 Speaker 2: just you and a guitar live? Is that easy to

30:03 Speaker 2: I think so.

30:06 Speaker 7: Because they were written originally, and like you've seen my

30:09 Speaker 7: guitar playing. I'm not someone that just like drums the chord.

30:12 Speaker 7: So for example, that song has a lot of two

30:14 Speaker 7: hands tapping in it. Yeah, so I do that live,

30:17 Speaker 7: and the arrangement is based on the guitar riffs first

30:22 Speaker 7: and foremost. So you're you know, because the foundation is

30:28 Speaker 7: already there, it's kind of easy to emulate it so

30:33 Speaker 7: now to a certain degree. So for example, I think

30:35 Speaker 7: my favorite song on the album is a song called Prozac,

30:37 Speaker 7: And if you listen to the song, it has a

30:39 Speaker 7: bit of a I don't know if caribbean is the

30:41 Speaker 7: right word, but like it reminds me of like Little

30:43 Speaker 7: Mermaid under the Sea. It has that kind of sound

30:46 Speaker 7: to it. When you play it live, it sounds more

30:49 Speaker 7: like John Mayer's Neon. But I think they translate still

30:54 Speaker 7: like you wouldn't You wouldn't be like, oh, that's a

30:56 Speaker 7: totally different song. Okay, it's still the same song because

30:58 Speaker 7: the grief is still there.

31:00 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, should we? Maybe we should play that one next?

31:03 Speaker 2: You want to want to give that one a spence? Sure?

31:05 Speaker 2: If you're just joining us, Temple Mountain is here, Eric

31:08 Speaker 2: from Temple Mountain. We should clarify to for a new

31:10 Speaker 2: You've been on the show a bunch now, but for

31:12 Speaker 2: but for people who don't know, why are you called

31:13 Speaker 2: Temple Mountain?

31:15 Speaker 3: Uh?

31:16 Speaker 7: Because I say, but at the time, I was a

31:18 Speaker 7: case manager and I just don't you know, you don't

31:22 Speaker 7: want you want to be able to separate your life

31:24 Speaker 7: a little bit. Yeah, so having And you know, I

31:27 Speaker 7: grew up watching a lot of power Rangers, so I

31:29 Speaker 7: always have been into like alter egos.

31:31 Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, well very good,

31:34 Speaker 2: very good. All right. So this is from the new

31:36 Speaker 2: EP Dress Sharp. This is Temple Mountain and this track

31:39 Speaker 2: is called Prozac.

31:59 Speaker 3: This has lost its way words.

32:08 Speaker 13: Shouting loud, run but I can't be here. Did I

32:16 Speaker 13: fall from those magic curves? Did I get all that

32:22 Speaker 13: anti jet she would plant to roll around my mind?

32:39 Speaker 2: Did the voices were so loud?

32:43 Speaker 3: Now I don't ship tear from my eyes.

32:48 Speaker 2: I don't want to so any hell.

32:52 Speaker 3: Choices cute made now all up here.

33:34 Speaker 15: Simultaneously outside, separated from my aboudy, I struggling to rise.

33:47 Speaker 9: The choices cu.

33:51 Speaker 3: Now al up here.

33:53 Speaker 6: You say, I am not.

34:00 Speaker 3: Jams, I'm not.

34:09 Speaker 5: J Thatt.

34:14 Speaker 6: Thatt you, I'm not O Jay.

34:29 Speaker 14: Liter not.

34:56 Speaker 3: Session queen.

35:00 Speaker 2: Oh kay. That is Brozac. That is from the new

35:13 Speaker 2: EP from Temple Mountain called a Dress Sharp and very

35:17 Speaker 2: very catchy. I like that a lot, Thank you. So

35:20 Speaker 2: what's the genesis of the Uh why is it called

35:23 Speaker 2: dress sharp?

35:25 Speaker 7: Uh?

35:25 Speaker 2: It's asked.

35:26 Speaker 7: So there's a line in the crowd this on the

35:29 Speaker 7: crowd that says dress sharp. But that's not why I

35:30 Speaker 7: called it that. I asked a friend of mine to

35:33 Speaker 7: do the album artworker. Name's Casey Arnold. She's an incredible

35:36 Speaker 7: local artist. Uh strong shout out there. We met at

35:40 Speaker 7: a gig, actually she did the She did the audio

35:44 Speaker 7: for me at a place called Madhouse Coffee mad River

35:47 Speaker 7: Coffee House in Campton, New Hampshire, and her art was

35:52 Speaker 7: on the walls and I was like, I'm in love

35:54 Speaker 7: with this. So she did the art for another song

35:56 Speaker 7: of mine called Bend, and which isn't on Spotify anymore.

