This week I am joined by Frank Deringer, frontman for The Jake Deringer Project! Frank discusses his experience playing an after-party with Jake Cinninger for the first time last February in Madison, WI. describing it as the greatest musical experience of his life. He takes us back to the beginning of his musical journey with his family band, starting as a drummer and then transitioning to guitar.Frank explains the reason why they are named The Jake Deringer Project, even though no one in the band is named Jake. We discuss his musical influences, the fill-in drummers while Kris was away, Jake's drumming, and Frank's umphlove and fandom. He also gives us a sneak peek into the UM original they have planned to play on the 12th and talks about working on new material.Frank gushes about the guys in JDP; keyboardist Logan Dier, drummer Brett Oemig, and bassist Dusty Padfield. He answers some fun rapid-fire questions, tells us what's on deck for the band, and much more.Where you can this week's guest:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/actionderingerInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jakederingerproject_Youtube: @JDPbuddiesSara J Presents: Jake Deringer Project featuring Jake Cinninger at Gluek's Restaurant & Bar April 12th: https://datcmediacompany.com/sara-j-presentsCan't make it to the show?

It's the 250th episode of Dropped Among This Crowd and this week I am joined by Luke, Mitch, Skylar, and Hartland from Denver, CO-based band, Polysanto! We had such a blast in our conversation and boy did we talk about a lot! We get to know a little bit about each of the guys, and how they came together only 10 months ago.A lot has happened in that short amount of time including a lineup change, being on the bill for Solshine Reverie's "On the Road" series at Cervantes, working on music with Mike Gantzer, and writing and preparing for recording their first album.Hartland professes his Umphlove, sharing a hilarious story about sending Jake some hats and repping his favorite band proudly on the Spring 2024 cover of MTN Lifestyle Magazine. Mitch shares his connection to the very first time that "Weird Fishes/Arpeggi" by Radiohead was played at sUMmer school back in 2012. They each elaborate more on their journey with Umphrey’s music, and the role it’s played in their lives individually, creatively as well as professionally. We talk about the significance of music in our lives and how the term “jam band” can be a turnoff and maybe using “improvisational music” could change some people's mindsets.The guys fill us in on what’s on the calendar in 2024 including their first show in Fort Collins, CO, answer some fun rapid-fire questions, and much, much more!Where you can find this week's guest:Website: https://polysanto.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/PolysantoMusicInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/polysantomusic/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@polysantomusicYouTube: @PolysantoMusicNew podcast intro and outro music courtesy of Mosey Beat.

This week on the show I am very excited to be joined by lespecial drummer Rory Dolan! Rory and I cover a lot in our chat, taking it back to the beginning, growing up in Connecticut, starting to play music with bassist Luke at a young age and what it’s like being in a band that’s already been playing together for 20 years. Rory takes us through his years of Umphrey's McGee fandom, and how him getting to sit in during the jam on Phil's Farm at Red Rocks in 2022 happened.We dive all into Rory getting the opportunity to play in Kris’ place in Chicago night one and night two of UM's 2023 NYE run, what his homework process looked like; not only preparing to play the songs but preparing mentally and physically. Rory shares what he was hoping they would have played but didn’t, his typical pre and post show rituals and more!Rory also shares the hilarious story about the time he found himself on a Primus podcast with Les Claypool complete with a spot-on Claypool impression, personally, one of my highlights from our conversation.We talk about life, parenthood, and self-care and Rory also shares what’s on the calendar for lespecial coming up, including their new mashup EP coming at the end of April!New podcast intro and outro music courtesy of Mosey Beat.
