S11 E26: The Sick Boy Method and Wife Patrol with Maxwell Denari & Michael Cottone

Listen

On this episode, listen to The Sick Boy Method, an instrumental rockband from Muncie, Indiana. We were able to record them in February of 2020 at The Sauna, a Muncie DIY music venue.

Next, learn about hosting a DIY venue from Maxwell Denari & Michael Cottone, who operated The Sauna, a Muncie venue for a variety of musical tastes near Ball State University. Maxwell Denari and Michael Cottone ran this venue for almost two years. We also discussed Sauna Suit Recordings, The Sauna’s creators’ most recent project.

Finally, listen to Wife Patrol, a grunge-inspired garage-rockband from Indianapolis, Indiana. We were able to record them on October 5th, 2019 at Midway Music Speaks, an all-day event at Buskirk-Chumley Theater featuring over 20 bands and artists.

About The Scene

The Scene is a weekly public radio show produced in Indiana that features music in performance from around the great Hoosier state. Each week, we bring listeners an hour of live music performed in local venues catered by a team of human beings who simply love music.

Our goal is to promote the Indiana music scene by focusing on the music itself. We want to tell the story of the music happening in our own backyards, to be a spark of conversation between fellow music-lovers, and to give listeners a bit of context about new and upcoming artists, sometimes through interviews with the musicians themselves.

The Scene is produced at Indiana Public Radio in collaboration with Ball State's Music & Media Production department and is made possible in part by listeners (just like you!) and the Vice President for Information Technology at Ball State.
