Danna informs Funeral Proposals that their "Beach Song" music video won a major award a while back, and we decide that if you have strong opinions or a lot to say, either go into music, podcasting, or get a trombone.

With a couple more shows and a single or two still to come this year, keep it locked by following them on IG!

Fresh off performing for thousands at the Southeast Asian Festival last month, What’s His Face stops by to talk about his journey from California to Cleveland and how hip hop, food, and breakdancing shaped his sound and his story.

We also debut a game made just for him, Green Flag, inspired by his latest song. Stream his music, give him a follow, and be on the lookout for one last single dropping before the upcoming album!

This was a rare setup: just JLaird from LoCLE Grown and Bre-J from Land of Panda holding it down, and a time was HAD! Bre shares some wild stories (it really is Always Something, amiright?) and talks about what’s next for the band with an album on the way early next year.

Catch his solo performance of Land of Panda's latest singles, and keep an ear out for “Rita” and “Memories,” dropping soon ahead of the new album. Thanks again, Bre!

SONGS PERFORMED:

• T-Break
• It's Always Something
• Stay Up (Unreleased)

We're looking at the same thing, but like...I gotta different pair of shades on, now.

"Hoop with no net? I'm not playin' here."

We literally could not stop laughing with Recess in this episode and literally had to play ourselves off at the end (midwestern goodbye, but make it a podcast).

Recess has inspiring stories and heartfelt music that both captivates and makes you FEEL things. Their next single, 'Petal', will be releasing soon, but you can catch it first with us at the end of this episode! Thank you Recess!

SONGS PERFORMED:

• Petals
• I Heard You're Happy
