After a brief delay we are back! 💪 Grab your megaphone and a stein of Breck Brew 📣🍺 because things get loud and bluegrassy at Oktoberfest in Littleton! This chaotic, hilarious, and heartwarming episode dives deep with Silas Herman (yes, Vince Herman’s kid!) and The Tone Unit as they talk about music, fatherhood, train songs, and why the bassist never gets to solo.

We’ve got fiddle stories, dad wisdom, band chemistry, and more “you can’t say that on mic” moments than a live mic should allow. From ghosted DMs 🎻 to mandolin therapy sessions 💆‍♂️, this one’s got all the Colorado bluegrass vibes with a splash of chaos and a chug of beer foam.

• 🍼 Bluegrass Baby Boom: Silas is becoming a dad while starting a band—what could go wrong?
• 🎶 The Tone Unit Origin Story: Born from jams, ghosted messages, and the Colorado bluegrass scene’s finest.
• 🪕 Train Songs Are a Lifestyle: Nobody knows why we’re obsessed—but we are. Choo choo. 🚂
• 🎻 Fiddle Philosophy: Carson warns us: don’t pick up a violin unless you enjoy ergonomic nightmares.
• 🧘 Band Zen: Keep your jams fresh—mix up your crowd, your chords, and your breweries.
• 💀 Bass Player Problems: “You can’t please Matt.” (Unless you pay him. 💸)
• 🤘 Festival Dreams: Catch The Tone Unit lighting up stages from Colorado to who-knows-where next summer.

Big love to Silas Herman & The Tone Unit for the laughs, the tunes, and the train whistles 🚂. If you had half as much fun listening as we did recording, go hit follow, share it with a friend, and we’ll see you next time — probably hungover, definitely happy. Cheers, y’all! 🍻”
