Hi. Let's talk to independent musicians! My name's Ronn Benway.
I've worked selling music for a long time. This is a field recording show documenting independent music in this modern age. I have many artistic friends you've maybe never heard of. Let's travel around, talk to them and hear what they do. Hopefully we'll meet some strangers along the way. We might ask what they do too.

Another car session recorded in Fabulous Las Vegas. I talk music and nerd-rock songwriting with a young musician named David Michael Thomas who plays in local bands 3d6 and Time Crashers. He sat in the back seat of his car and sang songs about Star Wars, dragons, armageddon and video games. I sat outside. He's a very talented musician! Enjoy and share with everyone you know.

After a long quarantine hiatus the RBTTFAS webcast is back. I meet with a talented songwriter from Las Vegas named Brenden K. Jones. He performs under the moniker The Midnight Disease. He sat in a car and I sat 6 feet away outside of the car. I snaked a sterilized clip on mic with an 8 foot cable through the window and we made a webcast. Just like Clancy would. Thanks for listening and don't be afraid to share this with your friends.

I met Whitney Mongé more than a decade ago while she and I were busking in the Pike Place Market. She is now a staple of the Seattle music scene. She gigs around the city as a solo or with a power trio playing her original, soulful music with much success. You can find her at The Hard Rock Cafe on Valentine's Day for the third year in a row. She met me in a small office in the Pike Place Market to reminisce and look to the future. Thanks to Megan Lee for loaning us the office to meet in. Thanks for listening. Please leave a review wherever you listen to this podcast.

Jonah Ray lives in Los Angeles. We used to work in a record store together in Venice Beach. He's is on tour working on material for a new comedy record. He was nice enough to invite me backstage at The Fremont Abbey in Seattle to record a podcast episode. He sings a few Mel Brooks songs and a "Weird" Al cover from his new album on Asian Man Records. We talk about old days and new days and MST3K. Jonah, Cash and Neil make a podcast called Jonah Raydio that I love and you should listen to next. Thanks for listening.

Hi. Thanks for listening. I talked Carly Calbero into walking down to Steinbeck park in between busking sets to record a podcast. It was around 50° as we sat between the tourists, seagulls and playing babies just a stones throw from Pike Place Market. Carly has an enchanting voice and a great songwriting style. Cheers!

I met Emery Carl in the Pike Place Market in Seattle around 2008. He and I were featured in a movie called Find Your Way : A Buskers Documentary together in the last decade. We got together at Mystr E Studio in Ballard to get into some heavy conversation and play some of his original music.

Casey Cochran writes songs and works the re-building of The Mayflower. On the recommendation of James Maple we met at the German Club. We talked about his past football career and how he writes songs and boats. Thanks to JJ Sheffer for executive producing again. Thanks to the German club for letting us record the sessions there. Fun fact: unbeknownst to us, during our interview upstairs paramedics helped a guy not die in the bar downstairs. Good times. #rbttfas #benwaybop #ronnbenwaytalkstofriendsandstrangers #podcast #musicshow #podcasting #musicpodcast #independentmusic #originalmusic #webcast #indie #acousticmusic #guitar #acousticguitar #mystic #connecticut #benwaybop #shipwright #mayflower

I saw a guy singing in the street ( a bunch of times) and asked him to be on my podcast. His name is Jakob Jess. His new album of original songs is called "3am In My Bed". We walked to a noisy public park right next to the seattle freeway. We talked about busking and he played a few songs and a manic human on the brink of sanity flipped a metal table over a few feet from the interview. Life is a highway. Cheers, listen, share, love yourself. #rbttfas #benwaybop #ronnbenwaytalkstofriendsandstrangers #podcast #jakobjess #podcaster #indierock #indiemusic #seattle #freewaypark #ronnbenway #pikeplacemarket
I met and talked with a talented Seattle musician named Ty Keenen. We sat on the pier on a beautiful puffy cloud day. We talk about jazz, busking, owning your music and the number 3. We got asked to stop playing where we were recording ("private" property) so there's one of Ty's great studio songs at the end. Enjoy!
