Songs of Our Lives

<p>On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Bob Holmes! I had a great time chatting with Bob about the new incredible new SUSS record, “Counting Sunsets,” a staple in my listening the last couple months. We talked all things Across the Horizon as well before getting into Glen Campbell, Brian Eno, The Monkees, Walt McClemenets, Springsteen, Yes, and plenty more!</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE-GZqzFP5efywTMXeMIMXNYGjvIDXp9j"><strong>Listen to all of Bob’s picks HERE</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://suss.bandcamp.com/album/counting-sunsets"><strong>“Counting Sunsets”</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://northernspyrecs.com/across-the-horizon/"><strong>Across the Horizon (label)</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://sussband.substack.com/s/across-the-horizon"><strong>Across the Horizon (podcast)</strong></a></p><p><strong>Songs of Our Lives</strong> is a podcast series hosted by <strong>Brad Rose</strong> of <strong>Foxy Digitalis</strong> that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.

<p>On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Ruth Garbus! After an unexpected hiatus, this is the perfect episode to get back in action. Despite both of us being a bit tired when recording, we had way too much talking about Ruth’s new record, “Profound,” Gabriel Faure, treating anxiety and depression, and then a pile of songs from D’oa, Donny Hathaway, UB40, Bob Dylan, Sly &amp; The Family Stone, Kim Petras, Ween, and loads more!</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE-GZqzFP5eexGvfExHgzak86-AI_MN6M"><strong>Listen to all of Ruths picks HERE</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://ruthgarbus.bandcamp.com/album/profound"><strong>“Profound”</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://ruthgarbus.com/"><strong>Ruth’s Website</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/rruuggaa/"><strong>Ruth on IG</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://randyarmstrong.com/product/companions-of-the-crimson-coloured-ark/"><strong>Do’a</strong></a></p><p><strong>Songs of Our Lives</strong> is a podcast series hosted by <strong>Brad Rose</strong> of <strong>Foxy Digitalis</strong> that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.

<p><strong>**Still on an unexpected hiatus but new episodes will be back very soon! This week, let's revisit YATTA's awesome episode before blasting "Palm Wine" to start the summer.**</strong></p><p>On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s YATTA! Even though we had to fight through some technical difficulties throughout, we had a great time talking about YATTA’s latest album, “Palm Wine” (one of the albums of the year), the Palm Wine genre, making music videos, and more. Once we get to the questions, we go long about theirr granduncle, S.E. Rogie, the undeniable magic of Brenda Fassie, moments when Kanye’s still got it, an unapologetic appreciation for “Sandstorm,” Whitney Houston, Sufjan Stevens, The Flamingos + plenty more!</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE-GZqzFP5eeC3PtPqTYrDkeqE3-aOfiM"><strong>Listen to all of YATTA’s picks HERE</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thisisyatta.bandcamp.com/album/palm-wine"><strong>“Palm Wine”</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/yatta.sound/"><strong>YATTA on Instagram</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://yattasound.net/"><strong>YATTA’s website</strong></a></p><p><strong>Songs of Our Lives</strong> is a podcast series hosted by <strong>Brad Rose</strong> of <strong>Foxy Digitalis</strong> that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.

<p><strong>Still on an unexpected hiatus but new episodes will be back very soon! This week, let's revisit this episode &amp; then listen to Whitney’s </strong><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://intlanthem.bandcamp.com/album/body-sound"><strong>trio album</strong></a><strong> with Lia Kohl and Macie Stewart.</strong></p><p>On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Whitney Johnson! Whitney did something I’ve always dreamed about - releasing two different albums (under two separate names no less!) on the same day, and both of them are fabulous. We talk about that and some other sound projects before diving into all the sides of Sonny Sharrock, Prince’s all-time greatness, unrepentant love for ABBA, Psychic TV destroying us, the Steve Winwood hypetrain, and FINALLY someone’s favorite song is also my favorite song, so we had a moment at the end. Plus more, obviously!</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE-GZqzFP5efCXMsoHWGp1PxdQ_qYxrl8"><strong>Listen to all of Whitney’s picks HERE</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://whitneyjohnson.bandcamp.com/album/hav"><strong>“Hav”</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://matchess.bandcamp.com/album/stena"><strong>“Stena”</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/matchesse/"><strong>Whitney on Instagram</strong></a></p><p><strong>Songs of Our Lives</strong> is a podcast series hosted by <strong>Brad Rose</strong> of <strong>Foxy Digitalis</strong> that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.

<p><strong>**Still on an unexpected hiatus but new episodes will be back very soon! This week, let's revisit one of my favorite episodes w/ one of the most underrated musicians out there!</strong>**</p><p></p><p>On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Tomin! This one feels full circle. Ever since learning about Tomin’s music nearly four years ago, I’ve felt a special connection to it. It’s been hard to explain, but after seeing his picks for this episode and talking to him about them, it makes a lot more sense. His latest record, “A Willed and Conscious Balance,” is out now International Anthem and is such a special listen. We talk about that, his cheat code of a band, and plenty more before diving into TLC’s eye-opening impact, the all-time greatness of jaimie branch, the absurdly underappreciated Marvin Hannibal Peterson, living in the same timeline as Alice Coltrane, transcending with Ballake Sissiko, Charles Mingus, James Brandon Lewis, John Coltrane, and loads more!</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE-GZqzFP5eclwQhic8Pfic9ItfoMegUL"><strong>Listen to all of Tomin’s picks HERE</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://intlanthem.bandcamp.com/album/a-willed-and-conscious-balance"><strong>“A Willed and Conscious Balance”</strong></a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://intlanthem.bandcamp.com/album/flores-para-verene-cantos-para-caramina"><strong>“Flores para Verene / Cantos para Caramina”</strong></a></p><p><strong>Songs of Our Lives</strong> is a podcast series hosted by <strong>Brad Rose</strong> of <strong>Foxy Digitalis</strong> that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.
