RSR PC 024 Sean B. (our first ever employee!)

We talk to Sean B. about his move from Meriden, CT to Austin, Texas 5 years ago and what he’s been doing there – like working at End of an Ear. We also talk some real deep inside baseball centered around a Billboard article that went up July 16th – the day we recorded.

At the end we get real light at the end spitting out suggestions for Top 5 lists and Connecticut in general!

The Redscroll Podcast is a monthly show (new episodes on the first of the month) that works as a companion to what we do at Redscroll Records in Wallingford, CT USA. We are a record store that has a heavy emphasis on the left of center / underground music of the world. Whether it be underappreciated or just has a niche audience, marginalized or just off the radar it’s all of interest to us. With the show we’ll generally have a localized focus. We’ll discuss what is in our personal rotation at the moment. We’ll talk to guests who have to do with all of the above. And we’ll talk about specific dealings with the store. If you have input you’re welcome to contact us through email (redscroll@gmail.com). Oh, and please do subscribe! New episodes on the first of every month! (Subscribe on Android)(Subscribe elsewhere just by searching for us please!)
