THE JEREMIAH SHOW | KIMI KATO SHOW | ARWEN LEWIS SHOW | MIKE GORMLEY SHOWTHE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring Nicole SophiaLISTEN TO THE INTERVIEW HERE -  APPLE PODCAST FERAL is Nicole Sophia’s rawest chapter yet. It's a glitter-smeared reclamation of self.  Written in the wake of heartbreak, growth, and self-loving rebellion, her upcoming full-length debut LP is a love letter to the freedom that comes with embracing the whole experience of honest, raw emotions. From midnight snacks to bathroom hookups, childhood memories to spiritual unravelings, FERAL doesn’t tidy anything up... it lets it all out. This is not just music for crying on the floor (though it’s great for that too). It’s music for laughing while you do it. Fresh, flirty, and fearless, FERAL takes listeners through the complicated nuances of self-discovery.New Single: “Meet Me in the Bathroom.”Upcoming singles: “Hope That We’ll Figure It Out” and “Sex on the Internet.”PHOTO CREDIT: Sara SmithNicole Sophia’s Social MediaNicole’s Website, Instagram, Threads, X/Twitter,TikTok,  Facebook, YouTubeTHE JEREMIAH SHOW - POP CULTURE, MUSIC ICONS, & FOOD GODS  The Jeremiah Show - Please Subscribe - CLICK HEREHost | Executive Producer - Jeremiah D.

Their 2014 debut Driving To Hawaii quickly gained traction with its blend of youthful escapism and vintage pop influences like doo wop and bossa nova.They followed up with Happy Camper (2018), Honeyweed (2019), and Avenue G (2020), building a global fanbase and surpassing a million monthly Spotify listeners. After 2021’s Sequoia Moon and 2023’s Campanita, they return this June with their fifth album, Electrolytes, produced by Carlos de la Garza (Paramore, Ziggy Marley).The new record marks their first LP with touring members Winston Triolo and Anthony Barnett, and showcases a confident, concise sound that reflects on adult life with optimism and clarity. A decade in, Summer Salt continues to evolve while staying true to their warm, nostalgic spirit.Summer SaltWebsite: https://summersalt.band/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/summersaltatx/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_summer_salt_/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs4nrDXLuNz6NuCDKUS8FIQX: https://x.com/SummerSaltATXPhoto Credit: Andrew ReinerTHE KIMI KATO SHOWHost - Kimi Kato | Kimi Kato on InstagramEP - Kimi Kato & Jeremiah D.

Zuzik’s vivid imagery depicts San Francisco (autobiographical rocker “Easy”), Memphis (the shimmering gospel waltz “Between Midnight and Memphis”), weary drives between “interstate signs and painted white lines,” and youthful gigs and revels in far-flung barrooms.But the journey the Pittsburgh native chronicles isn’t about geographic pitstops; instead, her songs trace how emotional earthquakes and life experiences shaped her into the wiser being she’s become. Even the alchemy-referencing title alludes to transformation.Emily Zuzik’s WebsitePhoto: Pierre RobertThe Arwen Lewis ShowHost: Arwen LewisThe Arwen Lewis Show Website Airing Weekly On RADIO EVOLVE ROCKSThe post THE JEREMIAH SHOW | KIMI KATO SHOW | ARWEN LEWIS SHOW | MIKE GORMLEY SHOW first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.

Recording and Mixing Engineer Thiago Baggio Thrives with DPA MicrophonesCurrently working with Everest Studio in São Paolo, Thiago Baggio — a three-time Latin GRAMMY winner and nominee for his work in recording and mixing engineering — approaches his multi-genre discipline with a heavy reliance on DPA Microphones, specifically the 4011 Cardioid Microphones. “I love DPA mics; they’re my favorite,” Baggio said in a press release. “To be honest, I don’t even know how to record certain instruments without them. So, when I go to a studio that doesn’t have DPA, I struggle. The 4011s specifically are a huge part of my everyday workflow.”Whether it’s engineering música popular brasileira or jazz music, Baggio relies on DPA to honor the authentic sound of the artists’ work. “Musicians often spend their entire lives crafting their sound, and I never want to interfere with that,” he says. “That’s why I love DPA; the mics are very transparent and produce high-fidelity sound, with low noise and no coloration. I also love how detailed they sound. People spend years looking for a piano for their studios, for example, so I want to honor the integrity of that instrument and uphold that authentic sound in the recording, which is when the 4011s come in handy.”The post Recording and Mixing Engineer Thiago Baggio Thrives with DPA Microphones first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.
