On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Macie Stewart! Her new album, “When The Distance Is Blue,” has resonated with me in such a powerful way, and talking to her about some of the ideas and emotions behind it helped explain why. From there, we talk about ultimate earworms, the greatest band of the last 20 years, still getting shocked by Arthur Russell, the GOAT of GOATs, Dick Raaijmakers, Wilco, Labi Siffre, Lhasa de Sela + more!Listen to all of Macie’s picks HERE"When The Distance Is Blue”Macie On TourMacie’s WebsiteMacie on InstagramSongs of Our Lives is a podcast series hosted by Brad Rose of Foxy Digitalis that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.

On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Circuit des Yeux! My love for Haley Fohr’s work goes way, way back (shout out Night People), but this new record, “Halo On The Inside” is a different beast entirely. I am pretty much floored by it, so this was an absolute treat. We get into eternal love for the Bee Gees, Joëlle Leandre’s tearjerker, Neil Young at his worst, vibing with Jandek, the madman that is Lindsey Buckingham, Chris & Cosey, Brian Eno, Charli XCX, Van Halen, and more!Listen to all of Haley’s picks HERE“Halo On The Inside”Tour DatesCdY on InstagramSongs of Our Lives is a podcast series hosted by Brad Rose of Foxy Digitalis that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.

Ilyas Ahmed (Episode 17 REWIND) - Songs of Our Lives #75
**This episode was originally published on January 16, 2024, but with Grails announcing a new record this week, I thought it was a good time to revisit this classic episode**For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Ilyas Ahmed on the show. After reminiscing a bit about the 2007 Digitalis music fest, Bottled Smoke, we talked about both incredible albums Ilyas released in 2023 - his solo joint, “A Dream of Another,” and Grails’ “Anches En Maat.” We had a blast getting into the underrated shredding of Steve Stevens, Velvet Underground’s ability for tender destruction, where you go after making one of the all-time records as your debut, how Bono ruins some great songs, Guy Picciotto as an underappreciated lyricist, Scott Walker being Scott Walker, Q Lazzarus’s genius and tragedy, feeling good with Donna Summer, and loads more!Listen to all of Ilyas’s picks HEREIlyas Ahmed “A Dream of Another”Grails “Anches En Maat”ecoegoeSongs of Our Lives is a podcast series hosted by Brad Rose of Foxy Digitalis that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.
