Episode 147: Scott Montoya #3 (Soft Palms)

Episode Summary

Vintage equals broken, different flavors, and playing pre-noon shows. Scott Montoya (Soft Palms, Happy Sundays, Studios For Studios) Studios For Schools: https://www.ebay.com/usr/sstudiosforschoolss "Soft Palms, the brainchild of wife-and-husband duo Julia Kugel (The Coathangers, White Woods) and Scott Montoya (formerly of The Growlers), have announced the impending release of their self-titled debut album on July 31st via Everloving Records. The album is a feast of rich sounds and simple, comforting melodies threading together sock hop rock n’ roll, scrappy dream pop, and ethereal torch songs into a sultry, spacey, and sublime journey towards brighter horizons. The entire album gives off an aura of intimacy while also creating a broader, pastel colored world—a duality achieved through Montoya’s unique and meticulous recording process at the couple’s home studio the Centre Of Mental Arts (COMA), and the magisterial mastering job by longtime friend and collaborator Mick Boggis (Pogues, Mötorhead, 12 Monkeys, Joe Strummer, etc.) who has served as a mentor throughout Montoya’s recording career.” Excerpt from https://www.softpalmsmusic.com/about/ Soft Palms: Bandcamp: https://softpalms.bandcamp.com/album/soft-palms Instagram: @softpalmsmusic Website: https://www.softpalmsmusic.com Records: https://everloving.com/products/soft-palms-lp Merch: https://softpalms.bandcamp.com/merch Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/softpalmsmusic Happy Sundays: Instagram: @happysundaysfest Website: https://happysundaysfest.com Studios For Schools: Instagram: @studiosforschools Website: https://studiosforschools.org The Mouth TV: Instagram: @themouth.tv Website: https://themouth.tv Coma Studio: Instagram: @coma_studio The Vineyard: Instagram: @thevineyardpodcast Website: https://www.thevineyardpodcast.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@thevineyardpodcast