36:00 Speaker 7: But uh, when this album came out, I knew she

36:02 Speaker 7: was who I wanted to do, and I told her

36:04 Speaker 7: just listen to the album and paint whatever you feel.

36:07 Speaker 7: And she painted this with the album the uh the

36:11 Speaker 7: image that you see, and just it was like, oh,

36:13 Speaker 7: dress sharp.

36:14 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, very good, very good. Oh you said something

36:17 Speaker 2: interesting just now too. You said, so you had you

36:19 Speaker 2: had a song called Bend, that's not on Spotify anymore,

36:21 Speaker 2: did you remove it?

36:22 Speaker 10: Yeah?

36:22 Speaker 7: I removed that song, a song called Grateful, and a

36:26 Speaker 7: song called Lonely because I just couldn't stand the production

36:28 Speaker 7: on it. Really it was it was it was when

36:30 Speaker 7: I in between Schema and this album, I went to

36:33 Speaker 7: a different studio to record some stuff. Yeah, and I

36:36 Speaker 7: didn't know what I was doing, okay, and it was

36:40 Speaker 7: too unproduced. So like it was cool, they're great songs,

36:43 Speaker 7: but like they were double voiced and they the audios

36:47 Speaker 7: and it was pitchy and it just didn't feel like

36:50 Speaker 7: I was representing myself.

36:51 Speaker 2: Well okay, yeah, what was it? Was it a situation

36:56 Speaker 2: where like the engineer there didn't uh wasn't helpful and

37:00 Speaker 2: train your sound or.

37:02 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think he understood that I liked low five.

37:05 Speaker 7: He's a great engineer. So it's like I don't want

37:07 Speaker 7: to diminish his thing.

37:11 Speaker 2: But that's why, that's why I'm not asking you who

37:13 Speaker 2: it is. I know you don't want to throw anybody

37:15 Speaker 2: under the bus.

37:15 Speaker 7: Now, I could say what his name rhyme's with no, no, no,

37:22 Speaker 7: I just say it just didn't feel right, and I think, uh,

37:25 Speaker 7: I think I knew I wanted to head in the

37:27 Speaker 7: direction of address Sharp, which is why I entered the studio,

37:30 Speaker 7: and instead I just it was like I was taking

37:32 Speaker 7: a step back instead of going forward. Okay, it's funny

37:35 Speaker 7: because those songs actually performed really well on Spotify because

37:39 Speaker 7: I did the waterfall effect on them and my views,

37:41 Speaker 7: my numbers went up. I just, you know, if you're

37:45 Speaker 7: not proud of something, you shouldn't. I didn't want to

37:47 Speaker 7: do keep it there.

37:48 Speaker 2: Yeah, was that a hard decision?

37:50 Speaker 6: No?

37:51 Speaker 2: No, no, it was really really Yeah, I've been I

37:54 Speaker 2: knew I was going to do it for a while. Okay.

37:56 Speaker 7: And it's funny because and I forget how to play

37:59 Speaker 7: a lot I saw sometimes really yeah, it's really unhealthy.

38:02 Speaker 7: But uh, I totally forgot how to play Ben's. And

38:05 Speaker 7: there's another song called Lonely, which I actually really like

38:07 Speaker 7: that song, but I can't play. Every time I try

38:09 Speaker 7: to pick up the guitar, I'm like, what are these chords?

38:12 Speaker 2: Interesting? Yeah? Because I try.

38:13 Speaker 7: I don't normally use like theory or anything like that. Yeah,

38:16 Speaker 7: like use my ear and try to find these patterns

38:19 Speaker 7: and motifs, and eventually, like then I have to learn

38:22 Speaker 7: the song again, and it's like I can't figure I

38:24 Speaker 7: can't do it.

38:25 Speaker 2: No kenning happens all the time, does it really? Yeah? Yeah,

38:29 Speaker 2: I can only play like four songs on Schema still

38:32 Speaker 2: no kennying. Yeah, that's interesting.

