New episode! Finally! Featuring with tracks from their most recent and previous release. Episode available wherever vintage podcast episodes can be had. Links in the bio if you’re too lazy to do that.

Sycamore Bones has just wrapped up their second full length album titled, “The Trouble, With Love”. This album is packed with the same story telling and lyricism you’ve come to expect from the North Carolina quintet with an added touch of 90’s alternative rock. A concept album tackling different stages of love, the songs run the gamut from the fuzzy to the folky and showcase a broader range of influence when compared with their previous work.

Traversing musical genres to give an energy filled performance of alt-country, folk, rock and Americana, the heart-felt lyrics and harmonic melodies of Sycamore Bones have graced the stages of music venues across the region for the last ten years. Throughout this time they have developed a following around their originality and their ability to invite audiences into their music through strong three-part harmonies, undeniably honest lyrics, and a captivating stage presence.The sound of Sycamore Bones has been likened to such bands as Wilco, John Prine, REM, Old 97s, and Watchhouse, while developing their own unique brand of Americana.

Honestly for a year when I only put out a few episodes, did absolutely no advertising and almost no marketing, and let do most of my posts this wasn’t too bad. I’ll put some more new episodes out eventually but maybe that would jinx it? Anyway I’m equally grateful to all the listeners and to the musicians that come on the podcast. You’re all very special to me even though I would never tell you that in real life and maybe even imply the opposite.

All locations, all genres, all ages, all everything welcome. Except no parody songs. Unless they’re about me and very po...

All locations, all genres, all ages, all everything welcome. Except no parody songs. Unless they’re about me and very positive.

Ask any clarification questions below.

Yes of course I’m going to sneak some of my own songs in there somewhere. But I’m going to make up a fake band name.
