Mixtape Rewind: Unveiling the Stories Behind The Dusk Whales' Timeless Sound

Super Awesome Mix

It's a mixtape rewind with one of our favorite guests in 2024, the Duskwhales.
We welcome the award-winning Jenn Tully as our co-host to uncover the fascinating journey of The Duskwhales' Seth Flynn and Chris Baker. From the whimsical origin of their band name to the atmospheric and spooky qualities of their music, this episode offers an intimate look at their bond formed through shared history and harmonious tunes. Plus, get the inside scoop on their much-anticipated album "Strawflower Lane," coming out everywhere on August 16th!
What if the sounds of the 60s and 70s could blend seamlessly into today's music landscape? We explore the timeless influence of the Bee Gees, particularly their track "Nights on Broadway," and celebrate the modern yet retro dynamism of the Lemon Twigs.
The second half of the show highlights six tracks (including clips!) from the band's new album "Strawflower Lane". Hear about the origins and evolutions of the tracks as the Duskwhales become your new favorite band as they have become ours.
