Music and politics have always collided—think Bob Dylan in the '60s or protest songs against wars—but in recent years (especially 2024–2026), it's exploded with social media amplifying everything. Artists' views alienate half their audience, politicians steal songs without permission, and endorsements become headlines. In this podcast The Trout talks about what happens when musicians make political statements and take political stands for or against politicians. www.TheTroutShow.com You...
Coming up, Wake the Nile a new band from Austin, Texas. Don, straight out of Uganda, and Dominic, Tampa Bay kid, two strangers who crashed into each other in Austin last August.

No hype, no big labels yet, just pure chemistry and killer tunes. Their debut album drops this year. Trust me, this is the kind of band that ...
Welcome to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: Money Talks, Rock Walks—the podcast that pulls back the curtain on Cleveland's shiny glass pyramid. Once built to honor the raw, guitar-driven legends who shaped rock 'n' roll—from Chuck Berry to the Beatles—it now feels more like a tourist trap than a temple. We dive into the snubs: Jethro Tull, Boston, Steppenwolf—bands that sold millions, packed arenas, and defined the '70s, yet never got a single nomination. Meanwhile, pop icons like Mariah Carey, Pi...

From studio wizardry to live fire—he's the heartbeat behind some of pop's biggest...
Enya. The woman who sold eighty million records without ever stepping on stage. No tours. No selfies. Just layers of her own voice, stacked like cathedral glass, and a castle she calls home.

Welcome to a little slice of something real. I'm talking about Rob and Sky—two musicians who don't just write songs, they live them.

In the electric haze of New York City, where dreams clash like subway cars at rush hour, Nikita Lev emerged—a force of indie-rock grace wrapped in folk's raw whisper. Born and raised amid the skyscrapers, she was weaned on chamber strings and '90s band riffs, picking up flute and piano as a kid before trading them for a guitar at ten, scribbling her first songs under bedroom posters of icons who dared to bare their souls.
