Music Music Music: the independent music discovery podcast. 

As You Do by Dream Optimist

Based in Oakland, CA, songwriter/composer David Marc Siegel leads Dream Optimist, a project that extends from indie synth pop/rock all the way into the occasional neoclassical instrumental. Believing in the power of constructed as well as found sound, David spent some time in the worlds of art punk, ad music, theater music, musical theater, short film scoring, and instrumental & even neoclassical songs before ending up here, in the world of Dream Optimist.

Inspired in equal parts by bands like the Magnetic Fields, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello & New Order as by composers such as Moondog, Kurt Weill, Danny Elfman and Aram Khatchaturian, Dream Optimist started releasing singles in 2022, eventually releasing an EP in mid-2023 entitled, “Seven Day Love Challenge."

Crawling by Grand Mercy

Grand Mercy is a rock band based in Los Angeles. They’ve released a 5-song EP full of guitars and catchy rock songs that verge on psychedelic from time to time. They hope their melodic and rhythmic sensibilities will satisfy the soul!

Good Intentions by Bob Gaulke

Bob says: I’m a public school teacher who enjoys songwriting and performing as much as listening and reading. I release new work frequently. Heavily influenced by post-punk, French, and Brazilian traditions. Here’s something recentish. Best Regards, Bob G.
