Behind The Scene Episode 28 - Fox Rodemich, Miles Eichner (Shady Elders)

"when I was playing this like really pretty, folky music I was like 'gosh, this sucks...I'm not even having a good time'. You know like, I wouldn't go out and buy my music...So I put it to bed"

Shady Elders has been one of those bands for me here in Denver. I was a fan the first moment I clicked play. Shady songs themselves embody everything I love in music. Dark, brooding and heavy emotional pull married with delicate melody and thoughtful prose. It's dream-pop/post-punk/sometimes gothy/sometimes poppy awesomeness. Their live sets are heavy, loud and engaging. I have followed this band for almost 5 years now and my fanship only grows with each release.

So naturally, I was thrilled to finally get them on the show to tell their Shady story. Listen below as I talk with both Fox and Miles about their individual musical pasts, the start of Shady Elders, making music that you yourself are a fan of, the struggles of personal relationships affecting the band's dynamic, going out of state to record and so so so much more!
