- Mdou MoctarE5
Mdou MoctarMdou Moctar is a guitar-shredding genius currently based in Agadez, Niger. A self-taught semi-nomadic Tuareg, he plays in a traditional Takamba style which, when paired with electric guitar, gets seriously psychedelic. His music was passed around via Bluetooth phone file-sharing in Mali and Niger until it came to the attention of Sahel Sounds, who got him to Detroit to record the epic Ilana. - Built to SpillE6
Built to SpillSince 1992, Built to Spill has been weaving whirling sonic tapestries around founder Doug Martsch's warbling vocals. Their delicately intricate melodies washed by roaring crescendos have influenced multiple generations of artists. Touring to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their seminal masterpiece Keep It Like a Secret, Doug was joined by members of Brazilian band Oruã. - Hand HabitsE8
Hand HabitsMeg Duffy has had an amazing career - as a session guitarist, as a guitarist in Kevin Morby's band, and with their project Hand Habits. 2019's album placeholder (that's the title - intentionally lower case) brought all of their monumental talents together in intricate songs with dreamy, transcendent vocal harmonies. - MudhoneyE9
MudhoneyIn the late '80's, Mudhoney formed as a Seattle punk supergroup with former members of Green River and Melvins. Promptly signed to Sub Pop, their Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge was the label's best selling album until Nirvana's Bleach overcame it. For more than 30 years, they've done things their way, inspired legions of imitators, and never stopped sneering at the sanctimonious. - MelvinsE10
MelvinsMelvins have been at the forefront of heavy music for decades. From their earliest days and through all of their forms, membership, and collaborations with everyone from Jello Biafra to Leif Garrett, they've never been afraid to explore and experiment with their own sound and influences. In this episode, they're joined on bass by Steven McDonald of Redd Kross.
