S5 - Ep 1 - Recording Music, Playing Live & the Future of Music Festivals

After a long (and much-needed?) hiatus since 2022, Craig and Kevin are officially back with V2 of the Schizophrenic Music Podcast — and they're picking up right where they left off: unscripted, unpredictable, and unapologetically obsessed with all things music.

In this episode, the guys catch you up on what’s been going on during the break — creatively, personally, and musically. From late-night jam sessions to the challenges of recording, they dig into the differences between playing live vs. recording in the studio, and what makes each one its own kind of high.

They also unpack the weird world of cover bands vs. tribute bands — is one more legit than the other? Is there artistry in imitation? Where do we draw the line?

Finally, they muse about the future of music festivals — post-pandemic evolution, indie takeovers, AI-generated acts(?), and what’s missing from the current scene.

Expect real talk, deep dives, a little bit of chaos, and a lot of passion for music in all its forms.
