In our first episode of 2020, we welcome record producer, label owner, and artist manager Dolphus Ramseur onto the podcast. He is the manager of The Avett Brothers and several other artists, and he brings a unique perspective to the podcast as a successful music industry insider who operates as an outsider. AND… Echo and the Bunnymen is his all time favorite band! He reached out to us several months ago as a fan of the band and the podcast, and as a fellow North Carolinian. This episode is his love letter to the Bunnymen, as well as a fascinating exploration of underground music industry mechanisms and the parallels between 80’s British post punk bands and folk/Americana, and how all this music, with its deep revelations of the soul and mystique, really comes down to “just someone singing and playing the guitar”.Playlist:Echo & the Bunnymen: With a Hip, Thorn of Crowns, Silver, All I Want, Stars Are Stars, Killing MoonCharlie Poole - Take a Drink on MeDoc Watson - Shady GroveThe Smiths - This Charming ManThe Cure - Love CatsTony Rice - Blackberry BlossomBuell Kazee - East VirginiaEtta Baker - Railroad BillAvett Brothers - Rejects in the AtticHappy Goodman Family - He’s Coming AgainHank Williams - Alone and Forsaken
