  1. WXPN's 885 Greatest Cover Songs (Second Half) - NextFavBand / 25 O'Clock / Yo! That's My Jawn

    DEC 11

    WXPN's 885 Greatest Cover Songs (Second Half) - NextFavBand / 25 O'Clock / Yo! That's My Jawn

    Every year WXPN puts out a "Greatest" prompt for the listernship community to chew on and submit their Top 10 list.  The station then compiles, calculates and computes the highest ranking 885 from those submissions.  This year, we are determining the Greatest Cover Songs of all-time. Here's how WXPN is defining a cover: A cover is when an artist performs or records a song created and released by someone else. Full stop.  I'll once again be joined by my fav Pod Pals Dan Drago from 25 O'Clock Pod and Nate Runkel from Yo! That's My Jawn. In this second half, Dan, Nate and Phillip share their Top 10 lists providing commentary and rationale along the way.  They also provide prognostication regarding what will make it to the ultimate top of the list being revealed by WXPN the next day. There's also a tense moment around the song "Hallelujah" and Nate attempts to kick Phillip off the show.  Pretty surprising given the season and the song (that is better covered by Puddle Pity Party). Please share your picks for Greatest Cover Songs of All-Time! Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand... As always, our hope is to bring you "your next favorite band". If you tuned in today because you already knew this musician - thank you very much! We hope that you enjoyed it and would consider following us and subscribing so we can bring you your #nextfavband in the future. And check out nextfavband.com for our entire catalog of interviews! If you have a recommendation on who you think OUR next favorite band should be, hit us up on social media (@nextfavband everywhere) or send us an email at nextfavband@stereophiliastudio.com. Thank you to Carver Commodore, argonaut&wasp, and Blair Crimmins for allowing us to use their music in the show open and close. It makes everything sound so much better!

  4. Bird Streets - Your Next Favorite Band

    Bird Streets - Your Next Favorite Band

    When I recently was introduced to the music of Bird Streets, it immediately jumped out as something special.  Described as running the gamut from claustrophobic folk, to anthemic indie pop, to punk rock freakouts - there's something here for everyone. One song in particular has been living in my earholes since I first heard it, and so I cannot wait to connect with John Brodeur, the mastermind behind the sound. John has been writing and performing music for a good while now - first as part of a few bands, then for some solo music, and then most recently since 2018 under the nom-de-guerre Bird Streets.  He's recently released the second album Escape Artist, and it his best work yet. Starting at the age of 4 being introduced to music and exploring instruments - drums were the first love, then school introduced him to the flute and on to guitar and others after that.  A true professional - this will be a great convo, filled with fun and nerdy music details. And sounds like he'll perform live during the show!  Don't miss it! Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...

    State of Things Banter with George Hrab - Your Next Favorite Band

    A bunch of topics have been on my mind, and I wanted to talk about them with you all.  Some of them are deep and that I wanted to ensure we got a musicians perspective on, so I reached out to my good friend George Hrab and he agreed to come on and banter with me. We'll first review Halloween and some related topics and then talk about the recent announcement of the Winter WonderJam 2025 line-up and details, and also tease the 2026 events we've got brewing. Related to those events, we'll touch on the topics of artificial intelligence both its impact on art and music, as well as the environment.  And we'll also talk about music streaming and what are some of the options out there that are better for musicians. I'll share my top 10 list for the WXPN Greatest Cover Songs of All Time adventure and talk about our upcoming episode. And of course hear more about George's goings on as a musician, and his Hall of Fame Geologic Podcast. Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...

  7. Nep - Your Next Favorite Band

    OCT 30

    Nep - Your Next Favorite Band

    We were recently introduced to the infectious music of Nep and instantly knew we wanted to listen to more, and to hopefully bring her on the show.  Multiple bangers later, here we are - right on the heels of the release of the brand new music on her debut full length release Noelle and right before she tours to support the new music. The story of Nep begins in Daytona, Florida, a place of endless motorcycle rallies, sticky summers, and the kind of small-town culture she always knew she'd leave behind. Growing up surrounded by Bike Week and Biketoberfest, she felt both shaped and alienated by the noise of her hometown. "Beaches are f****d, Daytona sucks," she sings on Biketoberfest, mocking and mourning the place that raised her. It's that push and pull, the desire to escape and the need to memorialize, that fuels her debut album, Noelle. Written during her senior year at the University of Miami's Frost School of Music, Nep crafted the record with her best friend and collaborator Jake Sonderman. Between classes, late-night studio sessions, and college parties that often bled into the lyrics themselves, the pair built an album that feels both diaristic and cinematic: raw experience refracted through sharp, infectious indie-pop. We'll explore her upbringing in a house of music and engineers, her college years where she blossomed and found her true self, and now here at the precipice of music stardom. Nep will also perform live acoustic on the show!  Don't miss it!! Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...

    Daisychain - Your Next Favorite Band

    When my ears heard the first moments of the song "Rivers" by Daisychain, everything stopped.  It was one of those moments.   I knew we were in "nextfavband" land.  A deeper dive in to their catalog reveled countless bangers - all tracks stay true to a core dripping with psych rock blues, but they often take a moment to try on other genres, all to a great success. Daisychain is a femme-fronted psych/blues rock trio from Chicago made up of Nickole Regala (bass, vocals), Frankie Sripada (lead guitar) and Sophia Williams (rhythm guitar, vocals).  Formed in 2017, Regala and Williams met at a local open mic night, and weeks later they were jamming. Sripada was invited into the mix, and the trio began rehearsing as Daisychain in the basement of their neighborhood coffee shop. Since then, the trio has toured the country, including playing Chicago's legendary Metro and now with their brand new full-length album, aims to cement themselves further within the rising Midwestern indie psych rock landscape. Be sure to check them out and catch them play live when they perform near you! Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...
