In our seventh episode, 4MileCircus partners Sean Mannion and Nicole Solomon talk with Louisa Solomon and Elijah Oberman of independent rock band The Shondes about building and reaching an audience. We discuss outreach methods from their early days using MySpace and Friendster through their social media and email list tactics today. Sean shares a social media tip about Instagram “stories”, and we discuss some of our current favorite things including the independent comic Bitch Planet, the Rogue One trailer, joy, Family Ties, spousal recaps of classic TV, air conditioning, and The Paper Menagerie. The Shondes’ new LP Brighton will be released September 16 on Exotic Fever Records.
