In Episode 7, we continue with amazing in-studio guests and welcome Robert Loncto to Disgraceland! We talk about what the term singer-songwriter implies and why you might not want to be labeled as one. We even devise a new music genre description system based on the same terms used to describe porn. Trust us, it’s brilliant.
Bobby talks about his current projects, The Danbury Lie and Black Tar Pineapple, as well as thoughts on his past projects and where his writing and performing is taking him now.
We get a killer acoustic in-studio performance on top of that AND the whole thing clocks in at under 90 minutes for those of you who have been begging us to shut the fuck up!
As always, thanks for listening and if you’d like to talk about your art, your music, your scene, or anything related, we’d love to have YOU on an upcoming podcast.

A few things like a Superstorm™, a Presidential Election and a Nor’easter tried to stand in the way of Podcast 6 getting out there. Here, slightly delayed, and finally, we present Designated Driver No. 6…
In the aftermath of the Hurricane, Superstorm or whatever you want to call it, people need help. So, if you have not already done so, please donate what you can to the Red Cross, The ASPCA, Occupy Sandy, or any/all of the organizations that are trying to help people get their lives put back together after the storm. That’s one thing we will not make light of or make fun of.
So, before the insanity, we sat down with Brian Fostervold, veteran of the Danbury, CT music scene, rumored recluse, the man they like to call, “The Syd Barrett of Connecticut.” Why did we do this? First, it has been alleged that Brian never leaves his house. This myth was debumked as he spend hours with us in-studio! Two, we have a lot of musical history and college experiences in common with Brian and it was great to sit down and chat about that and where the music has gone in our little corner of the world and how parenthood works it’s way into all of that. Third, and most importantly, Brian was one of the first fans of the podcast and has helped spread the word to the masses. Who wouldn’t want their number one podcast fan on the show?!
This was also the first podcast that required minimal editing and clocked in at under 2 hours on it’s own … Maybe we CAN go live someday, now that we’re figuring out how to SHUT UP. Anyway, thanks for listening and please share this with your friends if you enjoy it.

In Episode 5, we learn that Barry and Darrell CAN make a podcast without Greg … BUT, not without the harsh reality that Greg’s humor is sorely missed. So, join as as we curse Greg’s name and podcast without him.
Fortunately, Our guest this time is Jason Gisser - One of the most talented and interesting independent solo artists that we know! We discuss everything from such non-musical topics as honey and factory farming, to Amanda Palmer and her silly little controversy. Then, we sit down with Jason and talk about being an independent artist and get some great insight on booking shows and succeeding in the current musical climate.
The Best Part: Jason also played 4 songs, acoustic, in-studio. His performance is definitely the highlight of this Podcast.

We kind of stumbled into this podcasting thing by accident. In doing some commentary for our first full length record, we realized that we had a lot to talk about and that like-minded independent artists probably did, too. Here, then, is our first podcast - commentary on our new record, how we made it, why we made it and everything that happened along the way.
If you’d like to talk about your music, your scene, or anything related, we’d love to have you on the podcast.
