Dorian Wood - Songs of Our Lives #98
On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Dorian Wood! She’s probably my favorite singer in the whole world. Her voice just stops me in my tracks every time. But she’s so much more than that, with so many wonderful, interesting projects across mediums, so it was a thrill to finally get on a chat together. After talking about her various projects, we get into the weeds with the Prince song everyone is wrong about, “Blue” Gene Tyranny’s singular genius, Love, Stevie Wonder, Ike and Tina, Silverchair, and so much more!Listen to all of Dorian’s picks HEREDorian’s WebsiteDorian on InstagramDorian’s BandcampDorian & Thor’s albumSongs of Our Lives is a podcast series hosted by Brad Rose of Foxy Digitalis that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.

Marissa Nadler - Songs of Our Lives #97
On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Marissa Nadler! It was such a blast to connect with another life, someone who I have known for over 20 years at this point. Her latest album, “New Radiations,” is my favorite thing she’s done yet, and considering what’s come before, that’s a testament to the work she’s put in. We get into all of that before talking about when a chorus doesn’t deliver on the promise of a verse in a song, the effervescence of The Supremes, Mariah’s all-time status, Bob Dylan, Chris Isaak, Procol Harum, Hole, and more!Listen to all of Marissa’s picks HERE“New Radiations”Marissa’s websiteMarissa’s InstagramSongs of Our Lives is a podcast series hosted by Brad Rose of Foxy Digitalis that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.
