    Langhorne Slim - A Sweet and Mad World

    Life’s complexities are our playground as we welcome Langhorne Slim to No Simple Road! We navigate the quirks of growing older, embracing our passions with a bit more fervor and curiosity. Despite the chaos, enduring friendships and the legacies of loved ones remain our anchors. UFOs might hover in our musings, but it's the relationships we cherish that keep us grounded. Our journey isn’t just about music; it’s about the dance of loss and love, and the beautiful chaos of human connection amidst the mysteries of existence. Music steps in as both healer and unifier, transcending societal divisions and political noise. In our conversations, skepticism towards authority meets a yearning for unity, with music acting as the bridge. Sobriety and personal growth intertwine with tales of confronting addiction, all while Mr. Beautiful, the affectionate cat, adds a sprinkle of humor. Through stories of parenthood, authenticity, and even speculative drone theories, we discover that love, in all its forms, is a powerful force driving us to grow, connect, and thrive.

From her roots in a musical family to transitioning from a liberal arts college student focused on sustainable food and bioenergy systems to a full-time touring musician, Madeline shares the experiences that have shaped her career.

We explore the importance of mental and emotional well-being, highlighting how a supportive band and connections in vibrant cities like Denver contribute to her musical journey. We explore the creative process and personal growth that Madeline experiences as a musician and learn about her songwriting techniques, where she balances spontaneous inspiration with meticulous refinement, and the supportive role her family plays in her career.

This week on the No Simple Road Weekly Rewind we recap the extravagant Cookie Palooza 2024 here at the NSR Head Quarters and decide if it truly is a 'cookie exchange' or a 'cookie competition'. Then, we get into the hot topic of the last couple of weeks... the drones that have been being spotted over places like New Jersey, Maryland, and California! Are they ours? Are they extraterrestrial? Are they from the ocean? All these questions and more won't be answered because we just don't freaking know! But we sure would love to! Finally, the three of us take a turn with a magick wand to right the wrongs of this ill fated spot humanity finds itself in. -FREE SHIPPING from Shop Tour Bus Use The PROMO CODE: nosimpleroad INTRO MUSIC PROVIDED BY - Young & Sick MUSIC IN THE COMMERCIALS BY AND USED WITH PERMISSION OF: CIRCLES AROUND THE SUN OUTRO MUSIC BY AND USED WITH PERMISSION OF: CHILLDREN OF INDIGO No Simple Road is part of OSIRIS MEDIA.
