A Interview with Dustin Smith and the Sunday Silos
IMB: Let?s go back to where you started. What got you into your music career? DS: Music?s in my blood. I grew up with it. My mom and dad are both musicians ? my dad toured for 13 years. He played guitar and sang. There was always music going on. I?d wake up to music playing. He played live, and my grandma would [...]
Pieta Brown: On The Road For Mercury
I love it when I learn about an artist because of an assignment. I had no prior knowledge of Pieta Brown before I was told that she would be my next interview. At first listen, what came to my ears was the more organic/acoustic side of Poe with ghostly-earth undertones that flow in and out [...]
Kristian Day’s Favorite Halloween Party LPs
This time of year brings back a lot of memories for me as a child in elementary school. I attended Catholic school in Rock Island, IL, during the 1990′s. Our building was old with thick hard wood chairs and desks. The chalk board was green and covered in a dust that would make me sneeze if I got within [...]
Kristian Day’s Summer Road Trip 2012 Playlist
Since I am on the road shooting a new picture with Frank Meeink (Is This Heaven?) , I thought it was appropriate to come up with a play list of my favorite road trip music. What qualifies as good road trip music is something that shows elements of good old fashioned song writing and isn’t [...]

Kristian Day’s Midweek Playlist for June 28th
What is in my six disc changer this week? Zombi - Surface To AirI have been on a Zombi kick for a few months now. Its nice to hear a band that uses real analog synthesizers and not a bunch of software emulators. These guys are the real deal. [...]
Toby Brown: Life’s Too Short
IMB: At what point did you decide to put music in the front part of your life? Toby: I always really loved music and always wanted to play, but I just never found the time. The Marines kept me busy then I got married and had five wonderful kids and ended up working all the [...]
Kristian Day’s Midweek Playlist for June 20th
What’s in my six disc changer this week? Honestly only two and no I am not slacking. These are two discs to celebrate summer with! Boyd Rice Presents “Music for Pussycats” This compilation is amazing. I didn’t know a whole lot of about 1960s [...]
From The Big League to the Stoop Kids: An Interview with the Fort Dodge Hip Hop Duo
Fort Dodge has a secret. No, its not the famous burger joint known as Tom Thumbs (although that is one of my favorite haunts). A very underground hip hop group called the Stoop Kids (formerly The Big League) have been producing some very original music that have some heart behind them. IMB:Iowa is not known [...]
Kristian Day’s END of the week playlist for June 15th
What’s in my six disc changer this week? Hasil Adkins – Out to HunchSome great redneck rock n roll! Adkins came out of the Appalachian country as a one man-band punk rocker. It doesn’t get more real than this. Great tracks like “I Don’t Love You”, “Let’s Slop Tonight”, and “Rock The Blues” [...]
