Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris

Viral indie artist Will Wood has carved his own path with over a million monthly downloads and sold-out tours. This May, he is setting out on his upcoming 10th anniversary U.S. tour!

While it may have served Will Wood well to fall in line with the demands many artists face when confronted with an unexpected viral moment, the cult singer-songwriter has remained defiantly himself. In the theater, Wood's emotive storytelling and standup intertwines with his widely varying style of music in a way that refuses to conform to either tradition, and when with his band his raucous "Tapeworms" concerts are equally unconventional.
His upcoming "Mr. Wood is Dead" 10-year-anniversary tour will be bringing both around the country, in front of larger audiences than ever before.
Will Wood is a pescatarian, collects stuffed rats, and lives in New Jersey with his girlfriend and a dozen or so rescued stray cats. To inquire about adoptions or donate to help cover their medical needs, visit https://linksta.cc/@SnooterFriends. (In partnership with Atlantic Critters Rescue)

Popular indie artist and podcaster Andy Frasco speaks with MMP host Darrell Craig Harris about his new album, touring, and much more!

Successful indie artist and podcaster Andy Frasco speaks with MMP host Darrell Craig Harris from his hotel room in Tennessee about his current tour, new album release, his World Saving Podcast show, and so much more! 
Andy Frasco & The U.N. have long been the high-flying DIY renegades of the touring scene known and loved for their kaleidoscopic musical fusion, one-of-a-kind onstage audacity, and contagious party-animal energy. The band’s recent full-length LP ‘L’Optimist’ celebrates their longevity, while giving way to a wiser, but no less enthusiastic, artist and band leader who isn’t afraid to lean into the introspective and explore more difficult terrain, lyrically and emotionally. “We’re not going to be able to change the world, but we can at least help the process along by being optimistic that the future will turn itself around. And if everyone changes their mind state about the future, then maybe we can change the world!
