9:00

Paul Sanchez had been a reveling singer and songwriter for decades--it was his entire life. But when tragedy struck the one thing he loved more than his music, he realized that his performing days were numbered. Most of the music in this piece was by Paul Sanchez, including songs from the musical he is currently working on, Nine Lives.

9:32

Beats Antique kinda sounds like if personifications of the world's traditional music all got high and went clubbing together--a blend of Middle-Eastern, Balkan, African and American jams. Drummer Tommy Cappel tells a story of how he came to play Balkan music. His tale is set in the famous Gu?a Festival in Serbia, where his crazy, sexy Extra Action Marching Band came up against the world's best brass bands.…

Butch Vig is a legendary producer. You might have heard of his work--Nirvana's Nevermind, maybe? He's also the drummer for Garbage, one of the most prolific and recognized rock bands of all time. So Butch has performed a lot--over 1,000 shows, all counted. But his most memorable show of all was in Serbia. In a castle. Surrounded by zombies. All the music in this piece was by Garbage.

Stagedive is a podcast where musicians tell their stories, and their music brings them to life. Grouplove's album, Never Trust A Happy Song, featuring their hit single Tongue Tied, is a swirling, bursting playground of an album. But the studio in which they recorded the album had a decidedly different vibe. Band members Christian Zucconi, Andrew Wessen and Ryan Rabin tell us about recording in Ryan's apartment building and the shady host of neighbors that almost got them arrested. Thanks so much to Grouplove for the interview and for the use of their music! And thanks, BFD!…

Stagedive is a podcast where musicians tell their stories, and their music brings them to life. Justice is now an international sensation, with a Grammy, a gold record and sold-out epic shows across the world.

Stagedive tracks their evolution by going behind the scenes of their hit single Waters of Nazareth. Thanks so much to Justice for the interview and for their music.

Stagedive is a podcast where musicians tell their stories, and their music brings them to life. In Thao's family, nobody really talked about anything significant besides what they were going to eat for dinner.

Stagedive is a podcast where musicians tell their stories, and their music brings them to life. Geographer's Mike Deni is such a cutie, but believe it or not, there was a time when he had a hard time gettin' chicks. As an English major studying Petrarchan poetry, he figured he could win them over with his words. But then he had to live up to the lyrics he was spoutin'. Thanks so much to Geographer and Mike Deni--please go buy their latest album, Myth, and listen to Animal Shapes! Thanks also to Snap Judgment, who originally ran this story.

Stagedive is a podcast where musicians tell their stories, and their music brings them to life. When Red Wanting Blue's Scott Terry had tour bus issues on the road, he thought that his band was done for. But the kindness of strangers (and strangers' beers) had more power than he anticipated.
