Jared Horgan joins us to talk about Emotions, his first album made entirely on his own: writing, production, mastering, ALL of it. We get into how he fell into a few ghostwriting opportunities, why people crave authenticity these days, and treating social media like part of the job. Dude's already back in music-making mode with new projects cooking, but for now, go stream Emotions and be sure to follow Jared to see what's next! 🎶 SONGS PERFORMED: how would you feel???Settle DownUntitled // Unreleased Track!☎️ CONNECT WITH JARED: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jaredhorgan/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/jaredhorgan✅ CONNECT WITH LOCLE GROWN: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@loclegrownInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/loclegrown/Help shape our show: https://loclegrown.fillout.com/clevelandmusicscene🗣️MEET THE TEAM: Jordan Laird: https://www.instagram.com/hilairdious/Jordan Urban: https://www.instagram.com/jurbzzz/Danna O'Connor (A/V recording): https://www.instagram.com/coolbijou__/Jake Conder (Performance mix): https://www.instagram.com/cakejonder/🌟 Please leave us a rating or review!

Its another milestone episode for the LG team - two ways! First, our performance mixer, Jake Conder, shares how he went from a long-time Frank Turner fan to being asked to perform at Frank's Lost Evenings Festival in Dallas, TX this year.  Second, LoCLE Grown turns seven this week, so our A/V engineer, Danna, hopped on the mic, too, and we made this episode a whole party that included ghost stories, Calvin and Hobbes, and one of our fave games right now: I GOT AUX.

As 4-piece group consisting of cousins, lifelong friends, and a father & son, Higher Nation has the kind of chemistry you can't fake.

We're stepping into new territory with Kyle Haunhorst, an ambassador for the Cleveland comedy scene and one of the masterminds behind the Cleveland Comedy Festival and Roast Battle Cleveland. Kyle humors us (lol) with the basics: what makes a good room for stand up, the unspoken rules, and who's about to blow up in Cleveland comedy. Our big takeaway: like music, comedy is performance art, fart jokes and all (Cleveland's #4 in the nation for Roast Battle, by the way).

We drank wine with Isaiah Linder and he shares the most emotional night he had while making June, the first album he recorded with his band. They'd be so good...if only they applied themselves.  We also challenge the group to a new game we're calling "I Got Aux!" (side note - this may need to be a regular thing on the show, what do you think?). We truly appreciate Isaiah & The Christians (not their real name, we think?) for re-recording with us after a technical difficulty the first time. This episode is definitely one for the books.

If you're from Neenah, Wisconsin: Tropidelic loves you. We're joined by our friends James and Rex of Tropidelic, fresh off the release of "First Light".
