Hello music fans! Welcome and thanks for stopping by for episode 19. This time out, we have the very exciting Indianapolis-based band...Moon Goons! Devin, Jacob, Corey, and Brooke stopped by the Enlighten The Soul studio to hang out and talk about their soon to be released album, Lady of Many Faces, dropping Saturday, September 21st. It is a powerful record with 8 great songs!
We dive into their history as a band, how they came up with the band name, their musical influences, and their approach to song writing. Moon Goons has a very unique approach to their live performances that really has to be experienced to be fully appreciated.
They have an album release show set for Friday, September 27th at Square Cat Vinyl in Fountain Square in Indianapolis. Then they will be on the road multiple dates in support of the new album.
This is a band that covers several genres including prog rock, psych rock, hard rock, and metal. Goblin Prog is their current definition of music! Each of them are excellent musicians and who get their chance to shine on the new album. So be on the lookout for it soon! I really enjoyed this conversation, and I think you will too! Let’s get to it!

Hello music fans! Thanks for checking out episode 12 of the podcast! I recently sat down with Timothy Edward Carpenter, a Nashville based singer songwriter. Also joining us was cellist, Rob Lowman, who is currently on tour with Timothy.
We cover in a lot of ground in our conversation, including Timothy’s artistic journey, his musical catalog, and his approach to live performances. I was fortunate enough to see Timothy’s Indianapolis show right before we recorded this episode. His talent for writing great songs and performing them were on full display.
Timothy’s real gift is his ability to craft relatable lyrics that deal with observations, introspection, contemplation, relationships, pain, and healing. In my opinion, not many artist can bring us this authenticity in such a meaningful manner.
I know you will enjoy this conversation. So let’s get to it!
Songs clips in the podcast:
"highschool" from the EP, Prep School (intro)
"TV" from the EP, the boy from ohio (27:02) "stories from outer space" from the EP, the boy from ohio (34:52)
