Conan Neutron’s Protonic Reversal

Chances are you know Ryan from playing drums in the desert rock supergroup Stöner, Mario Lalli & The Rubber Snake Charmers or the incredible Brant Bjork Trio, but did you know that Ryan is a multi-instrumentalist who actually started on piano? All of this is on display in his impressive debut record The Shastafarian, evoking everything from Funkadelic, Thin Lizzy to Tom Petty the record is very cool but may not be what you expect. Much talk about the making of that record, as well as the origins of Stöner, Tao of the Devil, Mount Shasta, how being adopted has sculpted Ryan's life, being true to your vision, producing yourself, the demo process, the unique process of live improv the Rubber Snake Charmers and so much more!

Dem Phylzzz boyz are at it again! That's right, new record "Fear the Lord" AND a tour. As well as a live record where everybody is vociferously booing, jeering and shouting insults. no kidding. Super group Gatta Morta. How Clinton recording with Buzz, Pinkus and Coady came to pass. How not caring about insignificant details resulted in them making their boldest record. Vetting bands and created shows that are good vibes, what goes into making a good music video and the story behind the Rodeo Clown video. How trusting each other musically changed their writing, How kindness wins, and why people don't want to help people who are rotten. Shortcuts and the WORK required for true success, how comedy shaped the Phylzzz stage persona, merch business and when studio songs don't need to be played live. Clinton singing History of Bad Men with Melvins live. The story behind Abby and her brief tenure as the third Phylzzz. What makes a song the best and being ruthless with cutting what doesn't serve it. An examination of modern social media from youtube clips to touring with Harry Styles and how one reel led to a million plays. All that and SO MUCH MORE.
