Show Notes

The 800th episode of the podcast features Rod and Jill from Bloc Parents — a new group blending post-punk, power pop and more, featuring members of Duotang, The Sorels, The Windups, and the Telepathic Butterflies.

We talked about the group’s roots as a one-off tribute act to the band X, their debut EP, the dynamic between the two lead vocalists, and more!

Check 'em out this Saturday at Blue Note Park with Ultra Mega and Mahogany Frog.

Need more? Hear Rod on episode #172 (March 2016) as a member of Duotang and episode #519 (Sept. 2020) as a member of Silver Clouds.

This episode brought to you by our pals at Devine Shirt Company!
