We love when we get to sit down and have a conversation with smart, thoughtful women, and that’s exactly what this interview with Trousdale is. The girls of Trousdale, Quinn, Georgia, and Lauren, met while in a competitive music program in college. They started making music together and something really special with each other blending pop and country with vocal harmonies.  Their sophomore album Growing Pains came out earlier this year and details the challenges of love and life, and overall leaves us feeling empowered as listeners – something the girls say is just part of their identity. We sit down to talk about how important their friendship is to their creativity and dynamic as a band, and how they’ve been able to develop themselves as artists without pressures from the music industry to fit into a box.

This week we’re starting our interview series with El Paso, Texas indie-rock band Late Night Drive Home who just put out their debut record, as i watch my life online, a concept record about, you guessed it, growing up in the first real era where using the internet wasn’t an option. Our discussion takes us through the band’s journey growing up as the internet expanded in ways those who remember a childhood without it never really imagined. Now, the internet is a necessity, especially for artists who are trying to get their name out there. The guys of Late Night Drive Home have been making music together since high school, and quickly learned to utilize TikTok in the early COVID era of the app to help put their music in the ears of hundreds of thousands of new listeners. We spoke with singer Andre Portillo, drummer Brian Dolan, bassist Freddy Baca, and founding member and guitarist Juan “Ockz” Vargas about their ever-changing relationships with the internet and how and why they wanted to use their record to depict what it was like truly growing up on the internet. From dating apps and social media, to AI music and online porn addictions, the band shared all their positive and negative feelings and connections to the online world they’ve become accustomed to being a part of.

Bands throughout history have been labeled as “sellouts,” from Bob Dylan and Metallica to Black Flag and Nirvana. We’re taking a closer look at what selling out even is.  “Selling out” has meant different things to different eras of music – adopting a new audience, going outside the bounds of your genre, giving up your artistic voice for a paycheck, or playing bigger stages with higher ticket prices, are all things that can mark you as a “sellout.” In the year 2025, we’re still having this conversation – the latest victim of sellout allegations is Turnstile. Since their inception in the Baltimore hardcore scene more than a decade ago, the band has always pushed the boundaries of what hardcore is – sonically, lyrically, and visually. Turnstile’s 2021 studio album, Glow On, shot them to new heights and new audiences, garnering conversation about the band getting “too big.” And in this situation, “too big” kind of means, “more accessible to your not-so-average hardcore” listener, AKA girlies… and after a 4-year break and much anticipation, Turnstile returned with the release of Never Enough this June, and boy did the people have opinions; Internet critics are running wild, saying the album is full of skip tracks and that they’ve sold out. But why does a band expanding their sound = selling out? Enjoy this episode? Join our community on Substack to get all the news straight to your inbox!
