The Show On The Road with Z. Lupetin

Steve Earle Jul 10, 2019

Show notes

This week, Z. speaks with Steve Earle. The three-time Grammy Award-winning roots ‘n’ roll poet and revered performer has been releasing fearless, roguish records for nearly four decades, accidentally becoming one of the founding fathers of the thriving Americana movement along the way. Growing up a baseball-crazy son of an air traffic controller in San Antonio, Steve Earle has never quite checked any cliché box or stayed in any lane on the way to his almost mainstream success. Host Z. Lupetin caught up with Steve on his tour bus before hitting the stage at ROMP Fest in Kentucky this past June. Steve has been on the road in support of his recent release, GUY — a tribute to one of his songwriting colleagues and heroes, the late Guy Clark.

Greg Holden Jun 26, 2019

Show notes

This week, Greg Holden - a Scottish-born singer songwriter and pop hitmaker with a series of increasingly personal, poetically powerful and daringly politically charged albums. Greg Holden finds himself in an interesting spot. He’s a major label artist who has taken himself off all social media and openly questions the need for the toxic digital society we’ve trapped ourselves in. His songs Boys in The Street and Hold On Tight have been streamed nearly 26 million times and the acoustic pop blockbuster he co-wrote for American Idol wunderkind Philip Philips has been listened to over a 120 million times, but when you listen to these songs a little deeper, you discover a depth and introspection that is rarely found in mainstream pop music today.

Richard Thompson Jun 19, 2019

Show notes

This week, Z. speaks with the British born folk rock rebel and underground guitar icon, Richard Thompson. With his signature grimace that seems to dare you to look at his album covers, his salty slam poet vocal delivery, slashing finger picked guitar style, and imposing black beret which makes him look more like a hardened revolutionary than a kindly grandpa who just turned 70, Richard Thompson is a true icon of rock and folk music.

Peter Rowan Jun 12, 2019

Show notes

Z. speaks with Peter Rowan, the affable elder-statesman of folk music, who was there at the crucible beginnings of bluegrass, and has joyfully jaunted across a plethora of ethnic music styles in his five decade-long career. These days, despite it getting harder for him to get around, he's still on the road constantly, and you can see him at Telluride Bluegrass and Redwing Roots and Rockygrass and wherever young folks and old folks are still gathering around whatever stew folk music is cooking these days. Stick around to the end of the episode to hear Peter set up outside in the sun with his Free Mexican Airforce Band to perform a sweet Tejano tune under the trees.

The War and Treaty Jun 05, 2019

Show notes

This week, Z.'s conversation with The War and Treaty. In just a few short years, the rapidly rising folk-soul duo has gone from playing high school auditoriums to opening for Al Green at Radio City Music Hall, singing with Mumford & Sons in Nashville, and recording with Emmylou Harris.

Chris Shiflett May 22, 2019

Show notes

This week, a renegade guitar slinger for who has spent 20 years prowling stages around the world with the Foo Fighters and has become a soulful songwriter in his own right -- Chris Shiflett. His new record, “Hard Lessons”, is coming out June 14, and he talked with Z. about the vulnerability of striking out on his own, the whiplash jump from rocking Madison Square Garden one night and a rowdy bar the next, and how growing up with three brothers in Santa Barbara helped him navigate becoming a dad to three young sons of his own. For those about rock, we advise you listen to this man. He’s been to the mountain top and has had to start over more than once, but most of all, he can write Rock 'n Roll songs that make you roll the window down and sing at the top of your lungs.

Hot Club Of Cowtown May 15, 2019

Show notes

Z. speaks Hot Club Of Cowtown -- the genre defining Western Swing trio that has quietly crafted over thirteen records, and has traveled a quarter of a century on the road together. On this episode, Z. was lucky enough to record two live performances from Hot Club Of Cowtown, and is there anything better than guitar, fiddle, and bass going full tilt around one mic? Both tunes are included, as well as an enlightening discussion about the scariest hotel room they've ever stayed in, playing together for over twenty years, and what it was like to tour with Willy Nelson and Bob Dylan...on the same tour.

Jon Stickley May 08, 2019

Show notes

Based in Asheville, North Carolina, Jon leads one of the most sonically innovative, shreddingly mind expanding, and confoundingly impossible to categorize acoustic groups, the Jon Stickley Trio. Z. spoke with Jon in a hotel bathroom a while back to hear his side of his guitar hero story, plus an exclusive acoustic performance from Jon at the end of the episode.
