A Conversation with Jake Crawford and Luke Caley of Unpeople
This week, we're scratching The Itch for riffs! And boy do our guests have them in spades! Jake Crawford and Luke Caley of Unpeople (and formerly of Press to MECO) join us for a delightful chat that covers the disbandment of their old band, the formation of their new one, the ingredients that make them so dynamic, and a whole bunch of pure music nerdery... which is the best kind of nerdery. The Unpeople EP comes out Friday, April 19. We've been riding for it for weeks, and we're so excited for the world to discover this incredible new act.

New Rock Roundup: Dead Poet Society, Blind Channel, & Kid Kapichi
This week, we're scratching The Itch for albums! We're filling you in on three of our favorite records from the first quarter of 2024: Dead Poet Society's "FISSION," Blind Channel's "Exit Emotions," and Kid Kapichi's "There Goes the Neighborhood." Enjoy, as Dead Poet Society completes the trifecta of having an album review episode, a live review episode, and an interview episode!
(For those keeping score, Blind Channel now has two album review episodes and an interview episode, while Kid Kapichi now has two album review episodes... sort of. Hopefully we'll see them both live this year!)

A Conversation with Casandra Carson of Paralandra
This week, we're scratching The Itch to hang with a MO bro! Or sis, to be accurate. Casandra Carson, frontwoman of Springfield, Missouri's Paralandra, joins us for an energized chat about her band's new album The Body Electric. Along the way we'll discuss the story behind "Love of My Life", Casandra's gift to her boyfriend, the fun they had making the music video for "Dirty Love", the time they were almost late to a show in The Itch's backyard, and what it's like to be in a band with your own dad. Enjoy!

Booking Shiprocked + The Itch On Tour: Beartooth, The Plot In You, Invent Animate, & Sleep Theory
This week, we're scratching The Itch to lie to you (but just a little)! We've got a smidge more Shiprocked-related business to take care of in the form of booking the 2025 lineup. (Alan, if you're listening...) Plus, Dan saw a show featuring two acts from Shiprocked 2024 in Beartooth and episode 180 guests Sleep Theory, as well as two bands he was less familiar with in The Plot In You and Invent Animate. What was the verdict? And what cardinal rule of Itch Etiquette was broken at the show? Listen, find out, and enjoy.
And don't forget: Voting is open for The Itch's March Bandness 2024 Final Four!

Customer Reviews
Rock fans sharing their knowledge & more
3 buddies who have been talking music for 20 years. They do their homework & don’t ask cookie cutter interview questions. You’ll get a true conversational feel from the artist interaction. Plus they share concert & cruise tips & other info. Give them a listen.
Much better than poison ivy! :-p
As a hardcore Des Rocs Filthy Animal, I discovered The Itch Rock Podcast when they included his debut album "A Real Good Person In A Real Bad Place" in their E83 - E85 2021 Itch Awards, and later interviewed him on E110. The interview was one of the most insightful and entertaining I’ve heard, so I checked out some other episodes and have definitely developed an itch for this podcast! (Sorry - like these guys, I love dad jokes!)
Not only do they *really* know their stuff, but they also clearly have great chemistry, which makes the shows a lot of fun. E100 had me in (st)itches yesterday, laughing hysterically because they were laughing hysterically even though I didn’t really know what we were laughing hysterically about! And when I checked out E69 “44 Days in 1991 with Russ from Infectious Groove”, I found myself repeatedly agreeing out loud "YESSSSS!" with their thoughts on that undeniably remarkable period in music history.
I’m looking forward to exploring more episodes and learning about bands and music that I DON’T know yet. Well done, KC, Aaron and Dan!
Know their stuff!!!!
I have learned so much from these 3 Rock lovers. I have been introduced to new music and bands that I would otherwise know nothing about. Thank you for all the research you do and the positive spirit you bring to all of us!!
