Sean and Marshall talk touring, Fremont Fridays and charting their paths through music in Seattle.



Marshall Hugh is a Seattle-based rapper and the frontman of funk-hop collective Marshall Law Band. He's also the co-founder of Fremont Fridays: a free-to-attend event series and marketplace in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood. Beginning in 2021, Fremont Fridays established itself as a platform for up-and-coming bands, MCs, community organizers and small businesses amidst Seattle's busy summers.



Sean Moran is the guitarist and songwriter of Balcony Bridge. Balcony Bridge are a Seattle-based rock band who got their start performing at parks around the city before linking up with The Nook - a DIY collective who got started throwing house shows in the U-District and rapidly grew to selling out 1000-capacity events at The Neptune Theatre.

In just over a year, Balcony Bridge have gone from playing parks and house parties around Seattle to joining up with local collective The Nook and others for a headlining show at the U District's legendary Neptune Theatre!  In a city where venues can be skittish about developing new talent, Balcony Bridge represent everything I love about finding new paths and creating your best memories in the process!

John, Russ and Julio of Asterhouse join me to discuss their new documentary "Stay Well, Stay Awake", which began as a film project about the band and turned into a an expose of COVID-19's impact on the Seattle music scene.  The discussions comes full circle to what's happened since the documentary and the roots of Asterhouse's music.

Jenn and Rebecca of Medejin join me to talk about their journey as a band and plans for the future!  I first heard their song "World's Fair" around this time last year and was captivated, not only by the songwriting but their strong sonic aesthetic.  "Transportive" is the best word I have to describe it!  NOTE: Due to COVID-19, the show with Tomo Nakayama at Tractor Tavern has been post-poned!  In the meantime, buy their music on BandCamp!

Intro music:  Medejin w/ Tomo Nakayama - "Real Ones"
