LA-based indie rock band OK Go join us in the studio for the first time, back with their first album in 11 years: The Adjacent Possible. The band are perhaps best known for their iconic 2006 treadmill video for ‘Here It Goes Again’ — which was really one of the first viral videos, exploding barely a year after the launch of YouTube. They talk about this, the changing landscape of music and the industry, plus we discuss how they’ve continued to push the creative envelope with their videos, eschewing AI in favor of laborious practical effects and mind-expanding, how-the-hell-did-you-do-that concepts. And the mishaps that come along with that.They reminisce about meeting each other at art camp at age 11, what the DIY scene looked like back then versus now, working with the muppets, doing videos in zero gravity, and the effect of kids on their creativity. Plus their attempts to get hipsters to dance, not to mention singer Damian Kulash taking a break to co-direct Apple TV movie The Beanie Bubble (starring Zach Galifinakis, Elizabeth Banks, and Sarah Snook), plus much, much more.Stream "And the Adjacent Possible" ►►https://tinyurl.com/2bjeu6fjSUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55uFollow The Zach Sang Show:https://tiktok.com/@zachsangshowhttps://www.instagram.com/zachsangshow/https://twitter.com/zachsangshowhttps://www.facebook.com/ZachSangShow/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Back for the first time as a trio and with their first record since 2018’s Delta, UK indie-folk troupe Mumford & Sons join us in the studio for the first time while in the midst of their underplay tour — which just happens to take in tiny venues such as Sydney Opera House and the Hollywood Palladium. Having cut their teeth in the London folk-pop scene in the late 2000s alongside the likes of Laura Marling, Noah and the Whale, and Johnny Flynn and the Sussex Wit, amongst others, Mumford swiftly rose to international, GRAMMY-winning acclaim, releasing four, and now five records in the process. We talk about the writing process, working with Pharrell Williams and producer David Cobb, how they’re now functioning as a trio, plus religion, fatherhood, and the unexpected influence of dance music on their sound. They also open up about the joy of performance, to banjo-or-not-to-banjo, where have all the waistcoats gone, how Marcus met his wife, actress Carey Mulligan, and much, much more.

People are calling Maddox Batson country’s answer to Justin Bieber, and it’s easy to see why: while his vocal prowess is sophisticated beyond his years, he’s delivering his earnest country-pop songs about young romance wrapped in highly choreographed videos.

Now he’s playing the Grand Ole Opry, singing to sold-out shows of screaming girls. And it’s not just his solo work that’s popping off: he co-wrote Lana Del Rey and Quavo’s single ‘Tough.’ He opens up about the personal story behind that song (and some of his other hits), how a devastating sports injury was instrumental in his swerve towards music, towing the line between confident and cocky, TikTok fame, and much more.
