the interview show: Andy Shauf
I hung out with Prairie singer-songwriter and storyteller Andy Shauf one dark and stormy night. Andy‘s work is most interesting when he is weaving engaging tales of small town life. His 2015 record, The Bearer Of Bad News, is a great collection of stories about drug addicts, murderous lovers and other desperate figures clinging to the margins of life.
This year Andy Shauf signed to Arts & Crafts Records and Anti-Records, so his upcoming next record should take him to the next level. In fact this interview is your chance to get to know him first before everybody loves him.
The rain tapped away on the van roof as I chatted with this sweet but shy guy about everything from being a teenage fan of MXPX to his love of the clarinet to how to craft a good narrative in a song (and how autobiographical his stories should be) and much more! Listen to our chat.
Tracks played on the show…
1) Andy Shauf, The Bearer of Bad News (2015) “You’re Out Wasting” (mp3)
2) Andy Shauf, The Bearer of Bad News (2015) “I’m Not Falling Asleep”
3) Andy Shauf, The Bearer of Bad News (2015) “Wendell Walker”
4) Andy Shauf, Sam Jones Feeds His Demons EP (2012) “Sam Jones” (mp3)

SOFI TUKKER – Hey Lion
New York’s indie dance duo SOFI TUKKER is no nonsense with their new tropical pop single “Hey Lion.” Described by the band as a “sonic snack,” “Hey Lion” is Sophie and Tucker’s first song in English and as eclectic as their previous release “Matadora.”
“We want to welcome people into our version of this animal-world, where strength is soft and nobody is boss (except for youuuuu and your bodyyyyy which may love what it loves).”
A-Trak & Ookay – Only One
Fool’s Gold announces their forthcoming Night Shift compilation with a charged new single “Only One” from label founder A-Trak and Ookay. The compilation will showcase a selection of original songs and remixes including contributions from Bosco, Rome Fortune, Brenmar, and ManMan Savage.
