Early in August, Record Store Day held their annual "Summer Camp" meeting in New Orleans, once again returning to the lovely Hotel Monteleone, in the heart of the French Quarter, for a few days of meeting, schmoozing, and, frankly, Big Easy cuisine.

Guitarist, singer, songwriter, producer David Rawlings, whose most recent album with Gillian Welch, Woodland, was one of the best records of 2024, sat down...

This summer, the Ohio-based musical group Caamp released theirfifth and most adventurous album to date, Copper Changes Color which they call "a celebration of the dreams and bonds that endure." Co-produced by Beatriz Artola (Fleet Foxes, Sharon Van Etten) and Tucker Martine (My Morning Jacket, R.E.M.), their songs are raw and vulnerable, alternating between breezy anthems and pensive meditations, and the performances are honest and intuitive to match. Founding member Evan Westfall tells us about building a record upon what they band refer to as "love and trust in the face of doubt and...

Director Amy Berg (West of Memphis, Janis: Little Girl Blue), talks to us about her moving and emotional new documentary It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley, which has its theatrical debut this week. The Record Store Day Podcast is a...

On July 22, 2025, we lost Birmingham-born rock vocalist and cultural icon Ozzy Osbourne, rock's "prince of darkness," at the age of 76. His death, from complications due to Parkinson's Disease, ends a career spanning five decades, in which he pioneered an entire subgenre of heavy metal music, as frontman for Black Sabbath, before going on to an even bigger career as a solo artist, where he is credited for introducing the guitarist Randy Rhoads to the wider rock world, and for creating the wildly popular Ozzfest tours. Then, when he'd done it all, he and members of his family, Jack, Kelly, and...

Our guest Chris Stamey's new album is called Anything Is Possible, and during long and fruitful musical career, he's done just about everything. As a founding member of The dB's he helped define an era of 1970s indie rock and power pop, and his solo work (and duo work with his fellow dB Peter Holsapple) only widened his songwriting vocabulary. Among the distinguished guests joining Stamey on Anything Is Possible are another NC music legend Mitch Easter, plus some friends of the podcast, including The Lemon Twigs, Pat Sansone (Wilco), Marshall Crenshaw, and many more. Lately, Chris has been...

Daryl Hall has been one of the most identifiable voices and songwriters on records and radios for over half a century and he's still doing it.

And as a solo artist he's made landmark records like Sacred Songs (with King Crimson's Robert Fripp) and last year's D album, a collaboration...

Filmmaker Mark Romanek's early love of cinema not only lead him to early acclaim at Sundance for his 1986 film Static, but his later award-winning feature films like One Hour Photo (2002), and Never Let Me Go (2010). But it also lead him to become one of the most prolific and identifiable auteurs of the 1990's music video boom, with a client list that includes Jay-Z, Beck, Fiona Apple, Beyonce, Nine Inch Nails, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, David Bowie, and even Johnny Cash. In this week's Special Episode, we take a detour from chats with musical artists and record producers to talk...

Ken Pomeroy is a 22-year-old Oklahoma born singer songwriter whose songs have wide open spaces where animals and memories run wild. Her Cherokee name, ᎤᏍᏗ ᏀᏯ ᏓᎶᏂᎨ ᎤᏍᏗᎦ, roughly translates to "little wolf," and on her recent album, Cruel Joke (in stores now from Rounder Records) you can hear the influence of her Native American heritage in the natural images of her songs like "Coyote," "Wolf In Sheep's Clothing," and "Cicadas," (featuring John Moreland) the latter of which was recently featured in Sterlin Harjo's milestone Hulu series, Reservation Dogs.
