Fuegostine's Music Club

• Harrison Storm

  In this conversation on Fuegostine's Music Club, Matt talks with Harrison as he explores the complexities of performance, discussing the balance between vulnerability and the fear of being perceived. He highlights the unique connection that can occur between artists and their audience when openness is embraced.About Harrison Storm:Harrison Storm’s sublime second album, Empty Garden, casts a spell from the moment it opens, starting with sonic shifts from hypnotic pop and ghostly folk, which then swerves into rock boasting bold arrangements, layered backing vocals and lush instrumentation.The plan was a step up in production from last year’s debut album, Wonder, Won’t You?, which followed the Melbourne musician’s five EPs of assured alt-folk. To date, his songs have racked up 550 million global streams and aired on Triple J and Radio 2. His hit Sense of Home was certified Gold in Canada.Lyrically, Empty Garden deals with a break-up, digging into emotions and detecting patterns to prevent them being repeated. Never has Harrison bared so much. Nor has he ever been as open to advice.Some of Empty Garden was written with musicians on road trips and at writing camps, such as Winona Oak on “Someone Else.” Harrison’s main collaborator, however, was producer Freddy Alexander, whom he met in Stockholm last spring. Over numerous visits to the city and months on WhatsApp, the pair recorded ten tracks, a handful of which they co-wrote.The relationship at the heart of Empty Garden came to an end in late 2023, shortly before Wonder, Won’t You? was released. Harrison spent much of 2024 touring around the world, and on adventures in between, songs simply flowed.“With distance, you can appreciate the good times and be grateful for the joy that they brought you,” he says. “Without endings, there can’t be beginnings.”Follow Me On Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fuegostine/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fuegostine YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@fuegostine Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fuegostine

• JOSEPH

  On the newest episode of Fuegostine's Music Club, I (fuegostine) sit down with the band JOSEPH. We talk about their adjustment to being a sister duo instead of a trio, the evolution of their music, navigating the music industry and their upcoming album among other things. I hope you enjoy the conversation I had with Meegan and Natalie. About JOSEPH:For nearly a decade, Oregon-bred indie-pop trio Joseph have performed a certain emotional alchemy with their music, channeling their deepest inner tensions into songs that spark a life-changing shift in perspective. In the making of their fourth studio album The Sun, Natalie Closner and her sisters, twins Meegan Closner and Allison Closner focused their soul-searching songwriting on the quietly damaging forces that keep us from living fully in our truth (e.g., gaslighting, cultural conditioning, unconscious yet painfully limiting self-beliefs). Rooted in a newly emboldened sound that lets their breathtaking three-part harmonies shine more brightly than ever, the result is a body of work that radically expands our sense of possibility, ultimately illuminating a path toward greater peace and self-reliance even in the most chaotic of times.For Joseph, the act of fiercely protecting their artistic vision closely aligns with the abundance of insights threaded throughout The Sun. “As Closners and as women—or maybe even just as humans—it can be very hard to tell someone that something isn’t working for you,” says Allison. “But this album was a unique experience, because we learned to step up and stand our ground and speak our truth when we needed to.” And with the release of The Sun, Joseph hope that listeners might undergo a similar transformation in their sense of strength and self-assurance. “I want people to feel empowered,” says Meegan. ”I want them to recognize the power with themselves, and to know that they’re good—that they’re more than they think they are.”Follow Me On Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fuegostine/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fuegostine YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@fuegostine Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fuegostine

• Bryan Andrews

  On this episode of Fuegostine's Music Club, I (Matt) sit down with country singer Bryan Andrews and we talk about growing up in a small town, his turn to music from a blue collar job, and the country music and the state of the world. I hope you enjoy the conversation I had with Bryan.About Bryan: Bryan Andrews is a talented country/rock singer and songwriter hailing from the small town of Carrollton, Missouri. His journey into music began at the age of 17 when he picked up a guitar for the first time, driven by a desire to pen his own songs and make sense of the world around him. This early foray into music was a way for Bryan to navigate the complexities of adolescence and adulthood, setting him on a path of creative exploration.After graduating from high school, Bryan took a step towards formalizing his musical pursuits by enrolling in college with a focus on music. However, after two years of studying, he made the bold decision to leave academia behind and pursue a career in welding. His new job took him on the road, where he continued to nurture his passion for songwriting, often finding inspiration and solace in the solitude of hotel rooms.Despite the demanding nature of his work, Bryan’s love for music never waned. His dedication paid off when TikTok, the popular social media platform, played a pivotal role in bringing his musical aspirations to fruition. On Christmas Day in 2020, Bryan released his debut single, “Liquor & Pills,” across all major streaming platforms. The song quickly gained traction, and a viral video propelled it to No. 6 on the iTunes Country Chart.This success marked a turning point in Bryan’s life. With newfound momentum and a growing fanbase, he made the decision to fully commit to a career in music. His dedication was further evidenced by the rapid growth of his TikTok following, which now exceeds 2 million fans. Building on this success, Bryan released another hit single, “Homewrecker,” which soared to No. 1 on the iTunes Rock Chart.Through it all, Bryan remains grounded and humble, describing himself as “a small-town kid, just chasing his dream.” His journey from a small town in Missouri to achieving national recognition in the music industry is a testament to his passion, resilience, and the power of perseverance.Follow Me On Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fuegostine/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fuegostine YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@fuegostine Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fuegostine
