The Casual Sound Tyler Jacobson, Jake Ryan, Lenny

As we record and publish this, much of America is under some sort of “shelter-in-place” order so we don’t infect each other with coronavirus. Jake felt that it would be inhumane to deprive you of some of the great new music he’s come across. Here it is.

There’s no commentary on this episode, so you’ll just have to imagine Tyler at the wheel, Jake riding shotgun, and Lenny in the back, traveling up to the casino town of Central City, Colorado, listening to this playlist that we all contributed to. It begins with Northside’s “A Change Is On Its Way”, as both a tribute to their recently passed guitarist Tim Walsh and also for the lines “It tastes like heaven and it feels so nice / to roll that 7 on the lucky dice.” This was a craps trip after all – and one that was quite successful. Enjoy this episode of The Casual Sound – one that ends the decade. We’ll see you in 2020… I’m sure of it.

Jake Ryan takes the wheel after far too long of being out of gas. All two fans have told us you want some more and with a chorus like that hammering away – how could we say no. Happy 2019. The Casual Sound lives up to its name.







Jake has dedicated episode 20 to our beautiful friend Dave Cleland.

I think we’re beyond expecting this to garner a massive audience. So I’m not going to put a lot of time into optimizing these posts. Sure, call it lazy – cos it is. But if you’re in – you’re in. If you know someone who should be in – that’s how they are gonna find it. Enjoy – let us know what you think. Tell your friends.
