School Nights Only

A year in review: We went to 11 shows together last year, and we released 20 episodes of this podcast. Was it worth it? We agree it was. Get the School Nights Only 2025 recap — best shows, most memorable moments, and an update on the rules?

Royel Otis
Sir Chloe
Surf Hat

Globeville has at least two places you should visit. One of them serves pretty good fried okra, the other has peacock chairs. In this episode, we brief Matt on a recent Surf Hat show and highlight 2025 releases from some of our favorite SNO artists. This was recorded weeks ago, btw. Blame Chris.

SNO recaps a very unofficial Friday night with Wolf Alice at the Ogden (and Chris is still freaking out). Then we wander into grunge-pop gush mode over Sir Chloe’s Thursday night set at Summit.

School Nights Only is back. After two months away from the studio, and as our podcast rankings plummet in North Africa, we resume the adventure. This one features a recap of Royel Otis at the Mission Ballroom.

Kerry Alexander of Bad Bad Hats joins SNO to chat about Lost Lake “diva mode,” the new Psychic Readings cover album, and why the best shows often happen in tight little clubs. Plus: living room tour, under-the-radar recs, and Badfinger over Bad Company.
