The Vineyard Podcast

The splice loop, living across the street from the Krispy Kreme, and the $3000 shagin wagon. Wyatt Blair, Scott Montoya, Julia Kugel (Soft Palms, Lolipop Records, Julia Julia, The Growlers, Mr. Elevator & The Brain Hotel, The Coathangers.) Scott Montoya and Wyatt Blair were two of the earliest guests on this podcast (Episode #1 and Episode #13 respectively.) Their generosity of coming on the program early on gave me the momentum to push this podcast forward. I have wanted to get them in the same room for a while now and I am so pleased to have Julia Kugel (Whom I have wanted to have on for quite some time) on with them.

Happy accidents, the gear that’s always moving, and bluegrass Outkast. Jimmy James (Parlor Greens, True Lovers) PARLOR GREENS- Emeralds [RELEASE DATE: 4/10/2026]- https://www.coleminerecords.com "Listening to the abundant sounds of the Seattle-based funk & soul group, True Loves, is like walking down a favorite neighborhood street, slapping five with friends, checking up with clerks in their stores, and smelling the familiar scents of your most cherished locale. The band is its own block party. ‌What began in 2014 as a jam session between three of the city’s best - drummer David McGraw, bassist Bryant Moore, and guitarist Jimmy James - has since blossomed into a global force that features percussionist Iván Galvez, trombonist Greg Kramer, and saxophonists Gordon Brown and Skerik. Together, the group’s live performances have garnered them much acclaim and millions of streams on YouTube. ‌In 2017, True Loves recorded their debut instrumental LP, Famous Last Words, which received worldwide adulation, earning them performances at coveted music festivals. In 2018, the group released the "Dapper Derp/Kabuki" 45' on WeCoast Records followed by 2019's Colemine Records "Famous Last Words/Mary Pop Poppins" 45 single. The band released their sophomore album "Sunday Afternoon" in 2021, on Color Red Music. 2024 saw the band release their latest "Good Weed and Red Wine" followed by their second European tour.

Working as a scooter mechanic, a fairly well oiled machine, and figuring out how to order T-Shirts for Japan. Owen Penglis (Straight Arrows) Straight Arrow’s Middle Man / Do The Sloth- https://goodbyeboozydigital.bandcamp.com “Straight Arrows have been proudly flying the banner of Aussie garage rock for years now. The Sydney band have two solid albums under their belts and a noteworthy touring notch count that has seen them play across Australia and overseas, including tours with the likes of Thee Oh Sees and Ty Segall. With such impressive credentials, it’s no surprise that they’ve caught the attention of icons like Henry Rollins, as well as bands like The Sonics, who inspired them to make music in the first place. Ahead of the upcoming Red Bull Sound Select show in Sydney, Daniel Respall caught up with singer and guitarist Owen Penglis recently at his studio in Kings Cross, discovering that the DIY punk aesthetic is still alive and well."

