 A very talented, up-and-coming singer/songwriter was in the studio to introduce his new CD. Listening Lyrics was thrilled to spend an hour with Colin Wagner, his guitar, and his voice.
Moonlit Wheat was born in a cinderblock cell of a dorm room when Colin found himself fascinated enough with the warm glow of early Mountain Goats records streaming through his computer that he devoted himself to pursuing the captivating witchcraft of songwriting. |

Listen now to a whole hour with Mick Flannery. Mick talks about himself and his music. Lauren Cole Norton joined in for this interview.
Mick Flannery was brought up on a farm outside Blarney, Co. Cork, Ireland. His first real connection to music was watching an unplugged Nirvana coveringBowie’s “The Man Who Sold the World”. After a stint in a music college in Cork, he travelled to the U.S. where he “wandered around for a time.” While there, he entered the U.S. Songwriting Competition in Nashville, Tennessee and, to his surprise, won two top awards for his compositions.

 Listen now - an hour with a very talented and articulate artist.
Justin Cox (from Winters, CA) started playing guitar as a teenager, and went on to front a couple of punk bands (Mr. Nobody and Stenna & the Poison Apples) during high school and college.
A writer by trade, he has a deep appreciation for sentence structure and storytelling. His approach to songwriting has been shaped by artists like Jackson Browne and Paul Simon, but his most formative musical years were spent listening to bands like Goldfinger, Against Me! and Fugazi. You can hear this blend in his songs. |
 After spending 3 weeks in Holland this show shares some of the music scene from Amsterdam. You will hear this weeks number one song. Is the Bieber on the charts?

Did I forget jazz - NO you will hear some Dutch Jazz. Some real great Dutch Jazz

 Listen NOW to the ANNIVERSARY show
Listening Lyrics started in late August 2012 but we are not counting the few first shows (call it the learning curve). A year into the show and with 25 guests interviewed you might say Jeanne and I have found a format we are comfortable with. To put it into perspective we are having a blast. On top of that our guests are given a full hour to share their story and their talent. For me personally its like spending one hour a week on the psychiatrists couch, I leave the studio pumped up and ready for the week-end. Yep, usually head to a watering hole to down a beer or two after the show. |