38:34 Speaker 7: By the way, this isn't something I recommend other people

38:36 Speaker 7: to do. Learn your music, right right? Yeah, but you

38:40 Speaker 7: know I can play Wonderwall like it's no tomorrow. So

38:42 Speaker 7: it's I don't know. Maybe it's a uh, maybe it's

38:45 Speaker 7: an insecurity thing towards my own music where I purposely

38:47 Speaker 7: forget it.

38:48 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I wonder if subconsciously or maybe you just

38:50 Speaker 2: get bored with the songs, and so your brain, the

38:53 Speaker 2: part of your brain kind of says, eh, we're done

38:55 Speaker 2: with this one. I feel like that's what Alfred Adler,

38:57 Speaker 2: a psychotherapist, would say. Yeah, well, there you go, there

39:01 Speaker 2: you go. There's a reason for everything. Yeah. Do you

39:05 Speaker 2: have any you plan to do any music videos for

39:07 Speaker 2: these or.

39:08 Speaker 7: I have an idea for prozac? Yeah, yeah, but it's

39:11 Speaker 7: just I don't know if I will. I have an

39:13 Speaker 7: idea of me like being in a relationship with someone

39:16 Speaker 7: that's in like a pill bottle costume. Oh, and then

39:20 Speaker 7: like at the end it would be me like dancing

39:23 Speaker 7: with a bunch of pill bottles. But that could that

39:27 Speaker 7: maybe that could sound a little what you might call it,

39:30 Speaker 7: maybe that would provide the wrong image of what I'm

39:32 Speaker 7: trying to get with the song, because the song's about

39:35 Speaker 7: the benefits of how it's helped change my life. Yeah yeah,

39:39 Speaker 7: but you know again it's I would do it. I

39:43 Speaker 7: have people that I could use that I I would do,

39:46 Speaker 7: but I don't know if I'm interested. Yeah, Like, what's

39:49 Speaker 7: the point of doing the music video just from I

39:51 Speaker 7: guess maybe for my own catharsis but yeah, yeah, and

39:55 Speaker 7: I feel like I sound like it to be downer

39:57 Speaker 7: at the moment, but you know, like people should music videos.

40:00 Speaker 2: But I just if I would do it if I

40:02 Speaker 2: felt the need to, right right, Yeah at the moment.

40:05 Speaker 2: I do like your idea, though, I think that's fine.

40:08 Speaker 7: I've looked up on Amazon for pill bottle costumes and

40:11 Speaker 7: I haven't found the one that like in my you know,

40:14 Speaker 7: the CVS pill bottle. Yeah yeah, it requires like instructions

40:18 Speaker 7: to open. Yeah, yeah, that's the bottom, and I can't

40:21 Speaker 7: find one. I found one, but it was it's like

40:24 Speaker 7: a cannabis costume, so it shows like, uh, shows buds

40:55 Speaker 2: So you did mention, So so you've got new music

40:57 Speaker 2: that you're going to be working on as far as uh.

41:00 Speaker 7: It's very this is a very recent thing, like two

41:02 Speaker 7: days ago when when the album I was burnt out

41:06 Speaker 7: until I released this album, like yeah, And I mean,

41:09 Speaker 7: like you ask anyone that was that saw me there

41:11 Speaker 7: at gigs and stuff like that. They could tell like, uh,

41:14 Speaker 7: kat Ivy, actually we had a show, our last show

41:17 Speaker 7: was together at a place called the Francistown Coffee House

41:21 Speaker 7: in Francis Town, New Ham Sure, and she went up

41:24 Speaker 7: to me, She's like are you are you okay? I

41:26 Speaker 7: just didn't want to be there. I really wanted to

41:28 Speaker 7: be home, you know, yeah, yeah, I just I couldn't

41:30 Speaker 7: take it.

41:30 Speaker 2: Anymore.

41:31 Speaker 7: And uh, when I released this album and I could,

41:34 Speaker 7: I haven't been able to write a song. And since May,

41:37 Speaker 7: let's say which for me, that's a long time.

41:39 Speaker 2: Yeah, and uh, two days ago something happened.

41:44 Speaker 7: Yeah, I've written a few songs in the past couple

41:48 Speaker 7: days and one of them I really like, and I

41:50 Speaker 7: reached out to Andrew.

41:51 Speaker 2: And I showed it to him and we're going to

41:52 Speaker 2: do it. Excellent. I'm excited. Excellent. Are you gonna do

41:54 Speaker 2: it as a single.

