Episode 44: The New Mastersounds Drummer Simon Allen

August 22, 2019

Episode 44 of The JamBase Podcast features a “Tour Stories” interview with The New Mastersounds drummer Simon that was recorded at this year’s High Sierra Music Festival. Allen revisits the early days of the band celebrating 20 years together this year, with tales of unknowingly getting booked to play a living wake and the band’s early days performing at their regular gig called the Cooker, singling out one incident when a rowdy (and raunchy) bachelorette party almost took over the stage at the club. Episode 44 begins with co-hosts Scott Bernstein and Andy Kahn bringing you “The Rundown” in which they discuss recent fall tour announcements by Phish and Dead & Company and the exciting message posted by the Disco Biscuits.
