So much great music gets lost in the cracks. Join us at Earshifter where we feature artists (old and new) often overlooked by the masses and radio. We’ll talk about what makes the band great and different, their background and their bestest-est songs.

Earshifter is ultimately about two things: music discovery OR if you love the feature artist in an episode, going deep on that band you love.

  • Great podcast about some great bands

    Great to see a new podcast like this. Change of Heart definitely brought back some great memories from the eighties. Are we old?

  • 5 stars for this podcast…a must listen

    Sean and Rene feature lesser-known bands providing a charming, thoughtful, unassuming introduction with a focus on the bands’ history, influences, lyrics, themes and musical styles. Equally engaging for the average music fan looking to expand their listening repertoire and the hardcore music fan who wants to go deep.