41:55 Speaker 7: Or I think I think I'm gonna do. I think

41:57 Speaker 7: I'll record two or three songs this year and I'll

42:00 Speaker 7: release them individually, and I don't know if I'll promote

42:05 Speaker 7: them very much. I think it's just not about that anymore.

42:08 Speaker 2: I just want to you know.

42:09 Speaker 7: I say that now and then you're gonna see me.

42:11 Speaker 7: I'll do an interview and like a few months and

42:13 Speaker 7: I'm like working harder than ever.

42:14 Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, I think I think musicians go through this,

42:17 Speaker 2: of course, yeah, oh absolutely.

42:20 Speaker 7: In fact, you know, there are people and I mean

42:22 Speaker 7: this is the comp like Katie Dobbs is a great

42:24 Speaker 7: example where I don't think she gets like she's just

42:27 Speaker 7: she's a power horse, keeps going and going and going

42:30 Speaker 7: so inspiring and I'm I can't do that really, Yeah,

42:34 Speaker 7: I mean I did.

42:34 Speaker 2: And then I need you need a few months off sometimes. Yeah,

42:38 Speaker 2: well you also have a career, you know, so it's

42:42 Speaker 2: it's hard. I appreciate that empathy. Yeah, nice to hear

42:45 Speaker 2: that it's hard. It's hard to do like everything that

42:48 Speaker 2: you want to do, you know.

42:49 Speaker 3: Yeah.

42:49 Speaker 7: All at once I was I was, I know, like

42:52 Speaker 7: I'm looking at the time, but I was really curious

42:54 Speaker 7: about how you got this job.

42:56 Speaker 2: Well, so this show actually started as a podcast in

42:59 Speaker 2: one eleven, although I was doing podcasts way but I'm

43:03 Speaker 2: like an og podcaster. But I started out doing podcasts

43:06 Speaker 2: and then but I had a I used to do. Actually,

43:09 Speaker 2: I did multiple television shows at because you know this

43:13 Speaker 2: is owned by Manchester Public Television, so on the channel

43:16 Speaker 2: twenty three, I did shows and but then I had

43:19 Speaker 2: an opportunity. I was invited to bring my podcast to

43:23 Speaker 2: w M and H And it was April of twenty seventeen,

43:27 Speaker 2: so coming up on nine years. So is in terms

43:31 Speaker 2: of like careers in this field, is this been the

43:34 Speaker 2: one that you have the most longevity with? Is this show? No?

43:37 Speaker 2: Because I've been doing I've been doing. Uh well, I

43:39 Speaker 2: I'm a hypnotherapist. As you know, I've been right, I've

43:41 Speaker 2: been doing that for more more than twenty years. Yeah,

43:44 Speaker 2: I'm I'm so upset we didn't discuss that.

43:47 Speaker 7: Now I'm like, I have so many questions. Yeah, yeah,

43:51 Speaker 7: so funny, Yeah yeah, how has that been good?

43:54 Speaker 2: Good? Well, you know it's January, it's you know, New

43:56 Speaker 2: Year's resolution time.

43:58 Speaker 3: So uh.

44:00 Speaker 2: So you don't have like necessarily do you have consistent clients? Hell?

44:03 Speaker 2: Or is it always uh new people? There's always new people,

44:07 Speaker 2: because the thing about hypnotherapy is if I'm doing a

44:09 Speaker 2: really good job, want and done, they don't come back. Yeah,

44:11 Speaker 2: they don't need to fascinate.

44:13 Speaker 16: Yea, the opposite with the I know, I know exactly

44:17 Speaker 16: exactly if you do want and done, Yeah, you got

44:20 Speaker 16: a gift if you want to know, if.

44:24 Speaker 2: You want to help someone with a phobia, you have

44:26 Speaker 2: to take a while, you take your time with it.

44:29 Speaker 7: Or well, it depends on what it depends on what

44:30 Speaker 7: you define as helping a phobia. Well true, yeah, yeah,

44:33 Speaker 7: I I kind of also am a part of accepting

44:36 Speaker 7: like the idea of can you accept your fear before

44:39 Speaker 7: moving on the right right.

44:40 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so interesting. Yeah, well, we are approaching the

44:45 Speaker 2: top of the hour, so I want to make sure
