  • Stereo Embers The Podcast 0504: Jon Lampley ("The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, O.A.R.)
    Jun 24 2026
    "Notes To Self" For the past 11 years, the Ohio-born Jon Lampley was on your television four nights a week as part of the house band on the Late Show With Stephen Colbert. A versatile brass player who is accomplished on the trumpet and sousaphone, Lampley is also a singer-songwriter, a composer and now a bandleader himself who effortlessly presides over his own cocktail of soul, R&B, gospel and roots music. Of course playing every night on Colbert was a great way to get the reps in, but Lampley is no stranger to the stage, playing in arenas and ampithetters with everyone from O.A.R. and Lake Street Dive. Influenced by Louis Armstrong, Sam Cooke and D'Angelo, Lampley's sophomore album Notes To Self is a powerful, rousing and inspiring album that's filled with personal reflection, unflinching introspection and a deeply centered optimism. Filled with swagger and grace, Notes To Self is at once personal and universal and it's quite easily one of the most comforting and reviving albums you're likely to hear. And Lampley couldn't be a nicer guy--he's warm, he's gregarious and talking to him feels like talking to someone you've always known. www.jonlamplely.com www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers The Podcast Threads + BLUESKY + IG: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

  • Stereo Embers The Podcast 0503: Amelia, Cathy, Ian, Rob and Peter of Heavenly
    Jun 17 2026
    "Highway To Heavenly" The Oxford indie-pop outfit Heavenly formed out of the ashes of another Oxford outfit, the beloved indiepop band Talulah Gosh. With the addition of singer/keyboardist Cathy Rogers, by the time the band's second album Le Jardin De Heavenly hit shelves, their low-fi jangle became augmented by lush and spellbinding harmonies. Throughout the '90s put out a handful of winning albums including Heavenly vs. Satan and The Decline And Fall of Heavenly but they called it a day in 1996 after the death of their drummer Matthew Fletcher. The core unit of Heavenly resumed under the moniker Marine Research and they put out one lone marvelous album and that was that for a while. Did the members of Heavenly stay busy in the interim? That would be a resounding yes but let's also add accomplished. These are the broadstrokes, but you'll get the idea: Singer Amelia Fletcher, who, by the way, has been in The Wedding Present and the Pooh Sticks and guested on tracks by the Candyskins and the 6ths, is a Professor of Competition Policy at the University of East Anglia and in addition to being a Non-Executive Director on the boards of the Financial Conduct Authority, Fletcher was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire and Commander of the Order of the British Empire for services to the economy. As for bassist Rob Pursey, who, by the way, is married to Fletcher, he's a screenwriter and he ran the Touchpaper TV production company. He now co-runs the awesome indie label Skep Wax with Fletcher. An educational neuroscientist, Cathy Rogers was the presenter of the British reality competition series Scrapheap Challenge (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrapheap_Challenge) and Junkyard Wars, and she has worked as a producer for the BBC, ran an olive farm in Italy and worked as Creative Director for RDF Media. Meanwhile, guitarist Peter Monchiloff played in the Would Be Goods, Scarlet's Well (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarlet%27s_Well), Les Clochards, and Hot Hooves and he was Commissioning Editor for Philosophy at Oxford University Press and is currently Associate Publication Consultant at Lex Academic. As for drummer Ian Button, the former member of The Thrashing Doves has been a university lecturer in music production, he worked with everyone from Robert Forster to Dot Allison, was a member of Death In Vegas and is an in-demand mixer and masterer. Again, this is an abbreviated list, but you can see the members of Heavenly have been busy. But somehow, between all that busy-ness and other bands like Tender Trap and Swansea Sound, Heavenly are back. Not sounding diminished by time, the band's first long player in 30 years Highway to Heavenly is a spry collection of janglepop that's effortlessly melodic and unreasonably catchy. It's lovely work that ranks among the years best. And this is a great chat with three members, then five members, then two members. And we pulled it off without any dropping of the baton--this is a great chat with the charming, gregarious and lovely personnel of Heavenly. www.heavenlyindie.bandcamp.com www.skepwax.com www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com Stereo Embers: BLUESKY + THREADS + IG: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

  • Stereo Embers The Podcast 0502: Lost Leaders' Byron Isaacs (Lumineers) and Peter Cole (Lava Baby)
    Jun 10 2026
    "Maybe It's Just Me" The indie rock outfit Lost Leaders were formed in 2011 by pals Byron Isaacs and Peter Cole. Isaacs' resume was already pretty full at the time, thanks to his work as the bassist for the Lumineers and playing with the Levon Helm Band and Ollabelle. If that doesn't sound busy enough, Isaacs has also recorded and performed with Bruce Springsteen, Roseanne Cash, Jackson Browne, Amy Helm, and Joan Baez. As for singer/guitarist Cole, his CV was pretty full as well, thanks to his tenure in Lava Baby, long-serving the New York jazz scene and working as a professional audio engineer. Cole and Isaacs have been pals since the late '90s, playing in bands like Slink and Lowdowners in Stereom, but Lost Leaders is where the two musicians really hit their artistic stride. With a handful of winning albums under their belts like Hungry Ghosts, Promises Promises and their self-titled debut album, Lost Leaders' work is redolent with harmonic dexterity, melodic muscle and rootsy bliss. Their latest effort is producing the full soundtrack and composing the original score for the indie film RUN, which stars Sarah Levy, Adam Palley and Chris Redd. By the way, the soundtrack features Amy Helm and Samantha Fish and it's just wonderful Lost Leaders are about to hit the road opening for The Wallflowers, but before they do, they had a chat with us.
