    Local Charm: The Move, the Reunion, the Record

    Jesse Hubner from Victoria band Local Charm joins Inlet Wire to talk about the move to the coast that changed his songwriting — and the friendship that unexpectedly found its way back into the music. Jesse and guitarist Shane first wrote together more than a decade ago before their lives went in different directions. Years later, Jesse’s move to Victoria brought them back together, with two of those early songs eventually finding a home on Local Charm’s self-titled album. Jesse talks about why the songs started flowing after the move, how the record came together quickly once the band formed, recording ten vocal tracks back-to-back, and why “Get It Got It” became the song that means the most to him.

    Quadra Sound: Building a World Around the Band

    I first came across Quadra Sound through a clip of the band covering one of my favourite Alice in Chains songs—and honestly, it sounded so good that I wanted to dig deeper. Quadra Sound are a four-piece rock band from Vancouver Island, but they are building more than just a collection of songs. Through social media, playful videos, and their own podcast, they are creating a whole world around the band and finding direct ways to connect with listeners. In this episode, I speak with Nick Fascione about the role social media plays for an independent band, the unexpected video that reached more than a million views, and why sharing more of himself online has encouraged him to be vulnerable. We also get into the band’s years of development, working with producer and songwriter Brian Howes, and the freedom that comes with starting again and reshaping your identity. The conversation eventually brings us back to Campbell River and a deeply personal song about growing up in a small town, wanting to experience more of the world, and remembering where you came from. Listen to the full episode to hear how Quadra Sound are balancing creativity, personality, ambition, and the work of building a band today.

    daysormay on Sound, Trust, and Stripping It Back

    Vancouver band daysormay joins Inlet Wire for a conversation about sound, trust, and learning what to strip away. Aidan Andrews, Carson Bassett, and Nolan Bassett have been making music together since they were kids, but this episode is less about how the band started and more about what changes after years of writing, producing, and playing together. They talk about becoming more intentional as adults, moving from production-heavy ideas back toward the core of guitar, bass, drums, and vocals, and how Ableton, live arrangements, and aluminum instruments have shaped the heavier direction of their sound. We also get into creative disagreement, why they try ideas musically instead of arguing them out, and the memory behind songs like “Ego” and “UV.” Featured artist:daysormay — Aidan Andrews, Carson Bassett, Nolan Bassett Find daysormay:Website: https://daysormay.com/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1gneO1Mf6DCsgxUtDzF4lSInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/daysormay/Bandcamp: https://daysormay.bandcamp.com/musicYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@daysormay Inlet Wire — your direct line to BC artists.Follow us for more BC music stories at INLETWIRE.COM

    Focus Your Audio - Songs About Connection

    In this episode of Inlet Wire, Eric Chan speaks with Sarah and Bobby from Focus Your Audio, a Vancouver duo making thoughtful, emotional songs about connection. They talk about starting as an acoustic duo, growing into a fuller band sound, and finding a writing process that gives each person space before bringing the song together. The conversation also goes into the story behind “The Long Goodbye,” a song inspired by Sarah’s experience as a nurse and a family living through dementia. Sarah and Bobby also reflect on working in the studio with Mike Young of Mother Mother and producer-songwriter Adam Hurstfield, and how those collaborations helped them think more deeply about texture, vulnerability, and emotion in recording.

    Anna Katarina - While I Was Dreaming, Songwriting, and Choosing This Life

    Anna Katarina joins Inlet Wire to talk about her album While I Was Dreaming — a record about the beautiful, complicated moments that happen while you’re chasing a different version of success. In this episode, Anna talks about growing up with big pop-star dreams, learning to value the life around her, and finding meaning in the songs that are not always the obvious “hits.” She also shares how collaboration shaped her writing, what Lost Without You taught her about discipline and inspiration, and why Vancouver still gives her something she needs.

    King Bob - Making Music That Is About Something

    King Bob began taking shape around 2018, but the songs behind the project go back much further. In this episode of Inlet Wire, I’m joined by Jackson McDonald from the Victoria band King Bob. Jackson talks about learning to record at home, bringing years of unfinished ideas together for the 17-song debut album Rookie, and how one of the band’s oldest songs became “Figure It Out.” We also talk about King Bob’s Patreon, where Jackson shares demos, weekly covers and other work that happens between official releases. Near the end of the episode, Jackson explains why thought and intention remain central to every King Bob song. King Bob are currently recording their second album, with more new music on the way.

    The Shindigs - From Childhood Buddies to a Band

    The Shindigs are a five-piece indie rock band from Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. In this episode, Eric Chan talks with Shea Peoples and Alex Peabody about the unlikely connection that first brought the band together, how that early friendship became part of their creative process, and what changed once the shows started getting bigger. They also get into writing as a full band, learning how to turn a set into a real show, and why touring can still feel like a week-long sleepover with your friends.

    Kaj Falch-Nielsen from Blue Light Studio on Building an East Van Creative Hub

    Kaj Falch-Nielsen from Blue Light Studio joins Inlet Wire to talk about how a recording space can become something bigger than just a studio. Eric Chan speaks with Kaj about Blue Light’s growth into an East Vancouver creative hub, how Blue Light Sessions helped build community around the room, and what it takes to keep a space like that going in Vancouver. They also get into Kaj’s approach as a producer — understanding the song first, building it piece by piece, and chasing those moments in the studio when everything suddenly clicks.
