Greetings Dead Freaks!
BrokedownPod returns with new music, a great guest, and some good old Grateful Dead. Andy Logan, founder of the Grateful Guitars Foundation and steward of Jerry Garcia's Alligator guitar joins me to discuss the mission of the foundation, the magic within these special instruments, a new benefit album, and the upcoming show to support the foundation.
The new album, which benefits Grateful Guitars, is called "Grateful: The Music Plays The Band" and features Oteil Burbridge, Dave Nelson Band, Dark Star Orchestra, Afro Dead and more. It's out now and can be found in physical and streaming outlets via this link.
The benefit concert is on August 13 at the Great American Music Hall (an auspicious date to be in that room) and features Melvin Seals, John Kadlecik, Pete Sears, Barry Sless, Dave Hidalgo and a bunch of other great players. Tickets are on sale now and you can learn more at the Grateful Guitars website.
Please do check out the mission of the Grateful Guitars foundation and consider offering your support.
Also in this episode, I spoke about a few new albums that I'm enjoying.
From Elkhorn, I raved about the fuzzed out explorations on their album "Other Worlds", out now from Sunrise Ocean Bender/Feeding Tube/Cardinal Fuzz/Deep Water Acres. I didn't mention that the joint release is a tribute to the founder of SOB, Kevin McFadin who passed last year. I had some interactions with McFadin myself and enjoyed a number of SOB releases. He will certainly be missed.
You can grip "Other Worlds" via Sunrise Ocean Bender's Bandcamp Page.
You can grip the other Elkhorn release, "The Red Valley" from VHF records; also on Bandcamp.
If you're on the hunt for some more new music, take a minute to peruse my Bandcamp collection. This is just stuff that I have picked up on the site over the years and I don't get anything from it other than the satisfaction that I've helped someone find something awesome.
Last but far from least, the latest from Seawind of Battery, "East Coast Cosmic Dreamscaper" is available for your own dreamscape accompaniment via Warhen records. Note that the CD has a bonus track not on the LP! Check it out on Bandcamp.
You can also grab my latest album, "So Below" from my Bandcamp page: JMHart.bandcamp.com and it you would like a BrokedownPod t-shirt or sticker or other merch in that vein, please head over to my Redbubble virtual merch table. All proceeds go straight toward hosting costs and are much appreciated.
