In Episode 057 we sit down with the founders of Beyond Beyond Is Beyond Records, Mike Newman and Dom Miniaci, for a great conversation that ranges from the Baker's Dozen, to running an independent label, to highlighting a few of our favorite bands from the BBiB label. Mike and Dom manage one of the best labels for psych rock with a focus on songwriting and improvisation that is currently our favorite brand of jams.
We would encourage all of our listeners to check out the Beyond Beyond Is Beyond Bandcamp page, and to grab a vinyl from any of the bands you dig. We've linked to each artists Bandcamp page below so you all can check them out. Many of these bands are still on the bar/double bill touring circuit, and all of them are on this label because of their strengths as a live act. Keep an eye out for them over the next few months, and go see live music!
Songs featured in this episode are: Garcia Peoples: "Feel So Great," L'Eclair: "Coke Mountain," Heaters: "Highwind," The Myrrors: "The Blood That Runs The Border," Kiki Pau: "Sarkofagi," Prana Crafter: "Old Growth Fortress"
