“I initially thought ‘This is going to feel like freedom. I can call the shots. I can do whatever I want.’ But if I’m honest, at first, it just felt really lonely. And then eventually, through a lot of healing and digging in, it really brought forward some internal stuff in my life that I’m really grateful for, because I feel a lot more solid in my own skin. It does feel like freedom over here now, but it was a messy route to get there.” This week on Vinyl Emergency, Canadian singer/songwriter Tenille Townes details her decision to leave the Nashville major label machine. Plus, the nuts and bolts of bringing her new album The Acrobat — her first self-release — from a laptop in her bedroom to turntables around the globe, and all the dollars and doubt that came with it.

NEW EPISODE: “Novels, sculptures, a beautiful leaf — ideally, everything is a picture of a bigger picture, and reveals shadows of other things. But songs have such a much longer life because of this great mystery within them. A song’s not vague because the songwriter *can’t* say what it’s about. It’s that all of these images more accurately describe each moment that they’re going for, in a way that a linear story might fall short.” Recent Grammy-winners @imwithherband join @vinylemergency to discuss their favorite live albums, in lead up to their own — Sing Me Alive — coming later this month.

“The only thing that gets me up in the morning is ‘Today, I could write that song that could get everybody singing the same tune.’ This delusion of grandeur that masses of people could be whistling some melody you wrote, or singing your lyrics.” Andrew Bird guests on this week’s @vinylemergency to discuss the new 3LP anniversary package for The Mysterious Production of Eggs, and overcoming his initial struggles bringing it to life two decades ago. Plus, when exactly his trademark whistle became part of his musical DNA, and how the current symphonic tour he’s on is strategically sequenced much like a vinyl record. Catch Andrew on the road, and hear the conversation on your favorite audio app! ⚡️🎧 Episode art by @brettandrewmiotti #andrewbird #themysteriousproductionofeggs #vinylemergency #musicpodcast

“The basic civil rights that we enjoy — the right to a fair trial or the worker’s right to a weekend, something so culturally taken for granted — these are things that were fought for. These are things that cost people time, sweat, tears and blood, in some cases. And in the context of that, it’s just important to take stock. Progress can be made again, and it can be lost again. There’s real people behind those gains, and there’s nothing grandiose about it; it was just people making informed decisions based on their own conscience, and not deciding to sleep on it. And we owe that conscience so much.” Enjoy an encore presentation of @vinylemergency this week with guest @hozier , recorded at @pilgrimagefestival 2018.

I usually plan my Record Store Day itinerary weeks in advance — sometimes even traveling across state lines — but this year, I admit, it snuck up on me a bit. Thus, I went through most of a normal Saturday, figuring I’d sit this one out. Yet, I’m thrilled to report I made it to @rediscover_records in nearby Elgin just under the wire, when my brilliant and beautiful wife voiced how silly it would be if I didn’t visit at least one shop on my favorite day of the year. Had to snag @thejayhawksofficial ’s Dutch sessions from 1997-2000. Incredible performances from an all-time favorite band of mine. Thanks to shop owner @rwagnerful for all he does! I’ve known him long enough to remember when his “store” was just the backroom of an antique shop. So glad to see Rediscover’s growth and how it’s become such a part of the Fox Valley arts community. 🏆 #recordstoreday #rediscoverrecords #thejayhawks #vinylemergency

Louder for the people in the back. UPDATE: Many have asked where to get this shirt! It’s from @rushmorrecords (Milwaukee) but not available online. Visit them in person — or give ‘em a call and they’ll be excited to ship you one — like the old days!! #recordstores @recordstoredayus #rushmorrecords

“For a long time, (Bob Dylan) has been at the confluence of folk, protest music, artistic integrity, poetry and surrealism. And, in some strange way, I think that’s a really big part of what we like to do with this project: Trying to find a midpoint between saying something artistically valid and saying it in a way that is also kind of grounded and in touch with the roots of the music we all started playing.” This week on @vinylemergency — while currently atop the Billboard UK Jazz & Blues Charts — instrumental trio Mammal Hands discusses their wide swath of influences, and why their latest album ‘Circadia’ feels like a new chapter for a band already six records in. 🎷🥁 🎹 Listen on your preferred audio platform! 🎧⚡️ #mammalhands #vinylemergency #ukmusic #musicpodcast Podcast logo and episode artwork: @brettandrewmiotti
