Minutemen were to hardcore what The Talking Heads were to punk. D Boon, Mike Watt and George Hurley, the three "corndogs" from San Pedro that drove the Minutemen style of Econo punk rock, understood that being punk meant breaking down all the establishment borders. SST records helped them get their first recordings out to the people, and also helped them create their own label, New Alliance. Mike Watt and company are the focus of this weeks food/ music pairing! Sitting in as co-pilot is Jeanette Dainty, an old friend who almost named her first born after the iconic bass player. We will dig deep into their history, the inseparable friendship of the band's nucleus, Mike Watt and D Boon, the impact they had on punk and hardcore music, and why they are still on everyone's minds. Don't forget to rate the show on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.   Let's hear it for our sponsor Izzy's Coffee!

Louisville, Kentucky's My Morning Jacket is the topic of this week's band-to-food comparison. I travelled to a remote lake house straddled between the North Carolina and Georgia border to discuss why this band is so important to a devoted group fans who also happen to be members of my running team, (the Rabies Awareness Running Team). We discuss the very beginning of Jim James' venture into the reverb drenched records, starting with Tennessee Fire and onwards. We will get into Jim's very earliest and unlikely influences, why this band truly needs to be experienced live, and a run-down of all the great cover songs they've incorporated into their live sets over the years. In addition, we pair up this hearty, yet delicate band with a southern staple food that will stick to your bones. We are once again sponsored by Izzy's Coffee.

Huey Lewis

Leo Sidran

For this week's band to food pairing, we examine the history of California's 80’s rock staple, Huey Lewis and The News. My partner for the journey is none other than Oscar winning producer, multi-instrumentalist, Grammy nominated composer, as well as host of the podcast The Third Story, Leo Sidran. Together we will discuss the deep roots of Huey’s upbringing as a child of two parents on different coasts of the country, the history of Huey’s first major band Clover and how they got the gig of backing Elvis Costello for his first record, the controversy surrounding Ghostbusters and it’s similarity to one of The News’s biggest hits, as well as how the band is currently dealing with their frontman’s recent hearing loss diagnosis. All the while, we pair the band up with an amazingly delicious meal. Thanks to our sponsor Izzy’s Coffee, as well as bread provided by Bakeri in Brooklyn.    Please review us on Apple Podcasts!   @hueylewisandthenews #huelewisandthenews #hueylewis #ghostbusters #80s #johnnycolla #seanhopper #billgibson #mariocipollina #chrishayes #backtothefuture #clover #marincounty #sanfrancisco #foodandmusic #leosidren @leosidran

What food is Huey Lewis and The News? Featuring Leo Sidran

The day Roland Orzabal laid eyes on a handsome Indian looking fellow in Bath England, (he wasn't Indian), Curt Smith and Roland became a musical force that eventually became Tears for Fears. They came to rule the world in the 80's, split up in the 90's, and reformed in the 00's. They just released a new record that's right on par with the rest of their catalog. For this week's episode of This Band Could Be Your Food, I travel to Asheville NC to talk with the number one Tears for Fears fan in my orbit, Ross Britton. We will discuss the musical history of the band beginning with their mod group, Graduate, who the coolest member of Tears for Fears is, (hint- it's not Curt or Roland), the meticulous process that the band undergoes when making new records, and prepare one of the most involved dishes in TBCBYF history.

Jeff Mangum and his fellow Ruston, Louisiana buddies in Elephant 6 had a lot of bands with a lot silly names. Apples in Stereo, Olivia Tremor Control, Cranberry Lifestyle, System Flying Machine, Elf Power... just to name a select few. Of all of these groups, one really captured the imagination of the indie rock world; Neutral Milk Hotel. With the help of schoolyard friend and musical companion Robert Schneider, the recording project that eventually morphed into the four piece we know and love recorded two incredibly beautiful, noisy and influential records, In The Aeroplane Over the Sea and On Avery Island. For authenticity sake, I head down south to record this episode with my old friend Ross Britton. He just happens to own my favorite coffee shop, Izzy's Coffee. Together, we wade through the swamp of mis-told fables surrounding the myth and mystery of Jeff Magnum and Neutral Milk Hotel. I loved the record so much, I performed the whole thing live.

Cheap Trick is on the table for today’s episode of #TBCBYF. Back in 1973, Rick Nielsen, Tom Petersson and Bun E. Carlos created the bedrock for Beloit Wisconsin native Robin Zander to step in and ride all the way to Japan and back. Cheap Trick is midwestern proud, just like myself and this weeks guest, Kyle Urban, aka Kyle Motor. We dive into the history of the band and uncover where Bun E. Got his name, the origin stories of how the band got its name and signature checkerboard look, the secret album they rerecorded with Steve Albini, and plenty more Cheap Trick trivia.

