Phil Solem of Molland, Solem & Miller and The Rembrandts
Phil Solem of Molland, Solem & Miller and The Rembrandts joins us for a conversation that covers a lot of musical ground!
We dig into a very special Chuck Berry tribute album recorded with the late Joey Molland of Badfinger and Jeff Miller — including the story behind Joey’s long-held dream of making the record and how the guys approached reimagining songs by one of rock ’n’ roll’s all-time greats.
Plus, Phil talks about his band T.H.R.U.S.H, his politically charged solo song “Where Do We Go From Here?,” the current state of The Rembrandts, an unreleased album that fans may still get to hear, and yes, a little bit about the Friends theme song!
From Chuck Berry to “I’ll Be There for You,” there’s plenty to dig into.

Matt Langston of Starterpacts and Eleventyseven
Matt Langston from Starterpacts joins Pop Fuss!
If you know Matt from EleventySeven, you already know he’s no stranger to the music business. But with Starterpacts, he’s starting a new chapter — one that gives him the freedom to explore a fresh musical identity and tackle some deeply personal subjects.
We talk about the inspiration behind the project, the evolution of EleventySeven, and Matt’s experiences in the Christian music industry. He also opens up about the stories behind songs like “Small Town Gods,” “Rage Quitting,” “Hotel Pool,” and “Under Ageless,” where infectious pop melodies meet lyrics that dig into religious trauma, personal struggles, and the complexities of life.
We also discuss the latest single, “Only Thunder,” the upcoming album, and the challenges of making independent music in an ever-changing industry.
It’s a candid, thoughtful conversation about music, identity, and finding the freedom to create on your own terms.

4 artists - 1 house with Cas Cleo, Eliza Harrison Smith, JoJo Scott & Maddie Ettrich
4 ARTISTS. 1 HOUSE. ONE REALLY FUN CONVERSATION.
What happens when four independent music artists share a house in Nashville? Turns out, a whole lot!
Cas Cleo, Eliza Harrison Smith, JoJo Scott, and Maddie Ettrich join Pop Fuss for a conversation about life under one roof — where songwriting, collaboration, career advice, and the occasional roommate intervention are all part of the deal.
We talk about how they ended up living together, how they inspire and support one another creatively, and what it's like navigating the music business with three other artists just down the hall.
Plus, we get into the important stuff: Who's the house chef? Who's most likely to adopt a stray animal without consulting the others? Who has the messiest bedroom? And who's most likely to talk their way out of a speeding ticket?
It's a fun, candid look at friendship, music, and a pretty unique chapter in the lives of four emerging artists.
Be sure to follow Cas @cas.cleo and check out her new single, "Pick Me Up."
Find Eliza @elizaharrisonsmith and listen to her latest EP, Same Old Dream.
Check out JoJo @jojoscottmusic and stream her recent EP, Wild Flower.
Follow Maddie @maddieettrich and listen to her new single, "Mermaid."
