    Sylvan Esso: 8Track, Ep. 2-10

    As Sylvan Esso, Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn are one of the most innovative duos in the electropop world, and they've recently released their latest album, "No Rules Sandy." Their creative community extends well beyond the band via their record label, studio, a long list of other collaborations, and simply by being music fans. It all fed into these 8 song picks, which they shared with joy (and some doom) for our Season 2 finale of "8Track." [Recorded 11/17/22; More at 8trackpod.com]

    Maya Hawke is an actress, singer and songwriter who recently released her second album, "Moss," and who also portrays Robin Buckley on the Netflix series "Stranger Things." For her "8Track" picks, Maya chose the theme "Songs that I wouldn't have found without my friends," and the music fed into a conversation about creativity and connections — between people as well as songs.

    Tom Morello is musician, songwriter, activist, actor, podcaster and DJ who checked in with 8Track late last year between the releases of two new albums: "The Atlas Underground Fire" and "The Atlas Underground Flood." Clearly, he'd been keeping busy, but for his 8 song picks, Tom chose the theme, "Songs that kept me going and/or allowed me to wallow in misery during the pandemic."

    Ron Darling: 8Track, Ep. 2-4

    Ron Darling played Major League Baseball for 13 years, most notably with the New York Mets and Oakland A's, and these days, you can catch him on SNY as an analyst for those same Mets as well as on national games with TBS. It was early in this season's MLB lockout when Ron turned up some memories for 8Track, picking 8 songs with a great story for each — and telling a few extras.

    Tegan and Sara: 8Track, Ep. 2-3

    Tegan and Sara Quin have been making music for over two decades, including their new, 10th album, "Crybaby." Their 2019 memoir "High School" was also just adapted into a TV series, but instead of looking back in their 8 songs, Tegan and Sara each let us know what new songs they're loving right now. Talking about them led to a fun and wide-ranging conversation about the music industry, new parent advice and more. [Recorded 10/3/22; More at 8trackpod.com]
