Rigs of Dad Prodcast

Thousands of horror movies. Hundreds of franchises. But only ONE that has stayed consistent: "The Evil Dead". Every week in October, the team here will be examining an installment in the franchise with special musician guests.

This week Ross, Ian, and Nat are joined by Josh Staples to discuss the film that started it all: 1981's "The Evil Dead". The film that put Bruce Campbell and Raimi on everyone's radar. The early embers of a cult classic horror phenom that spread like wildfire through VHS machines across the globe. A terrifying entry point? A camp classic celebrated for its failures? An ambitious new direction for horror films? Find out as we discuss it all!!

There is a deeper dive into this film over at the rigs of dad patreon page, with an extended and unedited version of this chat featuring more on the makeup, the hardships, the effects, and the famous "tree ---- scene", as well as early access to other conversations in queue, and more. Head over to the Rigs of Dad Patreon Page where you can also hear more unedited, ad-free interviews with previous guests, patreon exclusives, and beyond!

Ross put out an album under the name COGENTS. It's available wherever you listen to music and highly recommended for those looking to scratch their ambient itch.

Ian and Nat have a new 7" from their band Strangelight and you can keep up with them at their bandcamp page.

Josh has an incredible podcast called Forever Midnight that is available on all major platforms, but best celebrated via THEIR PATREON PAGE so stay cool by getting in on that party!

We all know that tone comes from the heart, but it takes an amp to get the blood pumping and the tone thumping...  That is where Alex Auxier steps in.

As Artist Relations for Orange Amps, Alex is the dude who makes sure the backline is the best it can be, where it can be, and that Orange Artists are always able to hone their tone with ease.

We talk gear, landing a "white whale" account, why Yanni's music is magic, and much more.  Fun conversation with a truly funny dude.

RE-UPLOADED!  Apparently there was an audio issue with the first bounce.
Anton has been wiping venue floors with people's jaws for a decade now leaving many hard of hearing as well as speechless in the process.  His band O'Brother just released their fourth full-length, "You and I"...  to no surprise, it is amazing.

We talk writing, finding their sound, honing his tone, and much much more.
