Episode 200!! featuring Mike Mains, Smokey Brights and friends

Episode 200??? I can’t believe it. When first started doing interviews with musicians I admired, I thought I’d get maybe 10-20 people total to say yes to coming on the show. And now here we are 200 episodes in, and we’re only just warming up. I reached out to the person who was the guest…

We’ll spend time with lead singer and songwriter Ari Levin and learn…

Phil makes it his life’s work to discover that new band for you! His musical styles are varied and there always seems to be something for everyone. He also really knows how to keep the conversation flowing & how to keep it entertaining. If you’re looking for a new podcast to get sucked into look no further!!

This show always has me learning something new. A band I should definitely know about or even an entire new genre I didn’t know I loved already- Thanks to this show alone, I have dozens of new content creators to choose from and a constant stream of quality content for my ear-holes!

These guys are great. I love the interviews and hearing the stories from the artists themselves – they really get into their creativity and thinking which is super cool. But mostly I love discovering new music and artists that I’ve never heard before. They truly do find your next favorite band.

I was fortunate enough to be interviewed by Your Next Favorite Band podcast and it was one of my more enjoyable interviews to take part in as an artist. They asked very insightful questions, did research about me beforehand, and were genuinely excited to have me on as a guest. These guys love music and they want to spread the word about artists that aren’t getting attention. For any music lover it’s an insightful listen and I def recommend!
