Ep. #1084: Janel Leppin

Janel Leppin returns to discuss her new solo album Slowly Melting and Pluto in Aquarius by Janel Leppin’s Ensemble Volcanic Ash, her ability to compartmentalize her visual art impulses from her musical ones, why she frequently releases more than one album on the same day, how Susan Alcorn and David Lynch remain constant inspirations, an eye-opening Mdou Moctar tour, making protest jazz music in a politically volatile time, her compelling and dynamic use of the cello as a lead instrument in jazz expressions, her tribute to Deerhoof, why she employs fuzz and distortion, loving pedals and naming songs after different ones, upcoming shows, another new record, other future plans, and much more.

Jason P. Woodbury returns to discuss the new, self-titled album by Jason P. Woodbury & The Night Bird Singing Quartet, why he shifted from releasing records as JPW to his current band name and who’s part of the NBSQ, working to overcome self-consciousness about making music under his own name as an active music journalist, his fascination with birdsongs and rogue roosters, using your imagination on long drives as a kid, a deep interest in extraterrestrial life and spiritual searching, comic books and escapism, writing new songs, the status of his currently paused podcast Transmissions, other future plans, and much more.

Post date February 26, 2026

Buck 65 makes a rare reappearance to discuss his excellent new album, Do Not Bend, musical brevity, Joe Pernice inspiring him to start an insightful Substack, writing jokes and stories that wind up as rhymes, befriending the late great Biz Markie and hanging out backstage at a Beastie Boys show, meeting Lou Reed but being low key about their creative kinship, acquiring the four-track he once used in the mid-1990s to create new music but also incorporating Ableton, obvious and oblique pop culture references, when you don’t know where the words come from, why it’s healthy to listen to your own work, difficult time signatures for rappers, a loving celebration of vinyl record culture, many future plans, a hidden phone number, and much more.
