#035 - YSCIO Special: Brother, Brother, Brother

Here's the deal, much like our current economy, news from the music industry has significantly slowed down over the past 4-6 weeks. Additionally, with everyone being cooped up in their homes, we've discovered that our families are actually more fun to talk to then we probably would have admitted a few months ago...so, this week we bring some of those conversations to you.

We each have little brothers that have surpassed us, in terms of intelligence, influence and success. In normal times, all of them are too busy to listen to our show, but these, dear listeners, are not normal times. So we thought we'd have them on to talk about how they're coping with the social isolation & what music they've been listening to during all of this.

First up, we meet Nick's little brother Alex, beloved by the family as the 'goofy one' until he ran off to West Point and got all successful...he brings goofy side back though and we chat about the music that's he's enjoying alongside his wife, 4 kids and a dog (hint, Tool).
Song: Tool - Descending

Next, we give Jay's brother Daniel a ring. We ask him how he's holding up in NY City, working at NYU Medical, newly married &, most important, what music he's turned to as he watches all of this unfold around him.
Song: Empire of the Sun - Friends

Greg's brother Austin closes us out with some tasty new music he's been making with his band The Austin Loman Project. The youngest of the younger brothers, Austin also resides in Maryland and works as a Physics tutor and local musician. We only find out near the very end that he also has perfect pitch, so we're really excited to come up with a future game show involving that! :-)
Song: Thundercat - It Is What It Is (feat. Pedro Martins)

As always, thank you for listening. Stay safe everyone!
