No Simple Road

This week on No Simple Road, Aaron, Mel, and Apple welcome Matthew McDonald, keyboardist of Perpetual Groove, for a deep and thoughtful conversation that celebrates 25 years of music, community, and the ever-evolving journey of creativity. Matthew takes us behind the scenes of Perpetual Groove’s 25th anniversary, reflecting on the band’s origins in the Southeast jam scene, the relationships that have carried them through decades of touring, and the powerful connection that forms between band and fans over years of shared musical experience. We talk about some of the special things the band has planned to celebrate a quarter century of playing, the lessons learned from life on the road, and what it means to keep a musical project vibrant after a quarter century. But the conversation goes beyond the stage. Matthew also introduces us to his newest passion project, Somnal, a veteran-owned wellness initiative that blends live music, yoga, breathwork, and immersive sound experiences. Drawing on more than 30 years of live performance experience, Matthew is creating intentional spaces where music becomes a vehicle for healing, presence, and connection. Matthew shares how his journey as a musician led him to explore mindfulness practices and how Somnal represents a natural evolution of the same intention that drives great live music: bringing people together in a shared, meaningful experience. As always on No Simple Road, this episode dives into the deeper layers — creativity, community, healing, and the paths that open when artists follow their curiosity beyond the stage. If you’re a fan of Perpetual Groove, jam bands, live music culture, or the intersection of music and wellness, this conversation is one you won’t want to miss.

This week on No Simple Road, Aaron, Mel, and Apple sit down with the our Brother and the endlessly creative Chris “Hollywood” English, a multi-genre musician known for lighting up stages with bands like Grateful Shred, the high-octane bluegrass of Dirty Blanket, Cuppa Soup and a host of other musical collaborations that keep the modern jam and roots scenes buzzing. Chris joins us for a deep dive into the winding road of a working musician — from the early sparks that ignited his passion for music to the moment he found himself bouncing between genres, bands, and stages across the country. We talk about the freedom that comes with musical exploration and why staying curious is the secret ingredient to longevity in the music world. The conversation flows through life on the road, the chemistry that forms between bandmates, and the ever-changing landscape of the jam band and festival scenes. Chris shares what it’s like to shift gears between projects like Proper English and Dirty Blanket, how those different musical spaces challenge him in unique ways. Like all things No Simple Road, this episode goes beyond just the notes and grooves. It’s about creativity, community, and the willingness to follow wherever the music leads — even when the road twists in unexpected ways. If you’re a fan of funk, bluegrass, jam bands, or the kind of musicians who refuse to stay in one lane, this conversation will resonate.

This week on No Simple Road, we welcome the vibrant souls behind Mojo Fest 2026 — the members of Bodhi Mojo — for a conversation that feels less like an interview and more like sitting around a late-night campfire with family. Aaron, Mel, and Apple dive deep with the band about how a dream, a community, and a whole lot of heart turned into one of the most exciting grassroots gatherings in Oregon. We explore the origin story of Mojo Fest, the intention behind creating a space where music, art, connection, and transformation can all coexist, and the realities of building an independent festival from the ground up. Bodhi Mojo shares what it takes to move from playing stages to building them — literally and figuratively — and how collaboration fuels both their music and their vision. The conversation flows through festival culture, the power of intentional gatherings, and the magic that happens when artists and audiences dissolve into one shared experience. We talk about the band’s creative process, their evolution as musicians, and why events like Mojo Fest matter now more than ever in a world hungry for authentic connection. Like all things No Simple Road, this episode goes beyond logistics and lineups. It’s about purpose, community-building, and following the spark that says yes even when the path isn’t clear. If you’ve ever felt the pull of live music as medicine, festival grounds as sacred space, or strangers becoming family under the lights, this conversation will resonate deeply.

This week on No Simple Road, we saddle up for a deep, honest ride with Andy Thomas — a songwriter cut from the cloth of hard roads, real stories, and the kind of truth you can’t fake. Andy joins Aaron, Mel, and Apple for a conversation that moves far beyond the surface, exploring the grit, grace, and lived experience behind the music. We dig into Andy’s journey blue collar to the stage — where independence matters, authenticity is everything, and songs are born from life rather than industry expectations. He shares stories from the road, the inspiration behind his songwriting, and shares some of the magic that went into his upcoming almub produced by Dave Schools himself! But like all things No Simple Road, this episode goes deeper than genre. We talk about resilience, creative freedom, and the tension between tradition and evolution. Andy opens up about the influences that shaped him, the lessons learned along the way, and why raw, emotional honesty still resonates louder than polish.

This week on No Simple Road, we sit down with Tyler Ramsey and Carl Broemel to talk about their stunning new collaborative album, Celestun. Known for their deeply expressive songwriting and textured guitar work, Tyler (formerly of Band of Horses) and Carl (of My Morning Jacket) join Aaron, Mel, and Apple for a conversation that drifts beautifully between craft, connection, and creative trust. We dive into the making of Celestun — how the project came together, the spirit of collaboration that shaped the songs, and the quiet magic that happens when two seasoned musicians lean into space rather than noise. Tyler and Carl share stories about writing, recording, and finding inspiration in place, nature, and long-standing musical friendships. The conversation explores the balance between solo artistry and partnership, the evolution of American indie folk and roots rock, and what it means to create from a place of patience in a fast-moving music world. At its core, this episode is about creative chemistry and honoring the journey that leads artists back to one another.

This week on No Simple Road, we drop into Bend, Oregon to hang with Spencer and Scottie of Spencer Marlyn Band, a rising force in the Central Oregon music scene and a perfect example of what happens when community, creativity, and live music all grow together.

This week on No Simple Road, we head north of the border to connect with Dylan Stone and Jesse Cobb from The Unfaithful Servants, the genre-bending roots outfit straight out of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Blending folk, bluegrass, old-time, and a healthy dose of irreverent spirit, this band brings a sound that’s as playful as it is deeply rooted. Aaron, Mel, and Apple sit down with the crew to talk about the origin of the band, the stories behind the songs, and what it means to build a musical life on an island where community and creativity go hand in hand. We dig into their songwriting process, the push and pull between tradition and experimentation, and how humor and honesty shape their approach to roots music. The conversation flows through touring life in Western Canada, the power of DIY scenes, and the importance of staying connected to the people who show up — night after night — to share the experience. The Unfaithful Servants reflect on how place influences sound, how collaboration fuels longevity, and why music is still one of the most powerful tools we have for connection. This episode is full of laughter, insight, and that unmistakable feeling you get when musicians are creating from a place of truth rather than trend.

This week on No Simple Road, we sit down with a true living legend — Jorma Kaukonen. Guitarist, songwriter, and founding member of Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna, Jorma joins Aaron, Mel, and Apple for a deep, thoughtful conversation that traces a lifetime devoted to music, meaning, and staying true to the song. We talk about the early days of acoustic blues, the electric explosion of San Francisco, and how curiosity and discipline shaped Jorma’s unmistakable voice on the guitar. He reflects on the evolution of American roots music, the difference between technique and feel, and the importance of listening — to the music, to each other, and to the moment. Jorma opens up about the long road of creation, the lessons learned from decades of performing, and the role of mentorship and teaching through the Fur Peace Ranch. We explore what it means to age with grace as an artist, how to keep learning, and why authenticity still matters more than ever in a fast-moving musical world. This conversation is rich with stories, wisdom, and quiet insight — a reminder that music isn’t about chasing the spotlight, but about honoring the path, the craft, and the community that forms along the way.

This week on No Simple Road, we sit down with Brad Zerman, founder of Seven Point Cannabis, to explore how cannabis, music, and culture intersect to create something bigger than business.
