Episode 124: Ryan Holley

today's show is brought to you by, "austin christmas". a new christmas album from same sky productions. available at http://www.same-sky.com/ hello dears! i hope this podcast finds you well and ready to get down! i am, once again, getting ready to go out of town to play some shows with skyrocket. they're both private parties this weekend which should be cool. i am sincerely concerned about the robe & slipper situation at the sheraton suites. i'll let you know how it turns out. i got an email from someone correcting a guest from last week. on this episode, i read that email. we could have a "twilight" situation (without the vampires and werewolves, because they don't really exist.) on our hands here at the "how did i get here?" studios... or maybe i'm just stirring the pot because no one likes my "baby fights" idea. honestly, i don't even know. my guest for episode 124 is my old friend and former bandmate, the fabulous, ryan holley! i met ryan long time ago when our bands did some shows together in san marcos. over time, ryan and i became friends and eventually he joined my band, johnny goudie & the little champions. anyway, ryan is not just a guitarist and sideman, he has also fronted many bands including, blondes make better victims, the wartime social. his band, a+ machines with blue october's matt novesky recorded and toured and garnered a strong fanbase. now he's dividing his time working on a new project with matt novesky and paco estrada as well as playing in chico california's dr. luna and other sideman work. ryan stayed with me a month ago and we sat down and recorded this conversation. i hope you enjoy it. i did. ciao! -jg