Marvin Lee Aday, otherwise known as Meat Loaf, is the topic of these weeks TBCBYF episode. He left this world at the age of 74 due to alleged Covid complications, but his legacy and infamy will live on forever. Alongside musical collaborator Jim Steinman, their musical presence in the world transcended all the musical trends in their time against the odds. How did he do it? I bring in my “in-memoriam” podcasting partner, Nate Hall, to figure out what magical combination it took to make this Broadway rock act create one of the best selling albums ever.

What's so bad about Foreigner? I bet you love more of their songs than you know. When band leader Mick Jones wrote the riff that became Feels Like The First Time, his double vision dreams of creating an iconic arena rock band came into focus once Lou Gramm and the boys jumped aboard the ship. Charlie Schmid and I once again join forces to ponder the question, what food is Foreigner? The really come from no one, specific place. Yet, you can find their music blasting at every state fair, roller rink, Nascar event and AOR station from coast to coast. This week's episode is sponsored by Izzy's Coffee.

In 1982, London punk-rockers Shane MacGowan and Spider Stacy stumbled into fusing their love of punk with traditional Irish melody, and a new music genre was born. Often imitated and rarely duplicated, The Pogues laid the foundation for many Irish rockers to come, including Black 47, Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphys and The Kissers. No matter how many other bands walk in their footsteps, “There’s only one Shane MacGowan.” Join me and The Kissers’ bandleader Ken Fitzsimmons, (a group that I played in for many years), as we dive into the history of The Pogues, the importance of the London punk scene on the band, what makes Shane an authentic voice for Irish culture, and a recalling of the time our band got to open for Shane MacGowan and The Popes.

Fugazi was not just any old band from Washington DC. They were an important musical and social movement that inspired a generation of kids to do-it-themselves. They were the “real” alternative to what was known as alternative in the 90’s, and it ingrained a conscience into everyone who participated in the scene that still permeates today. My old friend and ex-DC native Peter Heyneman sits down with me to rap about all things Fugazi, including our personal stories of meeting Ian MacKaye, how the band was able to successfully build their own business model that stuck it to modern-corporate society, how their sound grew and formed organically, and who might be considered the equivalents to Fugazi in today's music world. All the while, we find some choice ingredients to make an absolute staple food that can be enjoyed by everyone. This week's episode is sponsored by Izzy's Coffee of Asheville, NC.

People usually have one of three different reactions when it comes to the band, Wilco. They either love them, think they're ok, or they've never heard to them. Nobody hates Wilco, from what I can tell. For this weeks Thanksgiving themed episode of TBCBYF, I chat with my childhood friend and Wilco aficionado Eugene Kim. Together we discuss Jeff Tweedy's first band with Jay Farrar, Uncle Tupelo, the pros and cons of the various members of Wilco, including early line-ups, the Jay Bennet days, and the current gang with Glenn Kotche and Nels Cline, why Wilco has become the definition of "dad rock," and how ex-Lounge Ax owner Susan Miller has been a pillar in Tweedy's life. All the while, we will trade notes on a time-tested autumn dish. This episode is sponsored by Izzy's Coffee in Asheville, NC.

This week, we discuss the intricacies of Australian's contribution to classic rock radio stations around the world, AD/DC. When Angus Young wore his schoolboy outfit to an early gig in 1973, the look fused alongside their timeless take on rock and roll, and their songs have been inspiring young guitar players for decades. Tune is as I chat with Kyle Peterson, singer of various punk and rock bands in Madison Wisconsin, (including the singer of Bon Scott era AC/DC tribute band, The Bon Squad). We will examine how Malcolm and Angus young owe much of their success to their older siblings, the different theories on why exactly Bon Scott passed away early in his life, the formula that makes an AC/DC song like no other, as well as the impact they have had on our own careers as musicians. In the process, we will also uncover the secrets of an age old, hearty food that will stick to you like one of Malcolm Young's timeless riffs.