A boxing match in the park, the third wave of twee, and the Alaska documentary. John Andrews (John Andrews & The Yawns, Cut Worms, Woods, Quilt) (PRE-ORDER) JOHN ANDREWS & THE YAWNS - STREETSWEEPER - PARK BENCH GREEN RECYCLED VINYL- https://earthlibraries.com “John Andrews has spent the past few years tucked away in Red Hook, Brooklyn—a neighborhood that sits just beyond the natural drift of the city. Once shaped by maritime industry and later a haven for artists in search of vast warehouse space, its history and isolation give it a quiet magnetism. Streetsweeper, the fifth album by John Andrews & The Yawns, reflects that vantage point—tranquil, self-contained, and curious about the movements most people overlook. Just a few cobblestone blocks from the freight-ship-lined harbor, Andrews wrote dozens of new songs at his electric piano. Nine of them found their way to Los Angeles to be recorded with Luke Temple, who played guitar and some bass. Drummer Noah Bond and bassist Keven Louis Lareau, both longtime members of The Yawns and Cut Worms, form the rhythm section. Will Henriksen of Florry played fiddle on “Something To Be Said,” while Emily Moales of Star Moles sang harmonies recorded remotely by Kevin Basko at Historic New Jersey. Andrews finished his overdubs back home, letting the record settle again into the landscape that first inspired it. Around that same time, he took a seasonal job in his neighborhood with the NYC Parks, maintaining the soccer fields beside the hulking, abandoned grain terminal at the river’s edge. He’d ride his bike home at lunch to record vocals, weaving the workday into the songs themselves. No matter the task, he brings a steady devotion. The whole album was tracked using the personal guitar pick of late troubadour songwriter Jerry Jeff Walker; a gift to Keven Louis Lareau by a family friend. OnStreetsweeper, Andrews leans into guitar like he hasn’t in years, still letting his relaxed, unhurried touch guide the music. “Goodbye Dirty Snow” is delicate & full of heart, yet comfortably sits next to “Friends In Misery” with its jangly trash guitars and driving rhythm section. On “Through & Through” a Santo & Johnny inspired tune, he sings in an intimate lo-fi voice: “If I were to question your greatest vice, I’d be like Bambi out on the ice.” Each lyrical vignette is filled with Andrews’ gentle empathy—he sings like someone who might’ve seen you playing fetch, kissing on a park bench, or crying on a lunch break. Andrews remains active on the DIY circuit he’s traveled for almost 20 years now, taking his solo shows on the road to backyards and unconventional spaces, projecting his signature handmade animations, which dance behind him. He sells his artwork for cheap, guided by the Bread & Puppet Theater manifesto that art should belong to everyone who wants it, and those paintings funded this album. He’s long admired Little Wings, an artist cut from the same well-worn cloth. After flipping through Kyle Field’s work at a Baby’s All Right show, he asked him to paint the cover; two shaky hockey players clad in 1980’s New Jersey Devils red and green watercolor. Red Hook may not be the easiest neighborhood to reach with its 25 minute walk to the nearest subway station but that distance gives a reward to patience and a singular glow—one Andrews sneaks into every 33 minutes of Streetsweeper. The Super 8 video for “Something To Be Said,” shot by Hilla Eden, wanders through its streets like a hazy love letter to a town on the cusp of inevitable change. The album offers a similar invitation: step off the main road, linger a little, and appreciate the small, overlooked moments that make a place—and a life—rich. Andrews has swept those margins with care, leaving songs that listen, observe, and stay with you. - Kyle Avallone" Excerpt from https://earthlibraries.com John Andrews & The Yawns: Bandcamp: https://johnandrewsyawns.bandcamp.com Instagram: @johnjandrews Merch: https://johnandrewsyawns.bandcamp.com Records: https://earthlibraries.com The Vineyard: Instagram: @thevineyardpodcast Website: https://www.thevineyardpodcast.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@thevineyardpodcast

An alchemical stew, correcting problems, and putting it all together. Sam Cohen (Apollo Sunshine, Yellowbirds) “Multi-instrumentalist Sam Cohen writes naturalist songs steeped in blissed out soul grooves and futurist guitar work. This former member of Apollo Sunshine and leader of Yellowbirds is no stranger to fuzzy psychedelia and enchanting melodies. They are presented here with the direct minimalism innate to solo work by John Lennon and Neil Young. Explosive synthesizers and earth-rattling guitar bring an otherworldliness that maintains its roots on this latest track produced with Danger Mouse."

The Elvis Presley trading card, a common fallacy, and a trail of a million tracks. Trevor LaVecchia (Free Whenever) “The band's guiding philosophy and approach to making music is rooted in long-form improvisation resulting in a unique blend of vintage psychedelia, dub, eastern modality, african rhythmic tradition and melodic guitar that leaves listeners high -- fully immersed in a synesthetic sound experience.Their new self-titled LP is the Brooklyn-based trio's latest statement and has brought them attention among fans and musicians alike. Coupled with electrifying live shows, Free Whenever is continuing to make waves throughout the modern psychedelic music scene, sharing the stage with acts like Karina Rykman and Balthvs and playing venues like Brooklyn Bowl, Baby's All Right, and The Sultan Room."

Classic garage working music, A 2026 affirmation, and voice memoing shows. Bella Martinez (Grocery Bag) “You know you’re in Austin’s West Campus when you see someone tear their entire car bumper on the curb. For Austin band Grocery Bag, it’s their sanctuary. In the Austin college co-op scene, it feels like anything is possible. From close-quarters live shows that push the fire code limits to parties that put surrounding college towns to shame, Grocery Bag is always right there in the mix. Hailing from the live music capital of the world, Grocery Bag wears their influences on their sleeves like badges of courage, and their tenure as an Austin local psych rock act has seen a meteoric rise that keeps on coming.

