Episode #5-Special Guest Episode: Matt Sayles- Carbolic Acid, Stormy Hearts, Tangos and Blue Lights

For today’s show I bring in a good friend of mine to host the show, Matt Sayles. Every so often I will be having somebody on the podcast to be a guest host of the show. Matt and I have spent many a fun evening hanging out and listening to old records and those evenings, in part, we’re the genesis of this podcast. Matt is a great musician who has experience fronting bands and touring around the United States and Europe. He also owns a record label, Philville Records. Philville is active in producing, recording and supporting various musical acts and I recommend you visit the website to check out what’s going on with the label.


Matt’s musical tastes are broad and pretty esoteric, which is exactly why I chose to have him as my first guest on the podcast. This, along with his enthusiasm for the history and varied nuances of the music make for an entertaining listen. Hope you enjoy the show.
