Ep. 14: Danny Weinkauf's Kids Music Album "No School Today"

I talk with Danny Weinkauf, who's using Kickstarter to raise money to release his first family music album, No School Today (and a few videos, too).  We chat about his musical upbringing, what it's been like writing the occasional song for They Might Be Giants (for whom he's played bass for more than 15 years), and James Jamerson.  A lot about James Jamerson.

A fun interview (and if you're one of those folks who don't like to back Kickstarter projects unless it's a sure thing -- it's already more than 130% funded, it's a sure thing).

Episode 7: Adam Marshall and Eric Kreidler, Videos for The Bazillions

Adam Marshall is the driving musical force behind The Bazillions, the Twin Cities power-pop kindie band.  Eric Kreidler is the driving visual force behind the videos for the Bazillions, videos which have attracted more than a half-million views on YouTube.

The two of them joined me to talk about their new Kickstarter project, the origins of the band, where they drew (pun mostly unintended) inspiration for their videos, and a little bit about preparing a Kickstarter project.