Joe Dirt on VHS, cool things happening in Indiana, and coaxing a song out of something mundane. Drew Auscherman (Playland, Hoops) “In a world of constant change, one of the few things that provides consistency in our lives is the upcoming release of another album by Drew Playland and his Playland recording project, and the increasingly likely fact that it will, in all probability, be essential listening! Playland 2 marks his fifth album of 2025 and is arguably his best to date. It showcases his penchant for eclecticism, that is so deeply rooted in originality that listeners are completely immersed in new aural discoveries with each repeated listen (…and I assure you, there will be many!). In tracks such as “Red Hot Ranch”, “Everyone in the Park Is In Love”, “Power Outage”, and “Interactions”, a sense of dulcet jangle reminiscent of Porch Kiss or Van Chamberlain is juxtaposed with the melodic, Lush-style aesthetic that is found at the most melodic end of the shoegaze spectrum. In contrast, the shoegaze influences in “Luv Like That”, “I Don’t Want To Live Here Anymore”, and “Vanity” take on a more muscular pop quality, with sounds oscillating between fuzzy Mo Troper-style power-pop modernity and the incessant energy of Motorists. When the intensity diminishes, a playful C86 vibe emerges, revealing the cult 80s jangly indie-pop style of contemporary ‘retro acts’ like Zenxith and I Wanna Be A Truck Driver. This is accompanied by a rich, fractured baritone that is perfectly unsuited to its surroundings, offering an entirely original blend of sounds. Drifting with consummate energy through both prolificity and originality without ever diminishing quality, Playland truly is a modern day act to be celebrated."

The ban on flute playing, different pockets you can exist in, and making music for Liam Gallagher’s clothing company. Oscar Robertson (Sholto, SFJ) "Oscar ‘Sholto’ Robertson is a drummer, multi-instrumentalist and producer based in London. Growing up with a love for jazz, soul, krautrock and 60s & 70s soundtracks.

Not getting rockinized, the first European tour, and happily getting duped. Jacob Rubeck (Surf Curse, Casino Hearts) "Surf Curse owes its existence to the indomitable spirit of rock and roll, or maybe it’s just the enduring power of friendship. Some would argue they’re the same thing. But they’ll remain timeless as long as kids aren’t willing to feel like outcasts in silence. In other words, forever. So it’s no surprise that Surf Curse, a band that has dedicated itself to expressing the heartbreaks and alienation and small triumphs of growing up, has managed to thrive in DIY spaces, grubby clubs and wherever teenagers and lapsed teenagers can be found online—from their humble origins on Myspace to their rise through Tumblr to Bandcamp and now the 2021 equivalent of MTV—their eight-year old song is a viral smash on TikTok."

Bumming some Wi-Fi, the creative juices of a day job, and the gateway to the San Juan Islands. "Like the coziness of nostalgia, the 4-track tape recorder is immediately evident during the guitar jangle that opens “Blue Eyed Open Sky”. Recorded in a tent cabin on a river in the musician’s hometown of Big Sur, California, the lo-fi aesthetic of Richard Tripps sophomore album was a deliberate choice, inspired by the analogue charm of tape, where the musician’s formative demos crossed paths with key influences like the VU and fellow Big Sur psych-folk outfit The Range of Light Wilderness."

The chilliest city in the world, going back to Windows 10, and hard Italian beds. Scott Montoya (Soft Palms, Happy Sundays, Studios For Studios) "Soft Palms, the brainchild of wife-and-husband duo Julia Kugel (The Coathangers, White Woods) and Scott Montoya (formerly of The Growlers), have announced the impending release of their self-titled debut album on July 31st via Everloving Records. The album is a feast of rich sounds and simple, comforting melodies threading together sock hop rock n’ roll, scrappy dream pop, and ethereal torch songs into a sultry, spacey, and sublime journey towards brighter horizons. The entire album gives off an aura of intimacy while also creating a broader, pastel colored world—a duality achieved through Montoya’s unique and meticulous recording process at the couple’s home studio the Centre Of Mental Arts (COMA), and the magisterial mastering job by longtime friend and collaborator Mick Boggis (Pogues, Mötorhead, 12 Monkeys, Joe Strummer, etc.) who has served as a mentor throughout Montoya’s recording career."
