   "Try Again" (Joe Iconis & Family)

   Try Again was written in July 2015, after Joe's musical Be More Chill opened amid a wave and hype and received a show-killing review from the Grey Lady. The song deals in the specifics of an artist's life, but the hope is that it is relatable to everyone. It acts as the final song on Album because, like the album itself, it is heartfelt, a bit profane, fuzzy, ragtag, unexpected, and pure. Here's to... survival. http://BPN.fm/Album to get the music.

   "Last on Land" (Joe Iconis & Family)

   This group 11 O’Clock number is the centerpiece song from Joe's Bloodsong of Love. The entire original cast of that musical are featured on the track, along with a resplendent choir arranged by the oft-mentioned Joel Waggoner. Listen to find out if the written lyric is “lore” or “lure” and if “soul” is about a fish. This might be the song that best encapsulates the Iconis & Family ethos. http://BPN.fm/Album to get the music. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

   "Find the Bastard" (Eric William Morris)

   Find The Bastard is about being on a mission and is the "theme song" of Iconis' Bloodsong of Love, his spaghetti western musical. Joe and Jenn discuss the style of theatre songs as stand alone songs and how the end of Album's track list becomes more and more like a live album as it wraps up. Performed by Eric William Morris and the original cast of Bloodsong of Love. http://BPN.fm/Album to get the music. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
