Adding to the ((NOISE))

Lost and Found is a band that needs no introduction. This probably sounds strange because there's little chance you've heard of them, but what I mean is that no introduction I can give them would do them justice. They're a very unique duo whose music can only truly be understood by way of one of their incredibly entertaining live shows. You probably haven't heard of them unless you have a friend who's a fan, as most of their audience comes from word of mouth. And despite the fact that they may be new to you, they've been touring the world and playing their music for over 25 years. While it may be necessary for you to see what they have to offer in person in order to fully "get it", this session is my attempt to share the wonder that is Lost and Found with you all, in hopes that, at the very least, you'll want to hear more and go to a show next time they come to Houston (or whichever town you happen to live in). I've been a fan for nearly 14 years and their music has gotten me through some tough times. So I hope you enjoy this very special podcast that I was so very lucky to have been a part of...

This was my first Robert Ellis show in over a year. Even though I missed a few songs due to some recording hiccups, you certainly won't go hungry after sinking your teeth into this hearty performance. It's missing a few songs but there's still a dozen or so to enjoy. And for those of you who feel the need to mindlessly cheer when you hear your hometown's name mentioned by someone on stage, there's a song he wrote about living in Houston. Woo! Enjoy some rollickin' good tunes...
Edit: Until further notice, this episode will be unavailable. If all goes well, look for it to be reposted sometime in 2014.

My next musical guest, Sergio Trevino, is the singer/songwriter/guitarist of one of my favorite bands by the name of Buxton. He also has a side project called Ancient Cat Society, which plans to release their second album sometime this year. Sergio was kind enough to accept my invitation and play a variety of songs, both unheard by me and a couple of my favorites. We also had a lively discussion about his songwriting style and what it's like to be involved in the music industry.

My first musical guest is the talented frontman of Sleeper Street, Gabe Mckinzie. He played 5 songs and we talked about a variety of things, including music, unhealthy food and the economy. It's always nice talking to Gabe and I'm really glad I was able to not only see his musical prowess in person but to also share it with you.

This solo show at Leon's Lounge was a great experience. The stage was in a small room to the side of the bar and was filled by 15-20 enthusiastic friends of Sergio Trevino. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the second set he played, but if the first set was any indication, it was surely a good time for all. He played songs by his bands Buxton and Ancient Cat Society, as well as a few new songs. I enjoyed every minute of it, as I'm sure you will when you listen.
