About this listen
Our first overseas interview—and it’s a deep one. Shandon Sahm joins Green Chili Chisme from the Netherlands, where immigration officers recognized his name and ushered him in. That name? Doug Sahm—his father, his hero, and the soul we dive into like never before.
We talk:
-
🎸 Being the only Sahm kid born in Cali, and not touching music until high school
-
🧨 Parriah, his first band, and signing to a label early
-
🌵 Watching the Meat Puppets rise to rock star status at 23
-
🎭 The Doug + Kiss connection: backstage passes, Gene Simmons’ Ax Bass, and Paul Stanley showing up for Doug in NYC
-
🎶 Two solo records, studio happy accidents, and the circles fans travel—from Meat Puppets to Doug to the Tornados
-
🕊️ Rock & Roll Hall of Fame snubs, and why Doug’s name still echoes
Shandon sounds so much like his dad it’s haunting. He thanked us—me and Mike—multiple times for keeping Doug’s name alive. He didn’t know he’s woven into eight of my short films. Now he does.
This one’s not just a deep dive. It’s a soul spiral.
