Dallas Wax: Southern Boys in Brooklyn, a Shovel Drag at Midnight, and a Song Nobody's Heard Yet Episode 43
<p>We started this one differently. No theme song. No intro. Just the video for "Desert Moon" — dark, shot in a Savannah swamp at midnight with one light on the back of a truck. That's your introduction to Dallas Wax.</p><p>Ryan Dallas Wax (yes, that's his real name) moved from Peachtree City, Georgia to New York City, found four other Southern guys who'd all ended up there, and formed a five-piece band playing punk-soaked psychedelic blues rock that Gary compared to Billy Idol stumbling into a Sturgill Simpson record. They've been on tour. They just booked Austin City Limits Festival. Their debut album Metanoia drops June 19th. And they sent us the first track — "Bluff" — a week early.</p><p>His mom called the Burt Show. He showed up late. He had no shoes on. It was a great time.</p><p>Links:</p><ul><li><p>Dallas Wax: www.dallasWaxband.com</p></li><li><p>Pre-save Metanoia (June 19): https://awal.ffm.to/257ykd6</p></li><li><p>Every band we've featured: https://www.bynhopod.com</p></li><li><p>Spotify playlist: search "Bands You've Never Heard Of"</p></li><li><p>Email: bynhopod@gmail.com</p></li><li><p>Support & merch: https://www.bynhopod.com (click "Support")</p></li></ul><p>0:00 - "Desert Moon" Cold Open3:04 - Hello & Welcome4:09 - Gary Reacts: Netflix Should Have These Guys8:19 - Who Is Dallas Wax?12:21 - Are They Going for It?

Are You Getting Paid What You're Worth? Cliff Adams of MoneyGigs Has the Answer
<p>Most gigging musicians have no idea what they're actually making per hour. Cliff Adams did the math — and it wasn't pretty.</p><p>After 120 gigs in a year, Cliff (jazz pianist, IT veteran, former #1 Uber driver in Cincinnati) realized his gigs were often paying less than minimum wage once drive time, setup, and rehearsal were factored in. So he built MoneyGigs — an app that tracks gigs, rates venues, and tells you exactly what you're worth before you say yes.</p><p>This is a special industry insider episode. No music discovery — just an honest conversation about the business side of being a gigging musician.</p><p><strong>First 100 listeners get FREE access to all paid features.</strong> Invite code: BYNHOFREE</p><p>Links:</p><ul><li><p>MoneyGigs: https://www.themoneygigs.com</p></li><li><p>Invite code + free access: https://www.bynhopod.com</p></li><li><p>Email: bynhopod@gmail.com</p></li></ul><p>0:00 - Welcome: Special Insider Episode1:40 - Meet Cliff Adams & MoneyGigs5:00 - Cincinnati's #1 Uber Driver — and What It Taught Him10:17 - The Spreadsheet That Changed His Gigging Career13:57 - Cliff's Background: 49 Years of Piano, Jazz & Salsa18:43 - Why He Came Back to Gigging21:06 - Before, During & After: The 3 Stages of a Gig24:50 - The Yelp for Musicians Feature30:35 - Nursing Homes Are Untapped Gig Gold40:22 - People First: Cliff's Two Rules45:43 - On Playing for Free52:01 - TikTok, Shorts & Reddit Strategy1:02:01 - Podcast Length: Does It Matter?13:50 - The App Is Free — Here's How It Works16:29 - Invite Code: First 100 Listeners Free25:01 - Wrap-Up</p>

Yes Officer: One Guy, One Island, and a Grammy-Winning Producer Who Bought a Church Episode 41
<p>Stick around to the end. The opening track from Yes Officer's brand new album — Ignore the Town Crier — plays in fullafter the credits.</p><p>Jeremy Harnum is a one-man band from St. John's, Newfoundland making "loud and abrasive music for those who like loud and abrasive music." He grew up in a town of 450 people. Came out in 2018. Taught himself to record. Made three albums entirely alone. Then a Grammy-winning LA producer — the guy behind Adele, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, The Greatest Showman — bought an old church in Jeremy's tiny hometown and started a record label. Jeremy sent a cold pitch. That became Ignore the Town Cryer, out now.</p><p>JR found this band while researching Newfoundland for a community theater production of Come From Away. Hefound a podcast called Off Da Rock Radio, went through 25 artists, and landed here.</p><p>In part one, Gary hears four songs, from 2017 to the brand new single. In part two, Jeremy joins live.</p><p>Links:</p><p><a href="https://yesofficer.bandcamp.com/track/salt-in-the-wound">https://yesofficer.bandcamp.com/track/salt-in-the-wound</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1zT8HHOprlVgO78X9rjcQB?si=911aacf7ff9a46a6">https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1zT8HHOprlVgO78X9rjcQB?si=911aacf7ff9a46a6</a></p><p><br></p><p>0:00 - Special Note: New Album Is Out + Post-Credits Song3:42 - Come From Away & Why JR Went to Newfoundland9:36 - The Bio: "Loud and Abrasive Music"13:11 - "You've Still Got Time" — 201719:19 - Gary Reacts: DC Hardcore, No Click Track24:54 - Gary Picks "Crisis Actor" — 201927:28 - Gary Reacts: He's Growing29:22 - The Vocals-in-the-Mix Debate34:54 - "Identity Parade" — 202044:47 - "Salt in the Wound" — New Single51:17 - Gary Reacts: Five Bands in One Song1:55:38 - PART 2: Jeremy Harnam Joins Live58:27 - Origin: One-Man Band Since 20172:07:43 - How a Song Gets Made: Guitar Riff First10:32 - The Recording Process12:33 - The RPM Challenge: Album in 28 Days16:28 - The Thematic Arc: All Four Albums Explained22:20 - "Identity Parade": Why Nothing Was Right24:34 - Gary: "Did You Find Rage Against the Machine?"27:32 - The Supertramp Compliment29:08 - Greg Wells: The Cold Pitch That Worked30:02 - A Grammy Producer Bought a Church in His Hometown36:10 - "This IS Newfoundland Music"42:00 - How Greg, Mark & Robert Produced the Album45:00 - Finally Bringing the Vocals Up47:48 - Live Shows: Drummer Shortage & What's Next3:03:44 - Vinyl: 100 Copies Only05:58 - He Does His Own Album Art (He's Also a Photographer)3:15:26 - Peace Out3:16:52 - POST-CREDITS: Full Opening Track from *Ignore the Town Cryer*</p>