Since we just examined Rolling Stones and Living Colour, let us round out the trifecta with the 3rd band to play LA's Memorial Coliseum back in October of 1988. This was when GnR filled the final slot of a legendary 4-show run in LA for the Stones tour backing their new release, Steel Wheels. GnR happened to be pushing their second major release, Lies, featuring the dumpster-fire-of-a-song One in A Million, which effectively polarized fans, critics, and their own band members. For this episode I talk with Dan Hinkel, a former writer for the Chicago Tribune as well as an old neighbor from my hometown of Janesville, Wisconsin. We will discuss the origins of all 5 original band members, weigh the pros and cons of some of their "replacements", examine how GnR become such a rock force to recon with, and expose the perfectly crafted food/ beverage combination to tie it all together. Have a good lunch and please review us on Apple Podcasts!   #gunsnroses @gunsnroses #gunsandroses #duff #duffmckagan #slash #stevenadler #stevenadlerpopcorn #izzy #izzystradlin #axl #axlrose #axlroses #foodandmusic #foodnmusic #tbcbyf #thereplacements @thereplacements @slash @izzystradlin999 @duffmckagan @realstevenadler @official_axlrose #indiana #sugarcreampie #irishcoffee

In 1988 when the video for Cult of Personality catapulted onto the MTV cable waves, Living Colour was ready to expand the minds of music listeners all over the world with their debut record Vivid.

For this weeks episode of TBCBYF, we take a look at the deep musical backgrounds of each individual member, from their roots in NYC, how guitarist Vernon Reid and singer Corey Glover first met, and how the destiny of this quartette inspired many reputable and famous musicians to champion them right from the start.

What food is The Rolling Stones?

Pavement is one of the most influential indie rock bands of all time, yet the most obscure one TBCBYF has covered thus far. Although the band released their final record in 1999 and have been dormant since their reunion in 2010, they are gearing up for deluxe release of Terror Twilight, (produced by Radiohead’s Nigel Godrich), and a tour to boot. This episode is the first to have its food recommended by actual Pavement member, Bob Nastanovich, which makes this whole thing an extra, special treat. Join me and my old high school friend, Andy Hinkel, as we discuss how all the members of Pavement came together, the night they and David Berman heckled Nirvana in Hoboken, what sets Stephen Malkmus’s guitar playing apart from all the rest, and how much this “slacker rock” band actually, truly cared. All the while, we send a blender to heaven and enjoy a surprisingly delicious...   PLEASE RATE THE PODCAST HERE....

What food is Pavement?

Originally formed as Ronnie Hawkins and The Hawks, and later cherry picked to be Bob Dylan's first live backing band, four Canadians and a feller from Arkansas eventually settled on a legacy, forever known as The Band. For this episode, Nate Hall and I brew up a pot of coffee and sip bloody Mary's, as we analyze the power struggle between Robbie Robertson and Levon Helm. The two main Band members never saw eye-to-eye, but they still created a body of work that has transcended music for decades with a style all their own. To top it all off, we find the perfect companion food for listening to my favorite Sunday morning record. Enjoy your lunch, and rate TBCBYF on Apple Podcasts

As for as Irish bands go, none of them have achieved the captivation and near world domination that U2 has. For this episode, I discuss with former Rolling Stone writer, Bono-fied lifelong U2 fan and MomMeCare curator, Sarene Leeds, we navigate the band's history from, their first band meeting as a 6-piece in Larry Mullen Jr.'s parent's kitchen, discuss which members are Christian and which are vegetarian, a look behind the scenes of what hard-core U2 fandom really looks like, the effects of giving music away for free, and all the while, we share a modernized recipe of an old Irish standard dish. Enjoy your lunch and give us a rating on Apple Podcasts!

What food is U2??

In 1977, Sting, Stewart Copeland, and Andy Summers became a turbulent musical force known as The Police. The impact they had on music, fusing punk spirit with reggae, jazz, fusion and world music, is still felt in the world today. Since we couldn't round up the actual members of the band, we found the next best things- New York's Finest, a NYC based Police tribute band. Members Oscar Bautista and Alan Camlet sat in with me as we discussed the origins of the band, what convinced them to dye their hair blonde, their darkest record, how many recordings they still owe A&amp;M records, and the worldly dish we have equated them with. After you listen, please review us on Apple Podcasts. Thanks for tuning in!

What food are The Police

This week's episodes takes a deep look into Houston’s legendary powerhouse, ZZ Top. The band recently lost their talented and iconic bass player Dusty Hill at the age of 72. We are dedicating this weeks band and food pairing to their untouchable legacy. The ZZ Top tour continues on, but we take a pit stop to examine all of the mouth watering Texas dishes we could dream up in order to pinpoint the perfect dish. My old friend Nate Hall joins me as we discuss ZZ Top's origins, their previous side bands and odd jobs, how they stumbled into their signature look and 80’s success, the buffalo they used to tour with, and all the while enjoy a satisfying lunch. This week’s interlude music comes from Hometown Sweethearts, (including the song that was included in Instant Family!)
