No way! my favorite band is doing a podcast now!1!! Can't wait to form a parasocial bond with you guys!
My music discovery process is this.. Put on a playlist. If I hear a song I like, I will then listen to that artists music. If I like the first few songs I listen to, I'll do a deep dive. That's how I found you all. Through a Royal Blood playlist on Apple Music. The song Black Holes popped up and I thought "this is rad". I downloaded the full album, which was your only one out at the time, and been a fan ever since.
Works for us 🙏
Yeah...the hard thing is to GET on those editorial Spotify/Apple Music playlists ! Specially when you're a new artist !
Same!!
Love the podcast, love the real. Can't wait to you guys this summer
Sweet baby Jesus how did I miss this? 😮 this is so cool!!!!
I think the best way to get subscribers is playing covers of popular songs people are looking for. i hate that, but its the fastest way. and when you have a fan base, you can go with your own stuff. just like playing clubs with covers back in the day.
The point you made with Shakin' Off The Rust around 24mns is excatly what seems to be what PR people in music think : they can't really predict anything because the industry is too vague and pretty much every release is a gamble. I'm so glad it worked for you and can't wait to listen to what you and Paul are cooking
You talking about discovering Mutemath and now working with Paul Meany makes me incredibly happy. Love your music, please come to Germany one day!
As a "older" fan, this was really interesting. I don't use all the social media in the same way - heard a song we liked back in the radio (Black Holes), which got us to a concert, which got us to listen to all your music. Now I follow you on all platforms, knowing I want to see and hear all I can. I tend to find new music then that links in to others I already like... guess my outdated methods aren't the only way! 😂. All I care is that you keep giving us more music! And - support local AND live music all I can!
Descobrir vocês caras foi uma das melhores coisas da minha adolescência, vocês são demais!!! Mandam muito bem na música
Can't wait to see you guys playing in Brazil.
Brasileiro que conhece os caras? Eu não sou o único obaaaa
Somos dois irmão
Great to hear a podcast from you dudes! Also, love that coffee mug man. Dope.
Appreciate it!
Love your band ❤
Got to see you guys here in Philly last year. One of the best concerts I've been to, and can't wait until you guys come back!
That show was amazing.
agreed! 3rd time seeing them and somehow they keep getting better & better.
Next time you're in the Vancouver area, come on down and visit us at the Wild Buffalo in Bellingham, WA. Cannons played there recently and blew the roof off the place.
Loved the podcast. I completely agree about Spotify. I listen to my own TH-cam created playlists and go by my follows/subscriptions section. I personally use Bandsintown app and email lists from venues.
I miss your band so much! My last concert before the COVID shut down was The Blue Stones at the Rec Room in Buffalo. Please come back someday! 💜
Love you guys 🤘 Any chance you guys are playing in Houston soon?! PPPPPLEASE 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Omg yesssss!!! So happy I get to hear this! I gotta ask cuz I just moved to Kansas City, MO: Will there be a tour coming this way?

Would love to hear how someone can break into the music industry as a Tour Manager. I'm a director at a marketing agency, and I'm ready to make a move.
Gotcha 🫡
