Okay fans, strap on your suspenders, throw back a mason jar full of moonshine, and get ready for some stomp-clapping, because this week we’re talking about Americana. More specifically, we’re listening to the bluegrass-adjacent 2010 album “Antifogmatic” by Punch Brothers. But while this record features classic bluegrass instrumentation, the band’s music stretches way beyond the genre, incorporating elements of jazz, country, and chamber music. The guys discuss the band’s unique blend of experimentation and virtuosic musicianship, mixed with dynamic and accessible songwriting. Brandon also shares his early appreciation of lead singer Chris Thile’s previous band, Nickel Creek, and hypothesizes about the fundamental role of the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack in early 2000s pop culture. Plus, Joe breaks down before he can even introduce himself, and Matthew admits how much he loves big round bottoms.

This is our final episode of season 2, meaning we’ll be taking a short break. Thanks everybody for listening along with us this season. Make sure to keep following us on Instagram and we’ll be back before you know it. Stay Frosti!

Be sure to support the artists by purchasing "Antifogmatic" on iTunes or wherever you get your music.

On this week's show, we...

• bid adieu to David Crosby & Tom Verlaine
• spend quality time with the new Joe Henry record
• spin fresh tracks from boygenius, Fucked Up & Nickel Creek 

all this & much, much less!

Debts No Honest Man Can Pay is over 2 rock-solid hours of musical eclectica & other noodle stories. The show started in 2003 at WHFR-FM (Dearborn, MI), moved to WGWG-FM (Boiling Springs, NC) in 2006 & Plaza Midwood Community Radio (Charlotte, NC) in 2012, with a brief pit-stop at WLFM-FM (Appleton, WI) in 2004.

Welcome to Roadcase!!  Madison Cunningham is a native of Southern California and a two-time Grammy nominated artist whose latest effort, "Wednesday," is in the running for Best Folk Album for the 2022 Grammys.  And to further solidify her genre-spanning artistry, she was nominated in the Best Americana Album category for her "Where Are We Now" album in 2019.  Her development as an artist -- having been homeschooled in a fairly religious household, and not having been exposed to popular music heroes until her late teens -- gave Madison a unique perspective to build her guitar skills and artistry from a place all her own. Her music -- an eclectic mix of rock, classical elements, folk, and jazz -- gains even further texture by the strength of her gorgeous voice.  Telling her own story in her songs, and working with such greats as Chris Thile and Andrew Bird along the way, Madison continues to be an integral part of the "new Laurel Canyon sound" that has been influencing many amazing artists from within the heart of the Los Angeles music scene for years now. Madison is a true hard-working artist with an uber-strong work ethic and a heart of gold. So hop on the Roadcase bus for this episode and learn more about Madison Cunningham.  It's gonna be a great ride!!
