Three independent musicians who are way too in love with the sounds of their own speaking voices take you on the magical, often whimsical, sometimes tragic, but always comma-separated journey through their world as independent artists. Guest interrogations and music clips, colorful stories, and the like. Run-on sentences, self-indulgent musical crossfades, gregarious guests, and Oxford commas abound. Question marks? Yes.

    24. Best of Season One

    We compiled our favorite moments from the first "season" (chunk of relatively uninterrupted episodes, with no inherent temporal logic). Guest interrogations and music clips, us finding ourselves very funny, colorful stories, and the like. We're about to kick off our next "season," you know, eventually! We called ourselves About!... Podcast during Season One, because we thought the inside joke that syntax references was somehow more important than clarity, or having a unique, parsable title for search results. We realized our stupidity and have rebranded as Offstage at Chinchilla Studio, since, you know, descriptive words help.

    23. TourSleeper-ing with Dan Bergeron

    KTP is on tour again! Fresh off the heels of a house concert at the Massachusetts home of TourSleeper founder Dan Bergeron, we sit down with the man to discuss the band hosting platform. Sandi and Josh are among a small team of artist advisors to TourSleeper, and King Taylor Project is among its active user community. We talk about the ins-and-outs of lodging on an independent tour, we stir coffee loudly, and we might even throw a TV out the window. TourSleeper.com

    22. Sunday Driving with Nick Crook

    San Diego based musician, consumer of herbal medicines, and all around great dude Nick Crook just released his debut full length album, Sunday Drive, and is touring in support of it right meow! Aside from our soul music connection with Nick, we really like that he always brings beer when he comes over to hang out. But seriously, here's the deal: This record is exceptional—one of our favorites, period. You'll hear plenty of clips from it if you click the magic sideways triangle on your podcast player. Pairs nicely with a Sunday drive. Do yourself a massive favor and start following this dude now. He's a star, and we're honored to know him. Nick Crook's website

    21. Murder Country with Rosa's Cantina

    Who are Rosa's Cantina, you ask? Not your favorite local Mexican food joint—okay, well maybe that, too. In this case, we're talking about the Americana/indie country band co-fronted by Carissa Schroeder and Josh Renner. We relate professionally to these folks perhaps more than any other guests we've had to date. We hash out our impressions of the San Diego music scene, discuss balancing artistic fulfillment with band management, and invent a new brain region. Get in there! Rosa's Cantina website

    20. Gypsy Living with Kevin Begin

    Kevin Begin. That's our guest. He's a guy that we know. He's a hippie. You'll like him. I'm sorry, that was presumptuous of us. You'll probably like him. We talk about his working batch of tunes for an eventual debut album, and other such things. You'll like that, too. I'm sorry, that was a bit presumptuous as well. Just listen to the episode.

    19. Off The Dome: Passing Highs with davyrockett

    We try something new in this episode, an alternate format we're calling (for now) "Off The Dome." One of us picks a topic of interest, tightly organizes the episode around demonstrating the topic, and the other two of us "play" dumb and ask questions for "your" benefit... because of course we're brilliant and already know everything. In this episode, davyrockett drones on about high pass filters, but we promise it's not boring—we still act like idiots.

    18. Tribute with Ozzie Mancinelli & John McAllister

    In this episode we sat down with Ozzie Mancinelli and John McAllister, from much loved and super successful Tom Petty tribute band, PettyBreakers.  We talk about the ins and outs of tribute music, how the word "tribute" differs from the word "cover," and how tribute bands get their adoring audiences all hot and bothered.

    17. Punk & Opera with Brian & Ashley Wahlstrom

    Classically trained power couple Brian and Ashley Wahlstrom recently graced our studio with their magnificence. Take a trip with us through bits of Brian's life as a formally trained pianist and vocalist on the punk scene. Catch a sneak peak of a couple of tracks from his upcoming EP, The Generals. Applaud mightily at our seamless transition into Ashley's exploits as an opera singer. Book a princess and add "recitative" to your vocabulary.
