The Load Out Music PodcastSeason 6: Road Warrior and Former Mötley Crüe Frontman John Corabi and The Dead Daisies Honor Blues Greats Success in popular music—yesterday and today—is often defined by a simple word: Perseverance. Indeed, it’s an endurance game steeped in paying dues, playing shows in front of minimal crowds over and again, gradually building a name and a sound, and finding an audience. Most successful musicians are lifers, and perhaps no one exemplifies that quite like John Corabi. He's fronted or played in bands ranging from SCREAM to The Union, Mötley Crüe, Ratt, and of course, one of his most enduring and successful projects—the critically acclaimed supergroup, The Dead Daisies. In 2022, Corabi relea...2025-08-1244 min

The Load Out Music PodcastSeason 6: Old Soul Anna Wescoat Brings Back the Craft of True Country MusicThey say that true country music is dead these days. Well, that is with the exception of a select few artists, old souls, who remain dedicated to the craft. Anna Wescoat is one of those artists and her first studio album, WORLD FAMOUS, is a testament to that spirit. With a style reminiscent of country greats like Patsy Cline and George Jones, Wescoat bean playing piano and singing with her family at a very young age, and that grew into a career after she studied music in college, where she learned to play more than 20 instruments.

The Load Out Music PodcastSeason 6: Electronic Jam Band 2Lot Brings Order to Thermodynamic Disorder Today we diverge from The Load’s Out’s typical menu of Americana and roots fare into something much more complex. The band 2Lot is not your typical collection of musicians. Indeed, creating its own unique brand of electronic jam music—fusing electronic elements with inspiration from classic jam bands, hip hop, soul, funk, jazz and rock—2Lot teems with intellectual prowess. After all, the band’s name comes from the second law of thermodynamics, as its goal is to resist entropy, or a lack of order or predictability, gradually declining into disorder.

The Load Out Music PodcastSeason 6: Lilly Hyatt Returns to Trinity Lane with Her Latest Album “Forever” -- a Punk-Infused Americana Treat There has never been more high-quality music being made than there is today. However, unless you’re looking for sugar-coated, synth-driven pop sounds—the discovery of that music is often left to the mercy of streaming algorithms. Take, for example, punk-infused Americana (think The Clash meets Loretta Lynn). There’s a torrent of it, particularly a number of very good female artists such as past-guest Sarah Borges, Lydia Loveless, Sarah Shook & the Disarmers, Jamie Wyatt and others. Arguably at the head of the line is our latest guest on The Load Out Music Podcast: the truly w...2025-04-2720 min

The Load Out Music PodcastSeason 3: Legendary Little Feat Pianist Bill Payne Finds Political Climate “Frightening” But Takes Solace in the Band's CommunityIn the late 1960s, Lowell George was playing rhythm guitar in Frank Zappa’s Mothers of Invention when Zappa suggested George leave the band. There are conflicting versions as to why: Zappa believed George was too talented to be a backing player, he did not like the drug references in George’s song “Willin’,” or Zappa didn’t appreciate George’s fondness for pot. Regardless, George left. He connected with Roy Estrada, who had played bass in the Mothers of Invention, drummer Richie Hayward and keyboardist Bill Payne. The foursome became Little Feat, one of the most distinctive an...2022-04-2954 min
The Load Out Music PodcastSeason 3: Unconventional Singer-Songwriter Jamie Lin Wilson Discusses Her Authentic Musical JourneyDespite being surrounded by the music of countless great female country singers growing up – Lorrie Morgan, Reba McEntire, Patty Loveless, Dolly Parton and others – Jamie Lin Wilson did not see herself pursuing a career in music. As she noted to me on the latest episode of The Load Out Music Podcast, there were “so many great, strong female artists that I really latched onto.” Yet, the fame that often accompanies playing music in front of thousands was a deterrent. “I would love to be a singer but don’t want to be famous,” Wilson said. “I’m good at math...2022-04-1254 min

The Load Out Music PodcastSeason 3: Ray Wylie Hubbard, One of the Greatest American Songwriters of the Past Half-CenturyPerhaps his name is unfamiliar to you, but amongst musicians, Ray Wylie Hubbard is considered one of the greatest songwriters of the past half-century. He is indeed revered for his unique, lyrical style that drips with irony and comes across about as plainspokenly as words can be stated. In truth, however, Hubbard often examines topics that are deeply intellectual and supported by a remarkable, rootsy blends of blues, rock, country and folk music. His knack for amusingly looking at the ugliness of humanity is well-demonstrated in my favorite Hubbard song: 1999’s “Conversation With The Devil” from h...2022-03-1030 min
