Hi this is Randy Randall. Have you ever asked yourself, how many things are too many things to do at once? Maybe you shift your focus every few years to new and exciting interests. This is super common with multi-hyphenates...or people with tandem professions, careers or passions that support and drive them throughout their life. I've always been interested in the hyphenate idea--how do people fin... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hyphenate Brian Girgus
Q: What was it like moving between the desert, San Francisco, and Los Angeles in those days?
Each city had a distinct scene and energy; the desert gave us roots and community, San Francisco offered a vibrant, art-driven climate and connections with other bands, and LA provided a sprawling, option-filled environment that presented new opportunities and challenges for touring and connections.
Hyphenate Brian Girgus
Q: How did Lowercase start and evolve into a bigger project beyond the two of you?
We started with Ahmad and Brian jamming in Ahmad's living room, quickly wrote four songs on a four-track, and the momentum carried us into early recordings and local shows, then expanded to add a bass player and move to San Francisco to grow with the scene.
Hyphenate The Phantom AD
Q: Where did The Phantom come from, and how did the project begin?
The Phantom began from a combination of a fortune-read backstory, a fascination with horror and 60s rock, and a decision to perform as a one-man project with potential live bands and an invisible backing lineup. It grew through consistent self-promotion and DIY practices.
Hyphenate Justin Smith
Q: Justin, what's happening, thanks so much for coming on Hyphenate, how are you?
I'm doing well, excited to be here and talk about Sweat, the new record Tear It Down, and the work we're doing with Vitriol Records.
Hyphenate Reg Bloor
Q: How is the Kickstarter's going and about the project that it's funding?
We're three quarters of the way there already after a week. It's a release of Glenn Branca's Symphony number 4, recorded in Zurich in 1983.
