Based in Durham, North Carolina, The Glow Management is rapidly becoming one of the most prestigious artist representation agencies in the world. Featuring acts like Bowerbirds, Phil Cook, Wye Oak, Sylvan Esso, and more, they have helped build and support a community of musicians that puts their humanity before commerce and that strive for sustainability over brief flirtations with success.

Rusty Sutton, one of the principles and founders of The Glow, sits down with us to talk about the state of the industry, how to build a scene in the 21st Century, and why supporting your community isn’t just how we are going to make it out of this crisis intact, it is how we can build a better music industry heading into the future.

Over twelve years and six albums, Wye Oak's Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack have proven time and again that their talents know no boundaries. Their new LP The Louder I Call, The Faster It Runs, finds the experimentation that the duo has been pursuing over the past few years - both within the constraints of Wye Oak and through various solo projects (Flock of Dimes, El Vey, Dungeonesse)  - coalescing into a real evolution of the band that isn't just their strongest release to date, but one of the best albums of 2018. Join us as we try to suppress our fanaticism and explore what makes this record so singular, and such a milestone for one of indie rocks greatest bands.

PLUS! Phil Cook is BACK and here to help you through this life with the first track off of his upcoming LP,  People Are My Drug.

Jenn Wasner has spent the better part of the past decade slaying as one half of indie powerhouse Wye Oak. Earlier this year, she released her long-in-the-works solo project, If You See Me, Say Yes, under the name Flock Of Dimes.

Predictably, it TOO, slayed.

Before a recent tour stop in the nation's capital, Wasner joined us to talk about how Flock Of Dimes came about, creating versus destroying, relocation, and the power of small actions on the world around you. 

Did we mention how much Jenn Wasner slays?

The next great battle in the streaming wars may have just been started by Pandora with the announcement of their "half-price" streaming service. Is $4.99 a month the future of the music industry, or the beginning the end of it as we know it?

After a career conquering the indie airwaves as one half of Wye Oak, Jenn Wasner is breaking out on her own under the name Flock Of Dimes. 

Washington, DC's Aaron "Ab" Abernathy has spent the past few years acting as music director for hip-hop artist Black Milk and perfecting his performing chops with his band Nat Turner. Now Ab is about to break out on his own with a new LP,  Monologue, and we've got a taste of what's in store with his latest, Prince-tastic single, "I See You".

Hot on the heels of their latest release, The End Of Everything, DC's very own TYPEFIGHTER stops by the basement to talk about the new album, offer up some choice ideas for band names and the pros and cons of metal gods, Extreme. PLUS! Quinn joins Paul and Kevin in reviewing Shriek, the fourth album from Baltimore's Wye Oak, and Wasted Years, the latest 24 minutes of fury from hardcore super-group, OFF!
