Dadzapita (Shana Cleveland and The Tank Brewing Co.)

Barry and Abigail and special guests Matty and Maddie Carlson discuss Manzanita by Shana Cleveland and sample La Playita and El Farito from The Tank Brewing Co. in Miami, Florida. With this appearance, Matt, who literally just founded our five-timers’ club, is the inaugural member of our six-timers’ club. Barry called him the Larry "Bud" Melman of Pops on Hops. This episode came out of Matt’s interview of Maddie on her favorite albums of 2023. He also interviewed fellow Substacker Kevin Alexander on the same topic. Shana Cleveland is also in the surf rock band La Luz, who just released a new album! Watch Shana’s live performance in the KEXP studio. Matt educated us on the Mellotron! Abigail and Barry both entered Light on the Water into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music: Abigail with a comparison to Baby Genius by Eels, and Barry with a comparison to Rain by Hans Zimmer. Abigail shouted out Hoplark, which brews nonalcoholic hop teas! Maddie used Gold Tower to talk about her interest in tarot. Read more about the tower card! Matt compared Ten Hour Drive Through West Coast Disaster to 9th & Hennepin by Tom Waits. Though we didn’t discuss it in this recording, Matt is one of the most prolific men we know. He is a member of Harborcoat, The Stick Arounds, and The Pantones, in addition to touring as a solo act. In fact, Matty is probably coming to a city near you! Check out his tour dates! Abigail helped to host one of his house shows last summer, and it was an incredible evening. Matt also posts daily on his Substack, What Am I Making, which also has a podcast component that we have appeared on! Up next… Drag by k.d. lang Jingles are by our friend Pete Coe.
