Is the band Hockey Dad from Australia? Sure. Have we ever been there? No because that's like, really far away. We live in New York after all but that didn't stop us from covering them and their sweet sound this week. This Australian surfer duo grew up in the same neighborhood and now makes music together touring around the world. Not many bands you can compare that to, right? Well guess again because we're also covering The National this week, a band consisting of not one, but TWO sets of brothers (one of which is twins) and conveniently enough they recorded their album in a home made studio very close to where we record this podcast. We have upbeat garage rock recorded in a studio and downbeat studio rock recorded in a garage this week on No Singles and it's a helluva episode. Swing by, take a listen to the albums, and join our discussion.

Our longest episode yet. There's lots to be said about the shrinking of local music scenes all over, including here in New York City and what better person to discuss it with than Trey Durst of the fantastic local Brooklyn band Poor Frisco. Before launching into these albums by Dean Martin and The Strokes, two artists who first sought fame in the nightclubs and bars of New York, we get into the nitty gritty of what it's like to be coming up in a day and age where more and more venues ask for pay to play shows or hire DJ's lest they have to shut down due to the increase in music streaming and more of a need for constant promotion on every website you can think of.

Afterwards we dive into "Everybody Loves Somebody" by Dean Martin and "Room On Fire" by The Strokes. Two fantastic albums with such great music we kick back, relax and talk about good music with good friends on this episode of No Singles.

What do the sweet sounds of Tijuana and France have in common with one another? Honestly not too many when it comes to both of the albums we have for you this week. Still, we do have two different groups that essentially stem from their band leaders. This week we're featuring 2019's Children of The Slump by Marble arch. A soft guitar, synth thumping, strong indie vocals album straight from the melancholy of Lannion, France. Soon after we jump all the way back to 1965 to listen to Whipped Cream and Other Delights by Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass. This is an exciting album, featuring many players, songwriters, and all sorts of different instruments, all backed by a sound Alpert himself dreamed up while watching a bullfight in Mexico. Join us this week for another episode of No Singles!
