Ep. 9 MiniPop: Phoenix Ash’s Indie Sound

 

Ep. 9 MiniPop: Phoenix Ash’s Indie Sound

We are back, with the first podcast of 2014.  Our 9th MiniPop starts the year off with Richard, April, Matt, and Chris discussing the sounds of the San Francisco based, J-Rock influenced Indie band, Phoenix Ash.

The band has one album to purchase now on their website, Transcend, and then when they finish releasing the singles from the current album, From Dust, it will be available to purchase as well to add to your library’s music collection.  After listening to the show I noticed that I had the opening and closing mixed.  Phoenix Ash’s “Amberglow” is the shows opening and then “Setsunai” is the shows closing.  I apologize for the mix-up and will have to take this as a learning tool to pay more attention to detail if I am putting a show together when I’m sick.

The ComicPop Crew also got to visit with the band about their music and you can listen to the “Visit” by the link here: http://comicpoplibrary.com/news/ep-19-comicpop-visits-with-the-indie-rock-band-phoenix-ash/
